I use a variety of tools- small round-jawed pliers- and a drill bit index will allow you bend just about and curve possible. I like to use brass wire when possible because it holds the bends really well. Fine diameter solder wire is useful in some cases, but it's like using cooked, wet spaghetti. It's a feel you develop as you go- experiment and have fun! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vonjhn68 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Beware of all plasticard and soldering wire magicians who say, "It's not that hard..." 😄 Great work Chuk, as usual. Cheers, John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
