Here is a tip for straightening and work hardening wires from @mijouxjewellery ⁣

“It’s amazing how easily wire can get kinked or bent so this is a really useful way of straightening it out again.⁣

I’m using a planishing hammer here which has a flat head on one side to roll the silver wire on a small steel block. If you have longer wire to straighten, you can do it in stages or use a larger steel block.”⁣
