I've got a question about copper bar stock.
I can get the copper bar stock from Jantz, how come they don't sell pins to match?
Can I go to hobby lobby and get pins for this bar stock? Is it the same? Or does copper really matter? Thanks |

There are different alloys of copper but I don't think I would worry about it much. Copper pin stock usually isn't hard to find. If Jantz doesn't have it then look at some of the other suppliers....

Go to a hardware store and look for bare copper wire. You will have to straighten it but that shouldn't be too bad. A hobby shop may have it too.

Any hobby shop should have that small pin stock and probably most hardware stores too ...
