While continuing to hold the left side steady, twist the right side back toward you a quarter-turn past the closed position. 4. Begin to bring your Jump ring back into the closed position. As you twist back, very gently push the right side in just enough to make sure that the edges of the two ends make contact with each other. You will hear a click.

This will work harden the silver into the closed position. The ring is now "LOCKED" securely.
