So I have rediscovered another forgable bronze alloy circa 1623.

Any music fans here. Ever hear of Zildjian cymbals.

Copper, tin, and silver!

Only five people in the world know the exact ratio.

I could probably figure it out in a weekend thru trial and error and comparing the color to a cymbal. 

Or better yet. The pawn shop i use has an xrf analyzer that could tell me the exact ratio if i was so inclined. Of course I would also have to find a cymbal first.

Trade secret you say?

I wonder how it spins? Isn't an xrf analyzer cheating?

It's only a secret till someone figures it out.

To you sir I say " if you aren't cheating you are not trying"

And I reply to you my good man. "well duh."

There always are the Testers. Taste Tester, Tester Pilot, Clothing Tester, Testers of Metal (Black-Smite)

I know one of the people who knows the formula: I worked with Craigie Zildjian (14th generation of the Zildjian family in the cymbal business) to set up a scholarship fund for percussion majors in our conservatory of music.
