@MetalGrannie ah good question. I will do a follow up video showing what I do then.

I learned something; great vid.

You can avoid plier marks by using masking tape or dipping your plier jaws into a plastic coating prior to using them. How do you hammer if attaching it another coil? It's better/quicker to use a larger flat nose.

Metalgrannie...add the other loop just before closing with the coil.  Then use the needle nose held across the new loop and positioned tightly against the loop you're attaching to, coil like explained. I'd hoped to learn a "trick", though.

Hi. My problem is making a wrapped loop once I put something into the loop. For example, you held the loop flat in the beginning when you began wrapping. If you are putting something into the loop before wrapping it, where and how do you hold the loop? Thanks.
