Now you want to close the loop, being certain that the 3/8 mark is on center of the loop, close it jist enough to allow a #1/0 swivel to go through, it takes practice to learn just how much to close the loop...
Next, I make a buching that will be go into the body of the plug, this will keep the wire from expanding ito the wood and becoming loose with time...
I use a .341 tail gromet and drill it out with a 3/16 drill bit, by clamping the edge of the washer in a vise, I've trie holding with a vise grips but the vise is the best,. safest way... I probaly could go and buy some 3/16 washers, but that would be too easy!
