safety wire tips

As another aircraft guy.....been safety wiring for over 20 years, I agree with the above comments. None of the pictures are acceptable to me. If nothing else take it to your local airport and get ask a good aircraft mechanic to show you how. Twist pliers are ok, but the real artists don't use them, just duck bill pliers and side cutters. In my industry your lockwire is like your signature. Also, no more than 3 fasteners should be joined by one length of wire.

My 2 cents
