"Hi, I'm Jason. Today I'm filming on behalf of Expert Village.com. We're making a necklace with beads and charms that we found with recyclable materials. One more step we have while we still have the Dremel, is the clasp. This clasp is just the back of a safety pen. i just cut it off. Just so you know what I did, I just took a piece of, I used scissors and cut right on the end of the safety pen. I just broke my scissors. Anyhow, even though I broke my scissors, what we have is the clasp that we're going to use for the back. It also has sharp edges on both, if you can see. So with the Dremel on the next step, we're going to do the same thing as we did on the charm. We're going to take these edges off, and we can use this to thread the wire through and keep it around our necks. I'll demonstrate that next."
