    You still can't use a Koil Kutter with it though
    I dont know much about this subject, bit as these metals cant be soldered won't precut rings do? Perhaps they are not in useful sizes? What's the answer George? Maybe I should stick to what I Know. Kind regards Dennis.

    Spot on Dennis. It's hard to get rings in all the sizes maillers want. Part of the problem with using these metals, though, is that they're not only hard to cut, but they're hard to coil as well, the springback is great enough to need a lot of recalculation to get them right in the first place. I buy in all my titanium and niobium rings. I do cut my own in steel, but only by hand.
