Soldered paper clip bracelet

Step 7 Making the Connector

Making the Connector

-Straighten out the paper clip (it doesn't have to be perfect, it just helps with the shaping) (or use the left-over bits)

-Grip the very end of the paper clip with the pliers

-Using the rest of the paper clip for leverage, bend the paper clip around the end of the pliers as tight as you can; until it is parallel with the end in the pliers

-Reposition the pliers about 1 to 1 1/2 cm farther on the paper clip

-Using the rest of the paper clip for leverage, bend the paper clip around the end of the pliers as tight as you can; until it is parallel with the part in the pliers

-Cut off the excess paper clip, leaving a tiny gap between the two ends

Connecting the connector

-Bend the ends of the connector apart (so that the gap is big enough to fit that last links of the bracelet though it)

-Slip the last link (from one of the ends)though the gap and into the connector

-Warp bracelet around your special someone's wrist

-Slip the last link (from the other end)though the gap into the connector

-Bend the ends of the connector closed
