Here's a related question about memory wire, or nitinol wire. I'm looking for something that is difficult to cut, and extremely flexible. I'm thinking that the nitinol wire meets my flexibility requirements, but I can't find a spec sheet that will tell me whether it will be easy to cut or not...
Thanks for all the replies people! bokers.com looks like an option, as might be a chemical etching process. We have another part made that way already, it didn't occur to me that it would make sense for this one as well. I'll look into it.
Greetings,
I have need for a shim washer of 1" OD, and ideally 0.9" ID, but possibly as small as 0.85" ID. Any thickness from 0.005" to 0.010" would work. Material is unimportant, other than it be reasonably tough and bondable with cyanoacrylate adhesive (loc-tite, crazy-glue, etc.).

We took apart my Timex watch today and hooked it up to the silly-scope. Turns out, Greg is right, they don't use a pure tone at all. It seems they charge up a coil, and...
The simple answer (IRstuff) is, i've taken apart many watches in the past and already know how a watch back is constructed, at least in as much detail as I could get by taking one apart. I know the buzzer is stuck to the back fairly rigidly.
What I don't know is what timex has done that makes...
Hi all,
I'm assisting with the design of a wrist-based alarm that must fit into a wrist-watch enclosure. We've sourced a wristwatch case (plastic with rubber-like overmold and integrated rubber strap) that has a screw-on metal (stainless) back. We've also sourced the largest piezo-electric...
