\"ff<\/a><\/p>\n

The first time I saw a pinch bail I was rather unimpressed. It looked plain, flimsy and not at all like something I’d want to entrust my jewelry to.<\/p>\n

But then when I used it, I said, \u201cAh ha!\u201d It’s simplicity is deceptive. Just a gentle squeeze and the tension of the metal holds your piece in place. As I mention in the video it’s a nice quick way to make a pendant out of a crystal or glass drop without doing all that wire wrapping.<\/p>\n

What made me even happier was to discover that pinch bails don’t have to be plain, but can be quite decorative. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

If you’re unsure about security it’s perfectly fine to add a dab of E6000 <\/a>or other strong glue.<\/p>\n

Here are several pinch bails like the ones I show<\/a> in the video.<\/p>\n

Enjoy the video and happy creating!<\/p>\n
