Well, that's an interesting point. I don't think that piano wire (which is what guitar strings are made of) is stainless steel, no. Nonetheless, it doesn't rust in any kind of short order, so I wouldn't expect it to be any worst than, say, a chrome-plated can opener (i.e. if you don't look after it, it will rust eventually).
I've got several hundred metres of 0.7mm Nichrome stainless wire which should do the job. You are welcome to a yard or three in return for a contribution of your choice to the RAF Benevolent Fund.
It's Chriiiiiiiissssssssssssttttttmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssss!!!

I fail to see how the skill of the guy who built the shop has any bearing on the gauge of wire stocked. I am telling you, that you wont find that gauge in a model shop. That's all.
ALL piano wire with almost no exceptions, in mode;l shops, comes from here
Whereas guitar strings are certainly available in 10 thou, usually 9 or
8 thou and I have seen 7 thou. You need something that good for the top G on a 12 string. Or its impossibly highly stressed.We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember The Natural Philosopher saying something like:
Christ, but you're dull.
FWIW Usenet Nutter very kindly provided some wire which has re-enabled the slicer. The wire was stiffer than the original but it certainly copes well with mushrooms, stalk and all :)
