Does anyone have a good recommendation where to get half-round dead soft copper in 21 or 22 gauge? I usually buy all my wire from Rio but they don't have this unless I'm missing it.
I'm trying to do some bindings in 22 round and I'm having a devil of a time.
Thanks!

I usually make my own with a draw plate, that way you can make what ever size you need any time. Make a simple draw bench out of 2X6s, an inexpensive Harbor Freight boat winch, some short pieces of scrap 2" angle and your are just about set to go. You will need to purchase a set of draw tongs too. I have draw plates for round, square and rectangle. They were very handy for recycling scrap Sterling silver.

I get mine at Rio, but I've never looked for any 1/2 round smaller than 20g
