If you have a jump ring maker like the one Pepetool sells or similar, you can use the chuck on the jump ring winder. Thanks for sharing this video. I really appreciate your knowledge and your being generous with that knowledge.

@@ImbaliCrafts I try to keep my shop under control without extra tools as it seems to be getting smaller. I try to use all my tools to the best of their ability. I am glad I may have helped someone. I believe in paying it forward. Stay well.
Thank you enjoyed part 1. Will there be a follow up part 2 please?

Yes, it has been in the pipeline for ages, I just haven't had time to work on filigree at the moment, but there will be one when I have time!!
