How much do you need? I have a little... If you need a lot, Len Horowitz and Robert Van Dyke both have some.

Heater Wire
My old MSS lathe just used plain copper wire about 0.2 mm wrapped around the diamond with short fly leads to a pair of terminals mounted to the side of the cutting head. This seems to give acceptable results, although the wire does burn out quite often, the heating makes it brittle.
It works for me!

Heater Wire
For messing around with, unwind heater wire from an old electric fan heater. I got Many metres of nichrome out of my old heater!
