I just got my new carbide draw plate in the mail. It was surprisingly heavy. I did a quick search for information on how to use it. I thought it was a little funny I found a post from 2006 from Doc Mark as a beginner asking the same question.
I see to start at the size of my original diameter of wire and draw down and anneal about every couple of draws. I didn't see about a lubricant and ,if needed what type. And does this go pretty well or should I expect a learning curve to get it right ? The same routine for gold, silver or copper ? Thanks in advance for the help, Mark
