>Hi All -

>I am starting to work with my Industrial Tube Wringer, and am having difficulty finding metal in anything less than 30 gauge in precious metals -34 is good for what I'm doing now.  So far, I've found 34 gauge at Rio.  Of course, like everything else at Rio these days, its on back order - but at least there's hope.

>I have been trying to find fine silver, 14, 18 & possibly 22 KT gold, but every manufacturer that I have contacted says no, except DH Fell, who is looking into it and, if they can do it, will charge me something on the order of $25 extra for each item (above the usual metal and forming fees).  I've tried Hoover & Strong, Hauser & Miller, Precious Metals West & Rio - I think that's the list.
