    Locked Brummel ......I did it !

    Hey gang,

    I did it ! First time trying to do a locked brummel and I did it on 1.75 Zing - It.

    Photo attached so even I can believe it happened.

    That is a ten cent coin next to the "Dutch Hook"

    Looks great, that 1.75 is tiny stuff to work with.

    Yes it is very tiny...now I need some Amsteel to play with. It was not as bad as I thought it may be.

    Doing it with 1.75mm ZingIt is impressive. After that, Amsteel will be a breeze.
