Question Who has nickel silver tubing?

I am looking for tubing in nickel silver. I use sterling for coring as well but on some occasions, I am wanting to core beads with the silver colour without the cost. I have tried aluminum but I don't like the way the aluminum works up and find it difficult to work with.

I'm looking to fit 3/16" for sure and possibly also 3/32".

I love making Nickel Silver caps because it etches so nicely but I've never been able to find the tubing in the size we need. I usually just pair the NS caps with a brass core.

Great, Dawn! Thanks for sharing that. I have some nickel siver sheet that I had planned to etch but haven't tried yet. Glad to see it will work well. It's nice with the brass core.
