Re: [TCML] Tungsten for sale

[Carl Noggle <cn@xxxxx>]

You can get alloys of copper and tungsten, in the range of 10% to 20% 
copper, which machine almost as well as free-machining brass.  They 
perform as well as pure W.  My main gap has two hollow electrodes made 
from 1 1/4 diameter stock with a 1/2 inch hole for forced air (blowing 
radially inward).  After about 20 years of use, I can't see any sign of 
wear.  Actually, brass does quite well also.
