    I use both store bought strip and sheet material for bezels. When I
    cut from sheet, I just measure and draw my straight lines with a
    skinny sharpie. Works well so far. I'd love to try the rolling wire
    in a mill method, but I don't have a rolling mill just yet. I just
    got my first kiln...next will either be a proper tumbler (my HF one
    died) or a proper bench (instead of an old sewing table).
