Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a cheap/good supplier of enamelled copper wire for winding coils?
Need 20swg about 150metres, i dont want to buy small rolls from Jaycar (too expensive and too much waste from unfinished rolls) so looking for larger spools.


Thanks, Doug

Hi Doug

Look in the phone book for motor re-winders, they buy the stuff in big spools, about 25kg I think. Usually they sell it by the kg, but depends on who you talk to.
