Cut Metal Plate

1. First cut (using saw or scissors) a square piece of plate. The piece needs to be narrow enough to easily fit through your charm/pendant. The piece I cut for this sample was 1 inch long and a little over 1/4 inch wide.

2. Next, cut off the corners of each square so that you have a shape as pictured.
