Looking for Coarse grain SS 200mesh? powder

[RHankins]

Looking for coarse grained SS metal powder. About the size that would be produced by cutting SS on a metal bandsaw.
Any suggestions!

you could see if you could get some dust from a shop that uses only stainless.

Bruce you will see!
Guess I could have worded it better. Looking for fileings size grains. not really powder. If you have a clean pile from your shop that is all stainless I will pay the shipping! Butcher Block keep me in mind and good luck at the show.

I am eagerly waiting. I checked the ebay link that Finnigan found for ya, would that stuff work?

Might be a little finer than I need. Looking for the size that falls off the bandsaw.

I ended up having to make my own since I was also not able to find coarse powder. It takes a couple hours on the bandsaw to get just over an oz. I mixed it with 1084 powder and did a can weld. The mix did not weld completely but the parts that did etched out pretty cool. It had a "stars at night look" to it.
