There are many tutorials out there for making open spirals with wires. The problem with those techniques is to make them evenly and the same each time. That's not an easy task and it takes alot of practice.

After remembering something I've used in my childhood, I had developed this new technique of how to make open spirals evenly and of the same size over and over again. No need for special tools here, just the usual jewelry making pliers would do.

  • È un filmato estremamente chiaro, ho la sfortuna di non conoscere l'inglese e quindi non posso leggere le istruzioni per l'esecuzione e non so come estrarle per effettuare la traduzione. È possibile averle via mail? Grazie. Una cortesia: mi spieghi bene l'inizio:come faccio ad avvicinare i due fili per iniziare la spirale. Vedo dello scotch nel filmato, serve per tenerlo vicini? Ti sarei grata se potessi rispondermi perché ho urgente necessità di realizzare la spirale. Angir

  • wow you are brilliant thank you.

  • That is so much better than the technique I have seen where you just guess how loose to wind them - making one at a time. I will be giving this a try definitely.

  • Yes! Thank you! I've been trying to make perfect spirals for awhile now and this is so simple. I feel stupid now, haha!
