Here is the original part.



Another angle.



Using pipe cleaners to measure the shape I get finished size of 9 inches.
Estimating the length after drawing I started with 7 inches of 3/8ths.
I tapered both ends.

Here is where I think there has to be a better way.

I formed the metal into a chain link, bent the ends to form the "ears", and then put in the twist.






It seems when I put the twist in last, I get it off center.

If I twist before forming the chain link, I tend to flatten the twist.

How would you do it?????]]> Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:46:50 -0400
