There's a place in Houston called Great Western Metals. They have just about

Thanks guys! I was pretty sure this was the right group to ask.


He could also make his own by melting some zincs and pouring into a

Real pipe organs are made this way. The alloy is mixed and tested for

into a pipe.

Sounds like quite a project.
