Thank you. I also read that it was not sparking. I will probably stay
away from it.

I am surprised that the government is selling the stuff. It is not
particularly dangerous to possess or handle, but it is very dangerous to
work on. Almost any tool that you put to it will create a plume of
microscoptic dust, dust that is very dangerous to about 5% of the human
population. Beryllium can cause an incurable lung disease. My wife's lungs
were ruined by the stuff.
