| The link used in making these bracelets is shown at right. These images are enlarged so that they are easier to view. The actual link is 1/2 inch long. The link on top was made with 1/2 hard wire, the link shown with the sapphire cube beads was made with soft wire. I recommend using soft wire because it is easier to complete this piece without marking the wire using soft wire. |

Making this link involves three regular metal
pegs. The pattern for the WigJig Delphi is shown at right. The
steps involved in making this component are provided below. |

Step 1: Cut and straighten a 2 inch long piece of
soft 20G wire. Step 2: Make a partial or full loop in the end of the wire. Step 3: Place this loop over peg 1 and wrap the wire as shown above right. Step 4: Remove the wire from the jig and cut the loop off. |
