The tool head may include a channel for receiving the hanger and a passage that intersect with the channel and allows a wire to be threaded through the tool head and hanger. The method may involve positioning the hanger in the tool head such that the hanger is releasably engaged by a catch on the head. The wire is then threaded through the tool head and hanger so that opposing portions of the wire extend from the tool head. The hanger is then mounted to a support and released from the catch. Thereafter, the wire twisted about itself by rotating the tool head while moving the tool head downward to draw out the ends of the wire from the tool head.
