Two kinds of brass, 'red brass' (higher copper content) & 'yellow brass' (higher tin content, more
gold color); different vendors may carry either or one only, so know which one you want.
Metalliforus is good, as mentioned: http://www.metalliferous.com/index.html
I think you can also buy it at Rio Grande Jewelry Supply, though their catalog is not online, you
can call them: www.riogrande.com
Also, check out Indian Jewelry Supply at: http://www.ijsinc.com/
Catalog online, and they will send you a CD catalog; didn't see yellow brass on their page.
Also, some of the smaller hardware stores, like Ace, will carry a display from 'K&S' metals
company, in a white and red container, with all shapes and sizes of brass and steel sheet, tubes,
wires, etc. They are reasonably priced; and would be local.
Good luck, Hillary
