Steve, If you want a roll of #9 annealed just give me a holler. Same with cable . Like Robert mentioned wire is going crazy along with aluminum. You can bet it isn't going to get cheaper with fuel prices rocketing u for the summer.  Also the old telephone wire referred to above is harder to bend than a nuns knees. I have several thousand bent in U shape to be made into swivels if interested. Makes a good swivel but etremely hard on swivel dies. |

If anyone would know anything about nun's knees it would prob be Rally  but he's dead on with the old telephone wire. Don't be trying to cut it with your "leathernans" as it will eat 'em up. JL |

There are 3 types of that telephone wire that I know about, there's the type your talking about which has a bit of "Spring" to it, then there's the kind that rust and thirdly there's the one we have here in most areas. I seen the stuff you mean that's really though to bend, they make good snare supports though. Steve, If you want a roll of #9 annealed just give me a holler. Same with cable .

LOL, set with wire for life! the bailer machines used 100 lb rolls of black annealed no 10 and no 12 wire. I got 8-9 rolls stacked up from forklift damage, water damaged boxes. Sold a few to buddies and saving the rest for own use and some projects. When they ship out these machines I might be able to get all the loose rolls off the wire stands as they wont want to ship them. If that happens might have some 100 lb rolls to sell in future. I may try to set up a jig on a lath and respool to smaller rolls and take over the wire market, LOL.
