Yes, for the Internet sake, those were the only ones I found.  I tried
several other from industrial supplier catalogs, yellow pages and other
sources... Internet saved the day :)

Ni-Cr wire is a little bit more industrial base than for example
magnetic wire, it was very easy to find 10 years ago, very few people
still rebuilding transformers and motors at home.

So repeating what someone said weeks ago; "If you can't find at
Digikey..."  :)
