Wire Question

[scbassman28]

I have a roll of wire and need to make straight pieces. What is the easiest way to make it straight. I have done it with my hands a little at a time but this is very time consuming. Any ideas would help.

I know commercial guys have rollers that straighten the wire. I would like an answer to this as well. I don't honestly think you can get it perfectly straight by hand. You must have some kind of wire straightener or machine

I have the same situation with my A-Rig wire. I can't get it straight by hand and haven't found any other way.

Straighten the wire somewhat and roll it between two wide wooden boards while pressing it firmly. A hard wood, like oak, works the best.
