Original poster: "x x" <teslamap-at-hotmail-dot-com> DO NOT buy magnet wire form Paramount Wire Co., Inc. / CBC Metal Supply http://www.parawire-dot-com/ I bought a 2 lb spool of 26 AWG wire from them and it turned out to be only 1.7 lbs !!! If anyone knows a good magnet wire supplier, please let us know about them. Thanks, Kevin Wilson
