I go through a fair amount of larger diameter magnet wire doing coin shrinking. I've had good success using a local vendor, Fay Electric Wire Corp at: Another source is Express Wire Service. Prices are about the same as Fay Wire and you can get small quantities quickly. Their website is at: Another great source of magnet wire with quick turnaround is BAE Wire in Sarasota, FL. They sell 10 pound spools and even smaller rewound spools for very reasonable prices. Thier web site is at: Hope this helps! Bert --Previous Message--

: Hello Bert:-)
: I have looked at Ebay. Becuase this is my first coil. It necessary to use
: a twenty pound roll. Oh! And what I found on Ebay, was old wire with silk
: or cotton insulation. Definitely, not suitable. Anyway, I will not give
: up. I also, tried a transformer shop(owner didn't want to get
: involved),and one motor shop. Many thanks again.

: I have been ableto locate a 20 pound roll of 20awg. magnetic wire. From
: one source. I believe, wire in the 22 to 26awg. would be a better
: solution. I see on Bert's site, there transfomer manufacturers. Any leads
: areappreciated.
: Thanks to everyone.

: Hello Doug,
:
: Your best bet is to look in the Yellow Pages for motor rebuilders,
: recycling centers, or electrical wire suppliers. This size of magnet wire
: is usually listed on eBay quite often as well - search eBay for
: "magnet wire". For Tesla Coil use you want to use
: "heavy" build (2 layers of film insulation).

: Good luck and best regards,
