| Reduce and shape thickness
of brass, copper, gold, silver, platinum or soft steel
wire. Made of thick, |
| high-grade tool steel, carefully
stamped with style identifying letter and hole sizes.
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. |
| Tubes can also be formed from
flat sheet metal. |
