Nothing I make out of titanium "requires" it. But I make gadgets & toys. It's considered an exotic metal. Just like all the other gadgets, toys, & knives that are made with damascas, timascas, mokume, mokuti, ziconium, etc.
When I need something quick I buy from George at American Metal Exchange. His prices are good & better than most, also offers other exotic metals as well now. Titanium Joe is also another good supplier but I never buy from them.
Most of my Ti 6Al4V is from ebay, dirt cheap, but unfortunately the deals are no where near what they used to be when I was "stocking up". I know cause I'm always looking.
This box is full of deals & drops that I got on ebay years ago. This pic was taken maybe 2-3 years ago. It's completely full now & I can barely even pick it up now.
I used to buy these drops from a guy on ebay. Each lot was like $50, I think there was like 15 pieces in each lot, maybe more. 1" dia. I bought from him numerous of times for probably like a year until he stopped selling them.
Dude, I think you need to offload some of those round pieces to me. 2" preferably. I'll pay shipping!
