the small diameter makes it more forgiving because there has been

Ever think of trying it with bronze wool? I have no idea what it would
turn, but no doubt it would change color, and it is copper base metal.

No. I never heard of bronze wool. I'll have to find some
and try it. The steel wool burns spectacularly when it
goes into the furnace, but some remains on the surface. Not
that that has anything to do with the results, but it's
Kinda Fun.

Thanks for the suggestion.

you can get brass wool too. both are used in the boatbuilding and
woodworking areas.
