I was able to get a hold of a 29" long piece of "Nichrome ribbon", I am not
sure of it's exact alloy make-up, I was just told its Nichrome. It measures
3.19 mm (0.126 inches) in width and its .17 mm in thickness (0.005 inches)
as measured on an electronic digital caliper (new toy I just got, thrilled
with it, BTW...forgive me for going OT, Tool Nerd here!) I'm having trouble
measuring this low of a resistance, does anyone know from a chart what
resistance I should expect from this wire? I'm looking for approx .24 ohm.
(Jeff M. got an answer for me?) Thanks all. Phil W2GE
