 Step 1: Cut a piece of 16 or 18 gauge wire 6 inches long. Step 2: Make a loop in the end of the wire with the flush cut. Step 3: Hold the wire by the loop and straighten the wire by pulling it repeatedly through the jaws of your nylon jaw pliers.
Step 4: Position pegs 1 through 6 in your jig as shown above-right.
Pegs 1, 3, 4, and 5 are regular metal pegs for your jig. Pegs 2 and
6 are Super Pegs for your WigJig Centaur (shown) or WigJig Cyclops or
Electra. If you have two 1/2" Super Pegs use both as pegs 2 and 6.
If you only have one 1/2" Super Peg, use it for peg 6 and use a 7/16"
Super Peg for peg 2. (Peg 6 is at the bottom of the ear.) The
pattern shown here is for a normal sized ear.... Actually it is for my ear
and at 6'3"
Step 5: Remove your wire from the jig. At this point it should appear as shown at left. Position this wire over one of your ears and determine where to make a loop in the end of the wire so that the loop would rest approximately where the hole in a pierced ear would be on your ear. Step 6: Using your round nose pliers make the final loop in the wire. |
tall,
my ear is normal to me, but probably larger than most peoples ear.
You may find that you want to move pegs 1, 2, and 6 closer together by one
peg hole each. When you have your pegs in position, place your
initial loop on peg 1 and wrap the wire around the remaining pegs as
shown.
