Hi Terry,

It is confusing. Apparently, Sometimes wire appears to be labeled by giving
what gauge it is and other times it gives the diameter measurement for the
wire. So when I saw LM's list with the decimal zero one eight, I assumed
incorrectly that it was the same as eighteen gauge wire. Not so, silly me.
So anyhow this wire she is talking about can have a diameter of point zero
one two, point zero one five or point zero one eight. So I am ordering .018.
whether the measurement of the wire is for an inch or mm I do not know. 

I learn a new thing just about every day. That is what makes life
interesting.

Cathy
