Thinking of getting some. Not least for future science experiments. But for low-temperature casting projects!
But the immediate use will be consistent pipe/tube bending.

8 months ago The only seller of CerroBend Alloy in PT is for the medical industry: https://aureamedic.com/produto/alloy-cerrobend/
So you can probably imagine how much it costs … 💭

8 months ago Confirmed with the seller that the ebay listing is for 5 blobs totalling 10lbs:
Still think it's "expensive" as a hack/fix for the pipe/tube bending tool that should "just work" without destroying my pipes ... but I really want smooth pipe/tube bends ... so I just bit the bullet and ordered! 💸 🙄

7 months ago If it doesn't arrive before the 12th we'll need to ask Miguel to keep an eye out for it on the 15th 👌🏻
Note that it may still get stuck in customs.

quite tempted to buy some for pipe/tube bending #151
but it’s not cheap by any means… https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335233491180
But if it gets me flawless pipe bends with less hassle, it could be worth it. 💭
