Very professional indeed,I like what I see.
ReplyDeleteAttach wire into variable drill. Attach into what part of drill? I think the point is the rope fibers will spin around with wire (I think). For me there's a step missing or needs to be better described. Please explain?
ReplyDeleteGarry, as you can see the end of the wire which is to form the trunk is inserted into drill chuck. The u end of the wire is grasped with a pliers and held firmly. The drill is then turned on will the wind the wire up causing the fibers to flare around the wound wire forming a bottle brush appearance. Hope this is clearer.
