beryllium copper is really nasty stuff, even when it is produced by 
"cold rolling" mills, i.e., not heated at all, the operators wear full 
body protection, including boot covers, jump suits, and a full hood 
with mask and breathing apparatus. Let's not repeat the lesson told in 
the recent issue of Hammers Blow. It's nice to get some stock at 
reduced prices, but please be careful what it is you use.
Best,
Mike Schermerhorn
