I have no idea what gauge wire I used in this instance. I use the largest wire that will fit into the bead usually. This example, tutorial is adaptable to what you need to use it is not a recipe for one specific outcome.

The base is just called a metal block and the hammer is a domed hammer. Check out fdj tools, just give them a google search.

Thank you
