John Wechselberger (8)

John Wechselberger lives near a scrap metal dealer who gets surplus metals from all sorts of aerospace industries in southern California. He has supplied me with large quantities of some very nice metals, for my collection and for use in the museum displays I am building with Max Whitby. If you like any of the things listed as coming from him, check the eBay seller akilawolf (click here to look up current auctions): John prefers to sell his elements that way.
