Someday soon....,  I let you know that I had a few pounds of #28 left over 
from my OLTC project that I wooda sent ya for free if you sent me back what 
you did not need:

But I won't tell you today, since this is sort of a bad day to let you know 
;o)))

Next time, if your having trouble finding something, ask us all 
here!!!!!  Many of us have like three "really built" coils, and parts 
laying around for about 400 more unbuilt coils ;-)))  I also had the #32...

A nice chart of wire and retail prices (USA) is at:

http://www.mcmaster-dot-com/asp/loadpage.asp?pagenum=695&descid=20337&term=Magnet+Wire

At the bottom they list their magnet wire.  People in other countries can 
always ask if they need help getting USA stuff sent to them...  Many of us 
are happy to help and buying stuff from these places.  McMaster Carr orders 
are like a weekly event for me right now.  Easy to add on stuff for others 
too...

E-bay has some terribly good prices for things like magnet wire from time 
to time....

Cheers,

         Terry
