Aaron,

Thanks for the offer. Do you know anything about the mechanical properties of tungsten and tungsten alloys? I'm not sure what grade or alloy would be suitable. I know the thoriated tungsten electrodes used in TIG welding SS are a bit brittle. It would be an interesting experiment if not too costly. My gun is set up for 9/32 (7.14mm) shafts. Any engineers out there?

Cheers,
TJ
