Very best thing I've found for twisting the loop around the wire is a 20 penny nail. Fits nicely in the loop, one twist and you're done. Used to use small plier handle, but nail is quicker. Got one in my fencing bucket that I've used for years- worn nice and smooth now.
Another tip- I use a lot of "field fence"- also called horse fence, wove wire, etc. Splicing is a pain because there are so many wires to splice, especially on the "no- climb" horse fence. I have a piece of flat metal about an inch wide and 2 inches long, with a hole drilled in each end- one is slightly larger than the large wire on top and bottom of the fencing, other is slightly larger than the other size wire. Cut the ends to be spliced about 2 inches long, from the upright wire. Overlap the uprights so they secure against each other. Slip the tool over the wire, about 3 twists around, and your done. Much easier than pliers.
