[SEL] welding cable

[Joe Prindle]

High end welding cable consists of really fine strands of wire that are tin plated to stop corrosion. When a cheapo cable gets used and the jacket gets skinned, moisture gets into the strands and you get a big green swollen spot that eventually causes the cable to fail. Do a google search on tinned welding cable if you like.

It's  silver.  BIG BUKS.



Arnie,

Sure would be nice if it was silver.  Maybe I will take it to my  jewelry 
buddy for evaluation.

Rick,

Seems that when I scrape it, it looks coppery then the copperish  color 
disappears with more scraping.
