I have glass wool in my mufflers. IT doesnt burn either.

Walmart has these for DIRT CHEAP!!

Few Dollars for different size strands!! BULK PACK TOO.

 

walmarts probably arent stainless if theyre really cheap. most wool is regular low carbon steel.

Buy the one made for the dishes/pots/pan. They are stainless.

 

the strands arent very small on the pots and pan scrubbers though. Not that they wouldent work but I bet the finer stuff works better to tame the mighty roar of a honduh. $33/lb is a bit much though...maybe a machine shop could make some for cheap or something.

 

yeah unfortunately i dont believe machine shops separate their stainless and low carbon wastes, lol

 

McMaster-Carr has 5 lb reels of type 424 stainless steel wool. 3 different grades, coarse $66.93, medium $66.93, Fine $81.45. My catalog is a couple of years old, 3500 pages of the most interesting things you can imagine. http://www.mcmaster.com

uh huh, thats why I said "make you some" not "sweep up some **** from behind the lathe"

 

yeah i already looked at mcmaster earlier yesterday. those prices are so bad.

and i was talking about free bail, lol.just walk in and start taking their shaving from the big barrel next to the lathe

 

Im sure some machinist here on HT, wont mind helping you out with their Shavings from their shop.
