Speaking of Magnesium...
Anyone have a small chunk of it they'd part with if I sent you a UPS label?

I have about a half-handful of some Mg chips 0.001 thick, total weight 4.4 grams, including the Ziploc(r) bag (sandwich size). They've been lying around for a couple of years, as I try to figure out how to use them for a spiffy pyrotechnic of some kind. :-) They flare up real good when you light them, and the flash lasts for about a second.

Phil, If you are offering it and don't mind sticking it in a package and slapping a UPS label on it (I'll e-mail you the label), I'd gladly receive it - presuming it's shipping from the lower 48 US states. -- Regards, Joe Agro, Jr. (800) 871-5022 01.908.542.0244 Automatic / Pneumatic Drills: http://www.AutoDrill.com Multiple Spindle Drills: http://www.Multi-Drill.com Production Tapping: http://Production-Tapping-Equipment.com/ Flagship Site: http://www.Drill-N-Tap.com VIDEOS: http://www.youtube.com/user/AutoDrill TWITTER: http://twitter.com/AutoDrill FACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/AutoDrill V8013-R |

You have options based on your size requirements.
For a piece abut 4' long, about 1 - 1 1/2" diameter with a steel core wire about 3/16" in diameter you can buy a replacement anode for a HWS - In oz it would set you back around $30 new, free if you want to scrap or salvage (but then it'd be smaller) For blocks up to 18" x 3" x4" talk to large machinery manufacturers about galvanic protection anodes - I have a couple which are zinc, and a couple which are mag. no idea on cost since these were freebies from a job - brand cast in is AMAG.

On rereading, I see "email" - that would be "richgrise" shift-2 "yahoo"
period "com." I'll shoot you a label momentarily.
