Usually, when we make our own accesories, we could need more pieces of which we think, and sometimes we haven't it, so if we know manufacture of these we have an advantage. That's what we offer in this video, a simple way to get shackles for our jewels.
With a pair of pliers (cutting and round tip) and a metal wire (metal precious or not) can make simple shackles, because we need these and we don't have, either to save money, or because we simply want to give a personal style to our piece.
We recommend using good quality pliers because, although they may be more expensive than some cheaper, last much longer and finish work is top quality.
Advise: The video is in spanish, but the images are very easy to understand.
