Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Wire/turnbucklesDick..I got my solid wire from McMaster-Carr. They have a catalog on the web and their Atlanta phone number is 404/364-7000. They also have a printed catalog which is over 2" thick which they won't mail to a residence...only companies. The wire I got looks just right..low gloss, uniform and appears to havethe right softness/hardness. Music wire is way too hard for this purpose. The product description is as follows: Type302/304 stainless steel soft temper wire.081" dia., 1-lb coil, (52') $8.14...Carl Vought...Huntsville, AL________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Wire/turnbucklesThats a good point DJ. I was not aware of there being a cable-eye type. I was wondering why these didn't have the smooth radius like they needed to have. There was a slight radius, maybe .025. So before we made up the ends, I worked each one over a bit with a small round file to break the radius a littlemore. Next time, I will order the AN-170.Terry B________________________________________________________________________________
