Nickle sheet

Jewelry Discussion

I stuck my foot in it and now I need your help. A buddy of mine was
complaining about not being able to find 18 gauge nickle silver in 12
" wide sheets. I told him that being a professional I could find
some. Yep, you guessed it, all of my catalogs only list 6" wide
sheets. So, anyone out there know where to find 18 gauge nickle in
12"x36" sheets? That info sure would be appreciated. My friend and I
both thank you (especially me).

Well, you could always tell him you found him some 12" sheets, but
they are only 6" long… Always like to be helpful! --Noel

R.J. Leahy Co. has nickel silver in 12" wide sheets, all gauges. They
have a one pound minimum order; they will cut the length you need.
Very nice company, small family-owned business dealing in non-ferrous
metals. 1-800-514-4106, or 1-415-861-7161. They’re in San Francisco.

Epaul: I suspect that if you give your regular suppliers, i.e.
catalog dealers a cal I bet they could come up with your item. Since
printing these cats are s expensive they have a tendency to any list
hose items they feel sure of selling. If ou give them the first
chance they probably will not only come up with what you want, but
also give you a better price than a new company that you have not
dealt with before! This has worked for me nearly every time. YOUR
regular supplier dos not want to lose your business to another and
will usually knock themselves out to satisfy your needs. They now
their own suppliers cut to their needs anyway and would take every
effort to fill theirs. Worked for me over the last 25+ years! Good
luck, Rick Blahnik
