- How to make tube shaped end caps using "Wubbers" brand pliers
Regular round nose pliers can be used to make cone-shaped end caps on thin viking knit chains, but on thicker chains, a more traditional tube shaped end cap is easier to make and works better.
Wubbers* are a special type of plier that have straight sides, so you get the advantages and gripping power of using a round nose pliers, with the same results as using a dowel or a mandrel.

TOOLS YOU'LL NEED:
Wubbers pliers
Flat nose pliers
Round Nose Pliers
Flush cutters
Jeweller's file
Rouge Cloth
Ruler
Fine tip permanent marker (optional)
MATERIALS YOU'LL NEED:
How much wire you'll need will depend on how thick your viking knit is. I recommend using at least 12" (30 cm) of 20 ga Round Soft or Dead Soft wire per end cap.

This is exactly how I do mine! I do add one more step to place them back on the wrap and tap and lightly hammer the top. Nice demonstration!
