Ideally, I'd use dead soft for ease of use during fabrication, then put it in a tumbler with some steel shot for about an hour to work harden the metal.<br />Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03106175502097580767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908952745169451157.post-86416925903440370672014-08-10T18:12:37.314-07:002014-08-10T18:12:37.314-07:00Hi there, I am jut starting to make these and I to...Hi there, I am jut starting to make these and I took a class at a local bead shop. We used the 20 gauge artistic wire for class purposes but I would like to make a silver one. I never know which type of wire to use when. I see that you used dead soft on this but half hard on the ear wires, also, how does the wire that you used for the ring compare to the artistic wire, is that considered half hard or dead soft??

Five minutes later I made my first wire wrapped ring thanks to you and your excellent step-by-step tutorial. <br /><br />I am a beginner when it comes to wire wrapping (2 days… old) and you have inspired me to carry on and learn all I can about this art. Thanks and I’ll totally give you credit and praise when I write a post about this experience.
