How to Make Chain: The Fly-Eye and Loop-in-Loop Chains
Ever wanted to learn how to make chains? These two easy chains are a great way to start! The Fly-Eye chain is a non-soldered chain and the loop-in-loop employs fusing fine or Argentium silvers. If you don't have either, I'll show you how to create links by soldering. Don't forget to check out my web page for more detailed info. Link below. Note: Purchase "dead soft" wire. Also, you don't HAVE to use round wire. Also, also, you can twist your wire before making links to make it textured. This is especially beautiful with square wire. Anneal after twisting and before making jump rings! I use an electric drill as the battery compartment on a cordless, gets in the way for holding in a vise. Of course, there are workarounds!
