spring-tempered stainless wire rings?
I have a sister who makes light fixtures as a cottage industry. She called me
just now wanting to know how to go about getting or making stainless wire rings, spring tempered, made from something like 16 ga. wire. I don't see any people who directly source rings in lampshade-sized dimensions (like 3" up) so now I'm wondering about making them. What kind of stainless wire can be spring-tempered? Is it possible to make a spring-tempered stainless ring using only O/A equipment? Or is TIG welding completely required? Any bright ideas? Grant Erwin Kirkland, Washington |
