Quick comment re: Cerro Alloys

These are also wonderful for bending small diameter tubing. The alloy will
actually expand on cooling so it gives amazing strength.

These people sell small-ish (10 pounds minimum) quantities and it is very
reusable -- good because the stuff is expensive - $30 to $40/pound...

The standard unit of sales is 1.25 pound ingots so a bulk purchase might be
a good idea...
