Yup, I did it. Had to work REALLY hard at it too! Spent a boatload of time getting a beautiful finish on a 1.5 oz Charktail Needlefish, forgot to put the swivel on before I wrapped the wire........ you can guess the rest.
SNAP!
So I need a new wire. How do I go about that? Of course, after the fact I realized I could have just added a split ring to the loop and mounted the swivel to that.
