Rope edging on bezels ?

One benefit of using a hand drill is that you can make mirror image twisted wires, good for some designs. I don't know if that wire twisting pliers gadget is reversible, maybe it is.

Drill driver is also reversible - screw / unscrew.

Aeronautical application ... 'fair do'. A pair of molegrips always did the trick when fencing.

I've done this a few times by twisting square wire really tight, put one end in the vice & hold the other end with parallel pliers and keep twisting!

I use my $5 found at garage sale cordless drill to twist wire. I can set the speed, or reverse it. Super simple!

you need a drill with a keyed or keyless chuck, the snap-on ones don't work, (Like my Dewalt) they won't hold the wire.

Ended up doing it by hand with a vice and a pair of pliers, didn't take very long actually
