Anyone knows where I may be able to find this gage? Jim has been slow in getting back. Julian does not carry it anymore. Thanks guys!

I got mine from Gremel. Rarely use it. Just wanted to have some on hand in case I ever do need it.

What are you using it for? Detail wiring Junipers?

If you can’t wait until September, I’m sure Jim will be at the Nationals.

Would 24 be too thin?
Telecom/data cabling and cross-connect is solid 24 awg. I work in the telecom field so I have plenty for my juniper and hinoki pads.
 
Copper fishing wire may work too. I had some my father left in his workshop I used for super fine wiring of hinokis. I threw it in a fire to anneal it.
 
Huh...just bought some from Julian not too long ago! Didn't know he was going to stop selling it or I might have got more.

20 gauge is pretty small. Won’t that do?

My go to would have been Julian, but Adams only carries down to #20 but American Bonsai appears to have 100' for $12

Fairbanks wire in Illinois carries it I think, but they're catering to the medical field I believe and is after hours ATM,
and they claim to have multiple alloys in different tempers including annealed. Otherwise may have to anneal your own
if #20 is not precise enough.

Thanks Adair. I use it for general detailed wiring but need it specifically for my Thuja that I'm showing at the Nationals so unfortunately cannot wait until September.

Sergio, I just checked my last order...it was in March and I did not order 22 gauge. Sorry for the confusion! It's not listed on his website but I think it used to be (I know I've gotten it from him before). Might be worth checking with him if you haven't already.

Ok thank you Chris. Checking with him right now but assume he does not sell it anymore. Not listed on his site either as you said.

I got some 8 gauge copper wire at Home Depot that says it’s already annealed, but I’m having incredible difficulty bending it.
