"JASON HARRIS: Hi, I'm Jason with ExpertVillage.com. And today, I'm making a bracelet out of wire and coaxial cable. We just got done measuring the wire, the length of it needs to fit around my wrist, and to tie all the knots to keep the beads in place. So before we start putting anything on, we want to make sure that the beads fit. And inside the coaxial cable, there was actually a hole from the wire. So that hole was bigger than the wire we're using, so that wire should just fit in there just fine. But we added glue; we want to make sure that we can still stick the wire through which we can. So we'll do both beads to make sure that the wire and the beads all go together. And we also put glue in to hold the safety pin on the charm. So we want to make sure that the hole in the center of that is all the way through. So they're all the way---all of them are all the way in there. So we're going to want to tie the knots to keep everything in place. But we're only going to tie one knot at a time and we're going to measure before each knot. That way, we can keep the whole bracelet center. So take everything back off, lay your wire back out, and I'll talk about measuring and tying each of the knots for each of the steps as we're doing them. That way, we can keep everything center and get the knots at the ends run exactly where they need to be."
