Wiggle Wire


Recommended Posts

I've made several from different sized springs. Just pull the spring to it's max so it retains the length. I've a tiny one from a ball point pen up to a giant one made from a garage door spring.

 

 

 

I will now be looking at all springs in a different light.

Thanks for the suggestion and responding.

You can also make them by wrapping music wire (like an old guitar string) around a dowel (which doesn't have to be round) and then pulling the ends like the spring. If you unwind a couple of turns a little before pulling, you'll get non-uniform wiggles (that works for springs too).
