Sorry if this is a FAQ, but where can I get hold of some Nitinol
wire to play with (I only want a yard or so) in Europe? How much
does it cost? And finally, how many times can I expect to deform
the wire before it won't pop back into shape again?

Just thinking of building a matchbox sized legged robot for a
bit of fun....
