CHAPTER IV
WIRE FRAMES
Equipment
- Brace wire or frame wire
- Tie wire
- Sprung wire
- Pliers
To open coil of wire—
Hold the coil in the left hand; unfasten and allow it to loosen gradually in the hand; pass it over the arm and knock it until the coils separate.
To cut wire—
Place wire firmly and squarely between the jaws of the pliers at the point where they cut and press straight down. Be sure to cut with the first attempt; otherwise, if the wire is haggled off, the pliers are injured and the covering loosened at the ends of the wire which will make it impossible to tie them together.
