This report is submitted to complete Task II of University of California Order Number 4321405. Task I had Teledyne Wah Chang Albany (TWCA) assemble and process by the Modified Jelly Roll (MJR) method a Ti-modified Nb/sub 3/Sn superconductor billet. This billet was identified as M103 by TWCA. The billet matrix is nominally composed of copper 13.5 wt % tin bronze sheet and niobium 1.2 wt % titanium expanded metal with a volume ratio of three parts bronze to one part niobium alloy. All processing steps and problems encountered in manufacturing billet M103 are described in this report.
