Double Wrapped Loop
by Judy Ellis
Today we feature a Tip from Lisa Stevens in Tucson on how to use the Wire Looping Wubbers to create a Double Wrapped Loop.
Instructions
Step 1: Working from a coil of 20 gauge wire leave a 1 1/2 inch tail and fold your wire in the Wubbers looping pliers.

Step 2: Continue looping wire around until you have 2 loops. You'll have to open the jaw to accommodate the 2nd loop.

Pro Tip: Work at the tip of the jaw to make this easier
