Shaping the challenge cuff

Okay, figured out how to hold the focal piece in the cuff, now I just need to shape it to fit a wrist!. I put it on my own wrist, then shaped it around the edges of my wrist. Ooops! The focal is too flat! So, I have to take it out, reheat it to make it soft and shape it again. Luckily copper wire is soft so I can remove the focal easily, then relplace it just as easily. I ended up shaping the focal on a small juice glass before placing it back into the cuff.
