This is the best video on wire wrapping I have ever seen--by far! With his precise instructions, for the first time I think "I can do this!" Previously all my futile attempts ended in disasters. I will definitely be visiting his You Tube channel. You are the BEST!!!!!❤🎉

Hi Jim I tried to get some of those wire wrap maker pliers but don’t think JTV deliver to Uk 🇬🇧 any idea where I can get them from having difficulty finding any?
@JimMcIntosh Жыл бұрын
I'm not sure about the shipping o the UK. I'll see what I can do with JTV to get some to you.

can you solder the ends ?
@JewelSchool Жыл бұрын
Hi! This is a dead soft, non-tarnish, plated wire, so unfortunately you will not be able to solder this particular type of wire. Hope this helps!
