Hi there,
I realise that this may be a rather basic question for some of you, but I am looking for some guidance. I have made earring wires in some different styles using 0.8mm sterling silver round wire. In order to harden them, I have tried a couple of different options -either at the beginning of the process by using my barrelling machine to tumble them for a couple of hours or by pulling and twisting the wire (using nylon jaw pliers) before shaping them accordingly.
Can you advise what would be the best option (either from those above or alternative ways). I am concerned that whilst they appear to be holding shape, that they could be better.
Thank you in advance
