This tool lets you wind metal wires into spirals which can then be used to create DIY costume jewelry.
How to use this tool
1. Mount the tool on a table or workbench. Select a rod and secure it in the mandrel.
2. Insert the wire into the mandrel.
3. Turn the crank while holding the wire in your hand, using jewelry pliers or a hand vise. wind the wire to the desired length.
4. Cut the wire.
5. Remove the spiral from the stem. Cut flush with the inside of the rod.
6. Insert another wire into the spiral. Don't cut it until you've finished winding, to make sure you have enough thread. Use a different diameter rod for this step.
7. Turn the crank.
8. Start and finish the spiral with a few more wraps.
For more details on how to use the swivel, see our video tutorial.
The swivel allows you to create finer spirals on long, fine or twisted wires. Simply insert the end of one wire into the swivel, then the other end into the mandrel. All that remains is to twist the wire as before.
It's advisable to add a few drops of oil to the mandrel regularly to prevent it from seizing.
