    I have been teaching myself how to make this chain and it gets so difficult at the twisting part, thank you for making this video I’m gonna do it the way you did it and take my time and twist each link individually the outcome is amazing as always

      Sanjeev Basi Thank you this was my first time making a Cuban link I all so found it hard to do what I’m going to try next time is to do round links instead of over links and good luck all the best

      @southpaw5504 5 років тому +5

      I find it easy twisting the links starting at the bottom with two flat head pliers. With the left hand I hold the first link and the right hand I twist up or down but you also need to keep the chain tight.

    What a brilliant craftsman you are. I wear a thick 147g curb chain and it’s amazing to see how much work and skill goes into them. They are lovely chains and a firm ‘favourite’ with many people. A timeless classic! Well done! 👍🇬🇧

    you can achieve oval links by wrapping the wire around two smaller rods rather than one large one.. it has to be done by hand though usually.

    Have you given any thought to wrapping around 2 rods, each half your desired diameter in order to get oval links right off? Loved the video, came out great!
