Other than proper suppliers for large quantities, what sort of
shops/conventional applications would use it.?
My local decent hardware shop has nothing , a local machine mart has
expanded brass sheet but that is too coarse. Would there be a
gardening/horticulture use?


Back in the day we used to get small pieces of brass/bronze screen
from autoparts stores. IIRC They were used for a of filter in
automatic transmissions. I don't know if they're still available as
I'm talking ~30 years ago.

in
there know all there is to know about car bits and could not help.
