Instructions
1. | Mark the size of the desired ring on the ring stick with a pencil. Cut the aluminum wire to size. Cut about 70 cm of wire. Wrap the center of the cut wire 3 times around the ring stick at the marked point. |
2. | Now twist the ends of the wire once flat around the center. |
3. | Then twist both wires around each other to create a spiral. |
4. | This spiral is then wrapped in a circle around the center of the ring. This is repeated until the wires are used up. |
5. | Detach the ring from the ring stick and hide the ends between the loops from below so that they become “invisible”. |

TipSo-called ring measures are suitable for measuring the size, which can simply be drawn over the finger and then over the ring stick. A mark can then be made with a pencil at the point where the ring measure fits on the ring stick. efco has 2 different ring measures in its range - 18 301 04 ring measure cardboard with 16 measures or 18 300 08 as a set with ring sticks.
