So clear, thanks. Especially like your pointers on how to reshape and adjust, some natural 'pause points' where you can survey your work and fine-tune the shape, before you're completely locked into the final form.

Thanks so much for your videos. They let me know that I don't need to buy all of the fancy pricey tools to make things. I've recently started kumihimo and buying clasps and cones can get pricey. Making my own will add an additional personal touch to my pieces. I hope it's as easy as you make it look :-) I'm subscribing.

I love this video, too! However, i have a question. Will the 18 gauge wire stay in shape? I know I've had silver wire that stretches out, but I've never worked with the copper wire.

@beadedjewelrydiva 8 жыл бұрын

Hi Jean -- 18 gauge will stay in place if you don't have a lot of tugging on your piece. If you do anticipate any tugging or plan to use with heavy pieces, then I suggest a little bit of work hardening on the clasp prior to attaching it to your project. I hope this helps! :)
