STEP 1
Cut 3mm cording to your desired length.
STEP 2
Dispense an equal amount from each part of the epoxy. Mix well.
STEP 3
Dip one end of the cording into the epoxy, gathering a light coating.
STEP 4
Insert the end into one half of the pop clasp. Repeat on the other end of the cord with the other half of the clasp. Allow the epoxy to cure overnight.

To use the pop clasp, push the smaller end of the clasp into the larger end; ensure it is secure. Pull the two halves apart to release.
