6 Inch Copper Spheres



Original poster: "Dave Kyle by way of Terry Fritz <teslalist-at-qwest-dot-net>" <dave-at-kyleusa-dot-com>

Builders of smaller coils and experimenters that can use 6 inch copper
spheres will find a supplier in an unlikely place. Robert Manufacturing Co.
http://www.robertmfg-dot-com/ makes perfectly round, smooth 6 inch copper
spheres that are used as floats in livestock tanks. They are generally
available in livestock supply stores for about $25.

I have two of these spheres and they polish up very nicely. They can give an
attractive 19th century look to your project.

I noted that an aluminum 6 inch sphere recently sold for over $50 on Ebay.
The 6 inch copper spheres seem a better deal to me, being both more
attractive and less expensive.
