Lisa it is so helpful to watch how you incorporate each of the tools in the spirals. You are an excellent teacher and I look forward to learning more from you. Thank you
Spirals are wonderful! I like the larger, thicker gauge myself. Holds its shape better.
Thanks for watching! 💕
Thank you! I just made my first closed spiral using this video, and it looks fantastic! Really great for a first try. Can’t wait to make more! Thanks for clearing up a lot of confusion for me!
That's great! so glad the video could help clear some things up. Thanks for watching! 😊
Thank you. I'm just now getting into doing this. 😊
Good luck! Thank you for watching! 😊
I had done a few spirals before but it's good to get a refresher and clean up the slop.
There was a lot of new information here that I hadn’t known! Thank you for sharing! 💜
Awesome! Glad it was helpful and thanks for watching. Check out last weeks video on spirals too!
I loved this vid!! Thank you. I loved when you said "jazz them up".
Thanks so much for watching!
Some great tips thank you, would love have seen you make an open spiral, always seems to be the most difficult
Thanks for watching. Lisa did touch a little about how to create an open spiral at 9:14. Thank you for your feedback, we sincerely appreciate it!
I enjoyed this! Nice job explaining as you went, and I could see things well. Thank you! :)
Thank you so much for watching and we're happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Love your spiral tips!
Good
Thank you 😊
You're welcome. Thanks for watching. Did you see last weeks video about spirals too?
No I haven’t but will look for it thank you

Professional techniques for pro results - the closed spiral technique
Nice vdo for what purpose it is used?
Your tutorials are excellent, thanks so much for your ‘easy to follow’ instructions. I’ve got several Wubber tools but didn’t realize the variety of ways we can use just one tool. It’s certainly time for me to go back and learn how to use each tool that in my. connection.
Do you have any videos that teach how to make oval jump rings with the oval pliers? I have a very difficult time getting the ovals to not get distorted ovals? I’d love to see how to hold the pliers and how to get a oval coil that keeps its shape.
Hi Gloria. Thank you for watching and we're glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Take a look at this video, we think it might help: www.firemountaingems.com/resources/videos/e12u
I REALLY ENJOYED THIS SESSION 😊 THANK YOU AN CAN YOU TELL ME THE NAME OF THE MUSIC AT THE END?
Thanks for watching! This is an older video, so our social media team does not have any details on the music name.
Hi Lisa
I have a real problem in keeping the wire in the pliers. I've tried chain nose and nylon tipped pliers but the wire slips and I can't seem to make a spiral, unless I crimp the pliers so tightly that I make marks on the wire.
I can manipulate 20g wire by hand, but the 18g is too hard to bend without any help from tools.
Do you have any suggestions for me.
Thank you for a lovely tutorial
Best regards
Terry van der Peet
Hi Terry. You might try using Tool Magic on your pliers. Tool Magic provides heavy-duty latex-free rubber coating for pliers to enable wirework without marring sensitive or soft wire. It also helps with grip. It is easy to apply--comes with directions. Here's a link to the product: www.firemountaingems.com/itemdetails/h202055tl and a video on how to apply it: www.firemountaingems.com/resources/videos/690n We hope that helps.
@@FireMountainGems Thank you very much for this information
Nice Mam . Pls can you tell me the length of the wire you have taken to make this spiral . Will be extremely useful and helpful. Thankyou. God bless. Tkcare.
Hello. For demonstration purposes, Lisa used a rather long piece that is 10-12 inches in length. However, when creating these spirals, you'll want to start with a length of wire that is dependent on the number of spirals you want. The more spirals, the more wire, and the less spirals, the less wire.
@@FireMountainGems Thankyou.

I wish they would use a dark background to show the wire. It is hard to see on something white.
We appreciate the feedback! We definitely want the videos to be as clear as possible, so we will take this into consideration in future videos!
Why don’t you use the 4 pc tools you sell at fire mountain?
We offer a variety of 4-piece tool sets. Lisa chose to use what's most comfortable for her.
I wanted her to describe to get the innermost loop perfectly round. Mine always end up as teardrop-shaped. She skipped right over that essential part!
Using a round nose plier will help create the rounded beginning of the spiral.
Fire Mountain Gems and Beads, *duh*! That much is obvious. But even when I make sure that the wire is flush with the top of the plier arms at the tip of the arms, I still get a teardrop shape.
