Step 5:  Grasp one of the loops around either peg 2 or peg 3 with either nylon jaw pliers or with chain nose or bent chain nose pliers.  Hold firmly, but not so firmly that it marks the wire.  While holding one of the loops, push the loose wire tail that leads from that loop down so that it is perpendicular to the wire segment that went between pegs 2 and 3. 

Step 6:  While continuing to hold the wire, wrap the wire around the wire segment between pegs 2 and 3.  This wrap should happen near the middle of this link. 

Step 7:  Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the other 1/2 of the link.

Step 8:  Cut the wire tails off both sides of this link.  Be sure to cut with the flat side of the flush cutter toward the finished piece. 

Step 9:  While holding the link in nylon jaw pliers or chain nose pliers, press the cut ends of the wire down and tight to the link using another pair of chain nose or bent chain nose pliers.
