I haven't used it yet, but believe that it is the right material for the older instruments, such as your square project, and instruments older than that. I will be placing an order this week to do some early instrument work. According to Juan Mas Cabré, many shops in Europe use this wire. Also two shops in the U.S. specializing in older instruments currently use the wire. Scaling is of course an issue. Ralph Thorn
