How To Wire Wrap Jewelry?

How do I get a more uniform twist on my jewelry wire with a pin vise or wire-twisting pliers?

  • I've tried both. The wire-twisting pliers seem to give me a better twist to the wire. Still it;s really not uniform. The ends are more tightly twisted than is the middle, regardless of the length of the wire or how tightly I twist it. Any ideas on how to fix that? I'm using 20ga square wire, sterling silver, if that makes any difference to your answer.

    Hello friend, I asked our designer Alice who designed this dangle beads: http://www.8season-supplies.com/10-pcs-mixed-crystal-quartz-faceted-dangle-beads-charms-fits-pandora-24x6mm-p-5150.html I feel that twist on the dangle beads sounds the same as what you mentioned. So I asked Alice how did she crafted the twist. Alice is very professional. She told me"she use two pliers, one is round nose pliers and the other is curved nose pliers" 1) use the round nose plier to make a loop 2) and then use the curved nose plier to clip the loop and use round one to twist Oh, how i wish i could send an introduction video to you. By the way, my friend, I also have a question wait your help. I noticed you wrote "20ga square wire". What's the meaning of "gauge"? could i use it to describe the head pins diameter or thickness? Or does it only can be used on wire? Thank you Your friend *Forever*
