6 Jewelers Tools For Making Wire
3 Drawplates
This is a new set of 3 drawplates. With these drawplates you can reduce and shape thickness of gold, silver, platinum, brass, copper or soft steel wire. The holes are progressively smaller, in proper increments, so that wire drawn from a preceding hole will go through the next hole easily. Occasional annealing will keep wire soft, and bees wax can be used as a lubricant. Economical quality, which offers great versatility.
