• Hi,
  
  A friend wanted some half round or 'D'section wire to go around the edges of the cab of a locomotive he was making.  I had plenty in stock but he said that he would like to make it.  So out came the draw plates and I made a short video which I hope you enjoy.

  Where do you get the draw plates?
  
  Here in the UK they are available from Horological and Jewellery supply stores. Try Googling draw plates.
