I inherited some tools from my grandfather some of which I've never used until today. I decided to try to make a hook and loop clasp which was so fun and easy that I will be buying many less clasps in the future now that I can make them. And I'm using some of them in my new sea glass jewelry.
Pictured above are the tools I used
First I used pliers to to bend a small piece of wire to be the "loop" side
Then I used the hammer to flatten it
and used the pliers again to pinch the ends in so there were no gaps
for the hook side I started by hammering a bit flat and then bent it to form the hook
next I bent another loop and hammered the loop part flat as well
Quick and easy!
