c o i l sUse one of the 20-gauge colored wires and the mandrel to form a coil. Slide the
coil off the mandrel and ush cut the ends.
Cut the coil into 1" (2.5 cm) lengths. Set the coils aside.
Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for each of the colored wires. You should end up with
about a dozen coils.
a s s e m b l y
Flush cut 6" (15.2 cm) of 18-gauge wire. Form a wrapped loop 2" (5.1 cm) from
one end. Trim any excess tail wire and le if needed.
Slide 1 coil inside 1 cage. Line up the cages starting loops with the coils hole.
You may need to pull the cage lengthwise to get it around the coil. Well call this
piece Coil n Cage.
Use the 18-gauge wire to string the Coil n Cage, 1 disc bead, and 1 rondelle.
Close the link with another wrapped loop.
Repeat Steps 9 and 10, this time connecting the rst wrapped loop to the sec -
ond loop of the previous link.
Repeat Step 12 to connect all the components. Set the chain aside.
Use the remaining 16-gauge wire to make a simple S clasp. Attach the clasp to
the end of the chain. The rst wrapped loop will act as the catch for the clasp.
Tumble the necklace for 30 minutes, then polish.
