WigJig is the trademarked brand name for the best, most versatile, and easiest to use jewelry making jigs available.  (Yes, we are prejudiced!)  These jigs provide a matrix of holes in a clear acrylic base that allow for the positioning of metal pegs in an infinite number of patterns.

WigJig jigs can be purchased with accessories including the Spiral Maker, Super Pegs and extra metal pegs.  Only jigs and accessories made by our company can be called true WigJigs.

The wrapped bead link is a component made using beads, wire and round nose and bent chain nose pliers.  This link is used to connect wire components such as sections of chain, links and findings.  Because the ends of the link are closed, this link is very strong. 

Instructions for making a wrapped bead link are here. 

Our most detailed instructions can be found in our online book, "Wire Design Basics" here.
