Really lovely, you must have good eyesight to do something is detailed as that.

Beautiful.

Wow, very impressive! No idea how to make something like that - looks very fiddly! How long did it take you?

[mjbelkin]

Thank you everyone, it takes about 2 hours, but that's because I buy the jumprings rather than make them.

Once you get the basics of the weave, its fairly simple - the trick is to make sure you get the right aspect ratio (thickness of wire ratio to the inside diameter).

This is a nice chunky one - I've also done some earrings with much smaller rings

[Sommerwood]

Oooo that is lovely, doesn't it give you sore fingers making it?

[michelleC]

[mjbelkin]

Thank you both.

No sore fingers, but slightly sore hands from gripping pliers firmly
