Ever wondered how to finish cording ends so that you can add clasps? Here are two simple and easy methods I use - suitable for leather, suede, or cotton cording.


Materials:


20 gauge round wire
Cording (I use waxed black cotton cord: amzn.to/3eMqAIh )
Sharp Scissors
Super glue (optional)
Clasps/fasteners or your choice


Tools Used:


Chain Nose Pliers (I use Xuron tweezer nose: amzn.to/2qgGwOR And Wubbers chain nose: amzn.to/2Oexzxv )


Round Nose Pliers, (I use Wubbers: amzn.to/2rJlVD6 )


Flush Cutters, (I use Xuron Maxi Shear: amzn.to/2rLWcdf and Micro Shear: amzn.to/2qWbEmG )


Ruler: amzn.to/2DleG82
