    Michelle, There are many suppliers of titanium sheet. Most, if not
    all, will have high minimums. Start as local as possible. Try the
    Yellow Pages and search on line. If you can walk in, you can often
    get help with smaller amounts of scrap. It is how we all started
    years ago. When we buy our specially prepared sheet we have to
    purchase many pounds of each size. It limits our stock. We have seen
    a small amount of square Ti wire. It was made for shrapnel in air to
    air missiles. It is very ugly. But, no jewelry type shaped wire. Nb &
    Ti are notoriously difficult to draw(and expensive). Could it be
    done? Yes. It would cost a great deal and thousands of feet would
    have to be run. 

Good luck, Bill
