Ampco 45 bronze
Is this worth the time to put on ebay, or can someone here use it?
Don't have much, just one rod about 1.5" D, maybe 3 feet long. If it's of any interest, I'll measure with a real stick... thanks, bill |

I've been wanting to try some bronze work of about that size, and would be delighted to have a piece to work with. email me with what you want for the material and shipping. Dave Hinz |

Unless you need the properties of this material, you'll be happier with something else. It's a nickel aluminum bronze, and unlike some other brasses and bronzes, no fun at all to work with. Ned Simmons Yes, true. It's nasty to machine, look at www.ampcometal.net for the particulars. Kind of a specialty material. Heavy too. Location is Escondido, Ca. 92027. Near San Diego if not familiar. -- Bill |

I discovered that when looking at it's properties. Not the friendliest stuff in the world. Thanks for your offer and advice and I will respectfully retract my message of interest. |
