    wire gauge

    here is an interesting site, showing different wire thickness:

    also, I have some bright n shiny gauge 4 copper wire. should I sell to the yard as bb, or is there a market for art work that will pay more?



    Edit: Please move to "more than scrap value" if you want. sorry

    Try this...........

    People who grow bonsai (trees in pots) use copper wire to bend and shape the branches. Go to ebay and enter bonsai, you can get some good ideas from there.
