Solid Wire
What gauge wire is used to make swag light kits?
I want to make a rain chain, and I’m wondering what size solid copper wire would work. It needs to hold some weight and should be able to bend by using pliers or such. I want to make sure the links don’t pull apart with any weight on it. And the size of wire on a swag light kit might work. But I don’t know what size it is.
If I understand correctly you want to use copper wire to make a chain to hold some weight, maybe 10-15 pounds. You will need solid copper wire that is commonly used as a ground wire. This could be a #2 or larger wire the smaller the number, the larger the wire. Copper is very expensive right now, but will not get much cheaper in the near future. Use long handled pliers to bend the wire, to make the links, use a large piece of wood for a link form. take 2 1/2″ bolts close together, secure the end of the wire near one and bend the wire around both. Cut the wire and repeat the process to make the links. Hope this makes sense.
