OT

years
ago, I did do some macram=E9 with some very fine copper wire, and =
incorporated
it in the process of some raku firing.
It left the most beautiful impressions and a hint of copper flash after
firing. I don't do much jewellery anymore so I don't have a ready source =
for
the fine metallic wires.
Do you have one or happen to know of one?
Kathy


Hi Kathy - I've gotten most of my wire supplies from:

http://beadstore.wigjig.com/gary/wre.htm

They offer some cool wires up to 32 gauge or so... and have been very
helpful with advise...

I=92d love to see how you=92re incorporating your copper wires into =
raku-temp
firings. Feel free to send pics to me at =

I hope we can share some ideas. (perhaps off-list)
