- String a crimp tube on the wire.
- Pass through the clasp loop and then back through the tube in the opposite direction. This will temporarily secure the clasp to the wire.
- Snug the tube so it is about 5mm from the clasp loop.
- Nestle the tube into the round part of the pliers' back notch. Squeeze very firmly.
- Turn the tube 90 degrees and place it in the pliers' front notch. Squeeze. The tube should mimic its original cylindrical shape, this time with a seam along the side. If the tube is misshapen, gently squeeze it into shape using the front notch.
