16 gague stainless steel high tensile wire. Let me know if you find a cheap supply.

me too ebay guys are getting expensive but rutherfords do 100,s not sure on price few quid but strong steel gage so i guess if ya making ya weights get the thickness wire first before making or they wont fit

You need to get pally with a 'TIG' welder, they have unlimited supplies of 1.5mm stainless wire.
