Also, you said you'll try carbide drills as electrodes - i wonder where to  
find information which electrode shows the least wear. Tungsten rods fo  
TIG welding might be another option, if it is better than graphite (which  
i don't think).
I think the industry uses graphite for sinkers and "soft" metals for other  
machines like wirecutters, no?
