WJN Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Years ago, (more than I care to mention) I needed a supply of fine gauge nichrome wire. I found a tool that looked kind of like a scroll saw that used 2 "D" batteries & a hot nichrome wire for cutting styrofoam. I cannabalized it and the supply lasted for years. I realize that might not be much help, as I haven't seen one in years, but maybe this will lead in a new investigative direction. Many appliances use nichrome wire- toasters, hair dryers, & curling irons leap to mind, but they usually use a heavier gauge wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robothut Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Buy any old toy that had a smoker in it, the cheepest would be the Magic MIke robots that can be had for 1 buck or so, not all Tommy Magic Mikes were smokers so look for the hole in the mouth if your not sure.
