I second the motion; I have standardized on phosphor bronze wire from CMA
(bought out by Tichy) for a number of years; it is stronger and generally
straighterthan brass of a similar size and solders far more easily than steel
(nor does it rust).

Bob, Are all other participants in this discussion named Bob?!? (:->) My
progression was originally brass wire, then steel for a few years and now
phosphor bronze wire for the past 15 or so years. In my opinion steel is better
that brass but P B is **much** better than them all. Try it you will like it! I
get mine form Tichey. Bill Lane
