I am practicing my tig welding for an exhaust that I am building and need some .040 ss rod . The welding shop only sells it in 10 lb box for $ 175 . Will041 saftey wire work for welding 304 .049 thick tube ???

How about a small roll for a wire feeder? They come in one or two pounds for spool guns, and are about $20.

Burns has what you need. Practice with the same material's you will be welding with. http://www.burnsstainless.com/Hardware/ServiceCosts/servicecosts.html

I've used 1/16 308 Stainless tig rod to weld mufflers. You might check with a small welding shop or tool and die shop. I bet they would give you enough to do the job, I know I would if you were close.
