I really like using black wire. I almost have it down pat on not breaking the color on the wire Attachments:

Do you have to harden it when you are finished making it? I have trouble using the round but it be a nice surprise. Tammy

I used a 20 gauge for this one. I have no problem with it keeping its shape. The trick is the tension and how tightly you can get the wires together and getting them perfectly straight. I prefer using round wire because I do not like the feel of the square wire on my skin it's to rough, I like working with it but hate the feel of it.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
