Metal light reflectors

After I discovered that discrete halogen bulbs are cheaper and come in a range of low wattages, I
decided to find some metal reflectors and make my own lights. Unfortunately I couldn't find any
supplier of inexpensive metal flashlight reflectors.

If anyone knows where to get these, I can get back to tinkering.

Defunct battery lights and/or flashlights? I got a few lying about if you want.

Or how about the first halogen wirespots. Think that was a bulb with a parabola reflector around.
Facetted like... so no idea how the light cone looks.

All I have seen are plastic, and will melt with anything higher than a couple watts. I have seen
some metal reflectors for yard lights, but they are dull and crummy overall.
