Cade,
The clear material holding the wire is hot glue. I use a hot glue gun for placing of wires on retainers before acrylic lay up as well. I find that hot melt glue from "Stanley" products to work best. Other hot melts are o.k. but don't set as hard. Removal is easy.

Trisha,
I will get all pics up of the Bionator. It is made using a fixator. I bought a couple of them years ago, treated well, they don't wear out. I took the GL course on Bionators when they were in Calif.(long time ago) The most help I got to perfect the process came from hiring a couple emplyees now and again form GL in Ca. As well as people from PAR, Pro, and other small labs as well.
You could do one of these, they are easy, just follow the pics.
I will post wire sizes and variations on the Bionator later.
Got a busy week again...again...again....
More pics to follow on the complete Bionator. The lucky kid is already using this one, some where in the bay area. All pics are of the same appliance.
