Slowly begin tension the wire starting from the end with the fixed wire. Just by pulling firmly up on the leading wire from the inside, you will set the corner bends on the outside and lock the wire in place. Stabilize each of the preceding bends with some hand pressure as you go, using the other hand to tension the next wire. Don't try to get them all tight the first time through. There should be some back and forth tensioning needed to get it tight. Just go tight enough for the wire to begin resonating like a harp string. As soon as you can hear a tone, any tone, that's good enough. Just make sure they are all equally tight as best you can. Take the leftover end and loop it around the wire previous to it to lock it in place.
