In one of my other posts .... I believe it was MichaelJohn ... made a comment about braiding wire.
Are you talking about traditional braiding as I would know it ... as in braiding hair?
The idea sounds great ... I will probably try this tomorrow or Saturday. Are there ways to do this so that I can regulate how tight or loose the braid is?
As always .... Julie
ps ... I am still waiting to get my silver wire ...

Julie, when I've braided in the past it's just a regular old 3 strand braid-yes like a hair braid. After it's all done, I hammer it and it looks pretty cool. When I get home I'll try to find something I've done and take a picture to show you

Okay .... Is this what you guys are talking about when braiding and flattening wire? This piece is about 6" long and 1/8" wide. As always Julie ps ... it's amazing what you do not see until you look at the zoomed pictures. I can now see the nicks and dents in the wire.
