CS--I can't make out the 3rd pic to good. Are you making the first bend with the plier nose and then continue the wrap on the nail?
THANKS! Gotta get some of that screen cleaner.:D

1... wire through plug
2. bend wire at about 30 degee's that's coming out of the plug.
3.take needle nose plier's and make your first loop[circle]
4.place the loop over a nail or pin , grab the tag end with vise grips and start bending the wire around it's self,,, cut off tag end.
