: At big home improvement store called Lowes, I found both Copper and Steel in
: 18 ga. I purchased 110 feet of steel for the same price as 25 feet of
: copper. Hopefully it will work just the same.

Copper has recently gotten silly expensive. Just keep the shop dry and the iron wire should work fine. Will cause really bad rust stains on the wood if it gets even damp.
