Straightening Out Wire for Strings

[nansea121]

Hey Tina,

You can buy rolls of pretinned wire which is a finer gauge and will certainly be easier to work with. There are several gauges available. Delphi carries it as well.

Ya! Those are the gauges of wire I was talking about, lol.

Stephen,
Thank you so much for the suggestion!   Why did I not think to do this?   I have always just looked at so called 'craft' sites, - despite the fact that I get my copper wire (bare earth copper wire) from an electrical supplier, then unravel and tin it myself.   Never thought to ask about tinned wire there.   Will definately look into costs etc next time I'm there!
