Wire Key (Mrballeng Style)
This Instructable is done for the Remix Contest, using Meballeng techinque to do the beaufitul Treble Clef pendant.
Materials & Tools
You'll need:
- wire (I found 20 meters at the 1€ stores)
- pliers with cone nose
- clippers
- hammer
- anvil
- sandpaper and/or buffing wheel
Blade
With cone pliers bend the wire to do the blade of the key. Hammer only the curve.
Bow
Always using the cone pliers, bend the wire to do the bow. I chose a clover shape. Hammer only the curves!
Cut
With clipper, cut the wire behind the center of the curves, so it will be hide.
Jump Ring
With the same wire or a thinner one, do the jump ring, that I ave do curl shaped.
Polish
Use sandpaper and/or buffing wheel to pulish the key. :)
You key is finished, you can use it as a pedant or key chain or as you want.
