Does the annealing process to copper wire only have to be done once, or will it eventually harden again?


Ralph, Your copper wire does harden somewhat with time and temperature...Best advice is keep it out of the sun and high temperature...It even hardens some as you un-coil it to wire a branch...I re-anneal a certain amount occasionally as it becomes more difficult to work with...
