Thought it was time to use some of my wire stash. Using the wire twister I produced a long length of the gold plated copper wire, and without any idea where it would take me, just decided to go with the flow. After coiling the first end, the idea was to make a matching coil on the other end, but it seemed a shame not to use the excess wire, so I turned it into a leaf shape, and coiled all the single pieces of wire at the end. I did think about filling in the leaf shape with a finer gauge wire, but decided, in the end, to keep it all simple. As if by magic, the large coil slots together with the leaf end to close the torque.
