Wrap the wire (counterclockwise) around the single peg at the top, while holding the tail with your non dominant hand, then on to the next peg (counterclockwise).

Step 3

Continue to take a single revolution with the wire around each of the pegs (counterclockwise).

Step 4

Once all pegs are wrapped, continue around the form, but do not wrap second wire onto the top peg.

Step 5

Use the included pusher tool to push the design all the way down to the surface of the finding form.

Step 6

Remove the connector from the form and trim both tail wires to about 1-1/4'' (3.2cm).

Step 7

Grasp the right facing tail wire and wrap it tightly around the right top portion of the round connector as shown. This will take some practice.

Step 8

Flip the finding and wrap the other tail around the top of the other side. Make these wraps as close to a mirror image as possible.
