Wire for all experiments!




I have a daughter who is into arts and crafts, mainly into making jewelry. I also have a son who’s into repairing and tweaking electronics, which calls for intricate work, and school work, mainly science. As of a few weeks ago, I have been in the mood to make something with my hands, that didn’t involve cooking in the kitchen. 




I wanted to make something that would last more from plate to mouth, so to speak – something tangible and can be seen by others, and possibly appreciated.


 

The wire comes in 3 different colors and I like this: copper, silver and gold. They are extremely thin: about .4 mm, and it is easy to manipulate to go your way. 





I know the size to be .4, because of the 4 that is has stamped on the front of the reel, so no guessing involved. My daughter and I have used the copper wire to make a simple bracelet last night to see how it would hold up. I used some beads and a clasp, and she tried it on, and it fit. 






Mind you, it isn’t the greatest bracelet, but it was just a test to see how the wiring would hold up. I must say, I like it and can’t wait to use it again for other crafts. Not to mention, what my son will be using it for in his experiments!

Great for my 3rd brake light issue!




I have an LED bar on my truck, and I wanted another for my can attach another LED light for my 3rd brake light. I like the fact that the cords/wires are just about “idiot” proof and their color coordination (green/green, white/white, etc.) Unlike the previous attachment I had for the brake light, this one was strong and sturdy enough to handle the job.



The attachments, such as the pins and connectors, aren’t too shabby either. Again, I had one where the pins moved around and came right out or bent as soon as you try to plug them in. These ones didn’t budge, and even handled me accidentally stepping on it. The split design has thicker wiring protection, so it can outlast the weather, which is nice for me, seeing as how I live in Arizona.



What is nice is I didn’t have to stretch this out to make ends meet. This is about 18 inches long, which splits about halfway up the connector. This was a great find and add for my truck, and now I can feel safer knowing I have a working 3rd brake light again. Also, when the time comes when I have to haul or tow something, I know that I can rely on the splitter to do its job!
