Step 7: Continue pushing the wire to form a loop around peg 1
as shown at left. By pushing the wire with your fingers close to
peg 1, you will be able to keep the loop around peg 1 as small as
possible so that it will be identical to the initial loop placed on peg
1 in step 4.
Step 8: Remove your wire component from the jig. At this point the wire should appear as shown at right.
Step 10: Now we are ready to make the three loop triangle wire component. Use one of the 3 1/4" wire segments that you straightened in step 3. Place the initial loop on peg 1 in the pattern and instead of merely bending the wire against peg 2 as we did with the one loop triangular component, wrap the wire completely around peg 2 as shown at right. |
Step
6: Add peg 3 to your pattern and bend the wire against peg 3
as shown at right. Continue pushing the wire until it rests in the
position shown with no pressure applied. This may require you to
push the wire over peg 1 slightly and then allow the wire to relax back
to the position shown.
Step
9: Cut the excess wire using your flush cutter, being careful
to orientate the flat side of your flush cutter toward the finished wire
component. Then close the final loop in the wire component using
your bent chain nose pliers. This will complete the one loop
triangle wire component.
