Step 2Wrap strands around the board.
I didn't, but you may want to get your wire really straight to start with. It would have been a bit better if I did.
With each of the 16 copper wire strands, fold them in half and put a kink in them. Loop the wire around the board and push the kink up to the edge.
With the wire running straight across the board twist the two ends of the wire together. Keep all of the twists at the same end of the chess board.
Use pliers to pull the wire tight and twist it up. If you twist it too tight or too much, it will break.
You want two strands of wire for each row on the chess board. Have the wire cut the square into thirds or even slightly closer.
Run the wires from one opponents side to the other. So that if you were to slide the queen from her side to the far side she would slide along two copper strands.
