Firstly, find the half way point in your chain and cut it in half using \u003ca href=\"\/products\/silversmithing-and-tools\/all-silversmithing-tools\/item\/side-cutters-c123\"\u003eside cutters\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2. Next, take about 10cm of 0.3mm round wire. You may wish to harden the wire a little before use as it is quite fine and flexible. An easy way to do this is to hold either end of the wire with snipe or flat nose pliers and twist gently in opposite directions, you will notice after twisting a few times the wire will feel a little stiffer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3.
