Hi all,

I need to find a source of .030 to .035" brass, phosphor bronze, or beryllium 
copper wire, for making small tapered coiled springs.  Any leads would be 
appreciated.  Email me directly, as I don't always get to read this group.

Thanks,

Doug Ripka ([email-masked])

   McMaster-Carr has both phosphorus-bronze and soft brass wire. I think 
the brass runs about $15 for a 1lb spool of 20Ga. and about $25 for a 1lb 
spool of the phosphorus-bronze. 

Hope this Helps.
