Solid copper has specific Wire Fusing Current ratings in air.
So I am doing basic calculations to figure out what the rating of my fuses would be and adding on another 10% based on the SiO2/Mineral oil mix I am using inside the cylinder for filament heat management and dampening.
I am all for going DIY, 250 dollars for a fuse is kind of outrageous, multiply that by 10 for the total number of fuses used in my system, and that adds up very very quickly.
I should have the wire this week, and will make sure to report back on how it all goes.
