Guys I do not burn both ends before tying the loop. One is burned before tying and the other is burned when finished tying.

I burn one end into a ball and tie that side on my bow string and pull it as tight as I can with my hand. Then tie the other side on the opposite side of the bow string, pull this side snug, cut the tag end about 3/8" long and fluff and melt that side. Then stick a needle nose plier inside the loop and open them up to pull the loop very tight on the bow string.

The pliers gets everything tight instantly and you don't have to draw back a bunch of times with a screw driver until the release will fit. Open up the pliers and you are done.

Doing it this way will be much quicker and less frustrating that trying to do it with both ends already melted. Especially if you have large fingers. The loop is tight and just long enough to get a release behind the nock with out touching it.
