(awesome find)

15. awg for 16 pounds
20. awg for 12 pounds

Hope your work place gives you/us a good deal!

This all has to be approved by the big big boss, so I don't know how it'll go.  They could say no or they could demand $10 / lb.

I'm hoping everything goes well here.  When you buy a lot, they tend to ask what it is for.  I plan to tell them the truth - that I am a member of a club of people who are nuts about wind power, solar power, etc., and that they will buy the stuff from me at my cost, provided it is reasonable.  ;)

That being said, they told me to stick what I want on a pallate, and they'll take a look at it.

I don't really want to get into the magnet wire business, so I don't plan on dividing up individual  spools.  Small ones are in the neighborhood of 7 lbs and the large ones are near 70.  I don't have any way of measuring out, for example, 2 lbs for someone.  

That being said, some of the spools  are partially used.  One of the #14s for example, has a couple lbs on it maybe.  If everything goes well here, I will itemize what's there.  So far, mostly from memory at this point, the smallest is 33 and the largest is 14.

I took many of them out and sorted them from largest to smallest.  It looks like quantities are lower at both ends, with a ton of #28 in the middle.

If they approve the idea of me purchasing it, I will gather a lot more information about quantities of different sizes.  But I DO know there is a bucket of 14, that there is a ton of 28 and that there is just about every different size between 14 and 33.

if there is around 30 lbs of 14 guage wire, i would take that at $3.50 per lb.

if there is some 12 guage let me know, or a similar amount of 13 guage

also if there is any of the really heavy rectangular section stuff, let me know

Here's what there is.  Most of the spools are untouched.  Some have some wire missing.  Of course you will be charged for what the spool ACTUALLY weighs.

Add $5 for me ("processing") is that fair?

Plus shipping of course.  I think those flat rate boxes are big enough for a small spool.

AND for full disclosure - they could STILL say No.  I pray they don't.

Sorry for all the trouble and the wait.  I've gotten myself all confused about what people want between the emails and the posts, and filtering out "wish list" stuff from actual requests.

I plan to try to get this all done at my work Next week.  So I'll get people's requests weighed, post my PayPal address, etc., very soon.

Here's the people who have confirmed so far:

etownlax - 1 spool #20
Angus - 1 spool #22
rcpilot - 2 spools #18

Everyone else's requests either haven't been received or people are still thinking about it, etc.,  Those 3 mentioned above are the only spools that are on the pallet to be weighed.

If you want any of the spools listed in the big list above, please post your request here, I will set them aside, weigh them, put them on the pallet, and keep track of which ones are gone.

No pressure - just trying to be better organized and actually do this thing, now that the price has been nailed down.

The small spools have been weighing about 10 lbs, FYI.  The large spools / buckets are approx 72 lbs.

Small spools can be shipped within the USA, Priority Mail, for $8.95.

Large buckets exceed the Post Office's 70 lb limit.  Looks like UPS is in the neighborhood of $45 - $50

Anyone else?  I'll be getting final weights and costs during the upcoming week!

But I don't appear to be on the list.????????????
Remember these emails from 16 August?????

Valterra,
Please add me to the list of buyers.
I will take 6 full spools (small) or 1 large (70 lb) of anything from 13 to 15 gauge., with my
preference starting at 13 and moving to the smaller sizes.

Have you given any thought to how we will get the money to you??
Are you signed up with Paypal???
Just want to be prepared, so if the bosses say "go for it", we can get the money to you as fast as possible.

Ralph

Josh,
Sorry I didn't explain properly.
I meant anything from 13 thru 15 gauge, so 14 gauge is perfect.
If I remember correctly, the picture of the bucket said 72 pounds.
Works for me!!!
