copper wire

HDR uses copper wire. This is expensive. Spool for 1000 feet is going up. Coils cost more money. Well, that is to be expected as inflation ramps up. Steven Gibbs told me that an HDR uses over 200 feet of 21 gauge copper wire.

Record high for copper

2011 is starting out as a banner year. I am talking about max prices. For example, an all time record high for copper. OK some blame a weak dollar for the high price. Sadly, there are many more reasons. I feel a shortage is coming. Basically, it will make for expensive wire. This will certainly affect us. Steven Gibbs electromagnet contains at least ten pounds of copper magnet wire. High cost of copper will drive up his prices.
