Tip: Instead of using really large jump rings to connect our gears together, we are instead going to use separated out oval chain links from a Vintaj Arte Metal Chain.
- Begin this necklace by opening and separating out 8 Vintaj Arte Metal long oval links. You can open these just like jump rings, do not close them at this time.
- Using the open links from above as jump rings, connect together your C-Koop gears in the following order: 1 red 19mm gear, 1 25mm gray gear, 1 25mm orange gear, 1 25mm black gear, and 1 19mm red gear.
- Cut your Vintaj Arte Metal flat cable links chain into two 6 inch segments.
- Use one of your long oval links to connect one of the 6 inch chain lengths to one of the red C-Koop gears. On the other side of the 6 inch piece of chain, use another long oval link to connect one half of your Vintaj Arte Metal hook and eye clasp.
- Repeat the previous step on the other side of your necklace.
- Enjoy!
