Andrew showed you how to melt down silver using an electronic furnace, roll out sheet, roll out square, rectangular, D section and court section wire. In this film Andrew takes you through the correct way to roll down and draw down wire to a specific diameter.

FINALLY! Someone showing how wire is actually made instead of endless videos of people drawing wire from...wire!
Thank you, Andrew! Really enjoyed watching your process!
Thank you so much for this. Got 'er done - despite only having the draw plate and a vice...lots of cursing, slipping around and annealing LOL!! I think I put a hip out but I got from ingot to to round 1mm wire with your help! :)
55 AND all ways tryin life. you inspire me .im a great prospector, and now i get to play with my metal. thank you Friend.
Hi Andrew, I do a lot of drawing wire and like you, I have to mill it first on the square groves. However, I do something, I have not seen you or other tubers do: I actually roll round wire on the mill by rotating the wire less than 45 degrees. This is particularly beneficial, if you do not have a draw bench but only rely on your vise, draw plate and your arms. Can be hard work. Anyway, thanks for your videos. They are appreciated.
Well. I watched this video and went looking for a draw plate bench like you have. OMG are they outrageous! I ended up building one with a wench and got a pair of draw plate pliers for about $20.00, so the entire cost was about $80.00 US and mounted it on a 4X6X8ft piece of lumber. They were asking like $1,200 US for the one you have used. I also made mine adjustable with a flat vise that can move in as close as 2ft and out as far as making 7ft of wire. I made some copper wire so far with my carbide plate and I love it! No more trying to pull wire through a plate with pliers by hand, and making jagged wire. Your videos give me inspiration to do things and make things work. Looking forwards to more of your videos even though you have made many.
i used to work in a silver/gold metal mill, we did this with like, 10,000 T.oz at a time! We had giant annealing OVENS and machines that would do some of this in one step. We had a machine that would turn round wire into square wire( mainly to make it smaller size quickly) and square to round dies, round to half moons, triangle, and round to square again. Fun stuff! And very very very specific stuff.
Excellent instruction. Exactly what I was trying to learn. You have some cool tools, unfortunately, I will be holding the plate with my vice and pulling with locking pliers. 😊
I recently looked up fine silver wire online. The cheapest I could find had more than a 600% markup over what you'd pay for the bullion weight.
Ive been wondering about drawing down. Something didn't quite make sense in my rationing.
Oh! I needed this video days ago! Now I’ve got a bunch of crappy flakey wires. Guess I was to eager with the increments I squeezed them ate
Perfect training, thank you🌺
So incredibly helpful. Thanks, Andrew.
Thanks so much for this series from scrap to “new” wire! So very helpful.
Thank you for your knowledge!
Awesome video Andrew. Iv lived this whole indept series from ingot to wire! Alot of people will find it super helpful.. I got myself my firs draw plate last week.
You don't quench after heating for annealing. I've so many videos where the craftsman quenches after heating. Why do they do that? I took a metallurgy class in college about 25 years ago and seem to remember that quenching hardens/case hardens the work.
I will not be making electrical wire with this method! I was just watching production of fence wire in 2 mile long rolls. What a long way we have come in our industrial processing of metals.
Many thanks sir
Brilliant videos
