How do I avoid the core from snapping?

October 24, 2008

Can I use a different kind of core wire to avoid it from snapping easily?

Tutorial: Coiled Bangle
by Eni1 of 1October 26,2008

Instead of using a sterling silver core, use a steel memory wire core. I use 24 ga memory wire and have not had a problem since. The ends must be looped differently than shown in the tutorial, though, you cannot wire wrap it, so simply do a double ring and wrap it with thin coiled wire.
