Default I want to buy a solid piece of pure tungsten, 3 to 15 lbs.

And no offense taken. I've had just one bad experience with the folks
here - I think it's coming up on 8 years that one of the regulars here
has owed me a crummy $65.

I'll be at my customers plant on Monday

and will try to get some answers about the value and availability of
scrap. Do you have any preference or requirements for the shape of the
lump?

Cool, sounds great!!

Size or shape... Well, I'd love to get my hands on a piece that would fit
perfectly inside a soda can... But realistically, any shape that's fairly
uniform and not too sharp is fine. I believe what's been said here, and
I'll be happy to pay in advance once it comes to that point.
