    I like 2% lanthanated I have to order them from diamond ground but they hold up alot better than 1.5% lanthanated. They are $24 a box for 3/16th and $14 for 1/16th Nice work by the way.

    its on here somewhere else, but try weldingcity.com. they dont have 2%lath but the 1.5 are dirt cheap. 8.90 for ten 1/16"... also considering at my LWS a ten padck of 2% thoriated 1/8" was 100$!!!, weldingcity was only 25.... even with shipping i still save a lot of money
