I am watching a series called Time Team. One of the episodes was a dig that discovered a lot of Iron Age jewellery like neck rings(Torcs) and bracelets. They always have artisans on site who can replicate what the diggers find and in this episode they showed how to replicate the neck rings and bracelets.
It was intriguing so I decided to try my hand at making an Iron Age copper bracelet. I had some copper wire from an electric motor winding that seemed about the right gage and I went at it.
Five minutes later, I had this...
I don't know how the Vikings managed to do it but I used an electric drill to spin the wires
