I'm glad you found something that works for you, and I'm still absolutely delighted you tackled your bead work again. I am so glad you don't have to wait for your daughter to come and crimp for you!
Warm regards,

Sahar, the Platinum Princess of Beading,
Yes, I used to use the crimper tool so I know how it works. But, this took
makes it look so nice. It is flattened, yet rounded at the edges, so it
looks very very polished. I don't know what else to call it. Not flat like
other tools I tried years ago, before I had learned about the criimper tool.
And, this tool makes a crimp that is so smooth and the silver looks so nice.
I am hooked. Laurie told me about doing it this way. It really IS nice.
