Recoil Rope Question

[tvenetis 1]

On  putting the wire  on the spool I can get the wire from the outside hole of the spool and feed it to the middle of the spool but how do you feed the wire down the center of the spool to come out of the other hole in the spool to make a loop for the rope.

The wire needs to be bent in such a way to feed both ends of the wire through the holes from inside of the spool out. The factory pieces resemble 1/2 a paper clip and the wire is kind of soft

Can I use a paper clip or is that too heavy 

[Wallfish 714]

Yes. Anything to hold the rope as long as it gets locked on the spool
