if you re-read your post, you would see that the words Wire wool create a link to a page with all the information you could possibly desire.

It's not an exact science - the people I last saw making cages just wrapped the mesh around their forearms a couple of times before taking their arm out and folding the ends of the tube over.

now the question comes in, what's it like standing there with a shower of molten metal raining down around you?

Lol yea. Not to scary though. DO helicopter and things like that first though, cause with fig 8 and weaves, the sparks come down on top of you.

Exactly, it's not fun. So only do helicopter and over the head moves.

I do the 3 and 5 beat and do turn arounds while spinning wool. The only thing I suggest is wearing a bandana, I synged my hair the first time I did it by having a piece land in my hair. Otherwise if you are not a girlscout it is not really scary. Just remember the harder you spin the farther it flys.

Check my gallery for some pics I just put on of my last spin with them.
