Daily Wire Tip Feb. 25: How to Make a Bail
By gavin on February 25, 2010
Daily Wire Jewelry Making Tip
February 25, 2010
Question:
Is there any way to make a nice bail for a chain without going through a lot of hassle, a nice plain bail for a neck chain or a murano glass pendant?
Answer:
In October, Sherrie and I did a video tip that shows how to use a small piece of pattern wire to make an independent bail. You can also use a piece of heavy gauge round or square wire, by following the method shown in this video: https://wire-sculpture.com/jewelry-making-blog/206/creating-an-independent-bail/
