7. Continue this process and add wire stick sections making sure to slip one onto the other before wrapping each loop closed.

8. After completing the chain, go back with a jeweler's file and file each wrapped area smooth so it does not scratch the wearer.

Each chain section should be a little over an inch in length. Obviously, you can change the lengths depending on what your are making. If you want a bracelet, I would recommend making the them around one half to three quarters in length.

Probably the most difficult part of making this chain is just keeping the sections around the same length, so use a ruler to help gauge the size of the sections as you make each one.
