Barbed-wire Tutorial

A tutorial by (very) popular demand for the secret to making your own barbed wire for use as a photography prop.
I have taken a lot of time and effort to do this for everyone, so please do not give me abuse for it.

Other stuff
Please be careful when doing this tutorial. I will not be held responsible for people that can't wield a pair of snips. If you cur yourself while doing this tutorial, don't come moaning to me. You're a big kid now.
The wire: cost about £5.50
The snips: cost about £4.00
The vice: cost about £12.00
I do not expect you all to rush out and buy these things- I've used the vice so many times now, as well as the snips. They are both well used, so don't waste your money unless you're sure you'll use it again!
