Weekly Wire Wrapping Tip #4

 Use the Right Wire Gauge for the Job

 Why?
Different gauges serve different purposes. Using the wrong one can lead to weak structures or stiff designs that are hard to shape.

 Quick Gauge Guide:

  • 20–22 Gauge: Great for frames and structural base

  • 26–30 Gauge: Ideal for weaving and fine detailing

  • 18 Gauge and thicker: For heavy-duty or bold designs

 Bonus: Try mixing gauges to add depth and texture to your creations!
