He takes 3 m"m wire. cut this shape: I_I By bending a short piece of =
wire let us say 1.5" long you reinforce it. Now he make "stairs" in =
each end with a delicat file - tool.=20
Oh I forgot to say it!
The dies are made from his leftovers damaged aluminum ( we are like the =
English people aluminyum) He hammers them, makes the shape and small =
