Wednesday/ my elements collection (so far)

Check out my elements collection, mostly metals.  The little cylinder of pure Tungsten (W), and the mini-ingot of Zinc (Zn) are new additions.  I’m trying not to buy everything all at once from the wonderful website for Metallium Inc. based in Watertown, Massachusetts!

Admittedly, my collection has a long way to go.  I don’t even have pieces of iron or chrome in there, for example.  The hunt for those is on!

My elements collection counts only 14 elements so far. It has coins made from pure nickel, aluminum, silver, copper and gold. The yellow metal cone is brass (alloy of copper and zinc, so not an element).  That drill bit does not count as an element either: it is stainless steel with tungsten carbide cutting edges.
