    Why pay over market? Many suppliers will send you your wire whatever
    temper you want. My favorite is Hoover & Strong. They mill their own
    stuff, so you can get whatever you want. Rectangular wire 1.25mm x
    2.5mm in 18k green? No problem-- we'll ship it tomorrow! (Made up
    example). They were also not fazed when I wanted 14g wire solder.
