Loop wires are curious. I've always wondered how they managed to make the loops. Appears they wound the wire around a post, but how did they do that without moving the entire wire spool around the post?

Gatekeeper, I have wondered about this myself.
I love the heavy line loop wires. I believe the "post" must have moved in and made the loop them moved out as the wire moved along... i don't know .
More research required!!!
