How to use
Select an appropriate length of FANDY 6mm craft wire for your project and cut it with suitable wire cutters. Bend or shape the wire by hand for gentle curves or use pliers and mandrels for tighter forms and loops. When using the wire to create supports or frames, test-fit components before final fastening. For decorative finishes, consider wrapping with thinner wire, fabric, or tape to achieve the desired appearance and to protect contact points.
Usage recommendations
Wear safety glasses and gloves when cutting or manipulating the wire to avoid sharp ends. Use appropriate pliers and cutters to achieve clean cuts and precise bends. For outdoor or moisture-exposed projects, apply a protective coating or select a wire variant rated for corrosion resistance if long-term durability is required.
