    Your tutorial was perfect. Thank you. 👍. In all the time I have been making stuff w/different types of wire, I have never seen that technique you did in the beginning to straighten the wire.......so guess what I'm gonna be practicing on my next creation. 🙃🌻☮️

    Great tutorial, you get right to the point and explain in an way that is easy to understand and follow. 1st one I tried came out looking good. I used a roll of rusty wire that's been in the garage for at least 30 years. Went and bought a 3.5 lb. roll of 16 gauge rebar tie wire for $3.99 which I'll try next. Thanks for the tutorial.

    Great tutorial. I just didn't get the proper length of the 16 wires and how to more precisely split them into tail-length and arms length, for here in Brazil we use centimeters not inches. I understand you made a really big item.

    Yes. But you can take the strands apart on stranded wire and make small scorpions. The size of the finished scorpion is determined by the diameter and length of the wire. Just use smaller wire and cut them shorter. Enjoy
