Step 2:  Make a loop in the end of this wire with the flush cut. 

Step 3:  Using your nylon jaw pliers grasp the loop in one hand and straighten the wire by pulling it through the jaws of your nylon jaw pliers. 

Step 4:  Position pegs 1 and 2 in your WigJig Centaur as shown above-right.  Place your initial loop on peg 1 and wrap the wire around peg 2 so that it rests adjacent to the hole for peg 3 with no pressure applied.  Release your grip on the wire to confirm that it will stay in place.  If it moves away from the hole for peg 3 when you release your grip, push it some more so that it stays in place.  (A peg pattern for the WigJig Cyclops or Electra will be provided later.)

Step 5:  Position peg 3 in your jig as shown above-right.  Wrap the wire around peg 3 so that it rests adjacent to the hole for peg 4 with no pressure applied. 

Step 6:  Position peg 4 in your jig as shown above-right.  Wrap the wire around peg 4 so that it rests adjacent to the hole for peg 5 with no pressure applied. 

Step 7:  Position peg 5 in your jig as shown above-right.  Wrap the wire around peg 5 so that it rests adjacent to the hole for peg 6 with no pressure applied. 

Step 8:  Position peg 6 in your jig as shown above-right.  Wrap the wire around peg 6 so that it rests adjacent to the hole for peg 7 with no pressure applied. 

Step 9:  Position peg 7 in your jig as shown above-right.  Wrap the wire completely around peg 7. 

Step 10:  Remove the wire from your jig and cut the excess wire.  Close the loop made on peg 7 with your bent chain nose pliers.  At this point your wire should appear as shown at left.
