Another beading tool
Fishing line comes in different sizes starting from 0.2mm, 0.25mm, 0.30mm, 0.35mm, 0.40mm, 0.45mm, 0.50mm, 0.60mm etc
It is the main type of thread commonly used in stringing beads or knitting beads together (needle works: we will learn this later in our classes)
Tiger tail
Tiger tail wire (also simply called tiger tail or tiger-tail) is a kind of thin wire encased in nylon often used in beaded jewellery, and that is particularly suited to stringing heavy beads and sharp beads, which tend to fray other kinds of thread.
An example of a necklace stringed with tiger tail is below:
Basically used for cutting threads or wires when making jewelries
Head pins are usually used to put a bead on, with the "head" functioning as a kind of stop so the bead won't just fall.
Crimping tools may be broadly defined as devices to make connections between two items using
compressive force to constrict or deform a specially designed connector element
The crimping pliers have two notches or "stations." The first station, which is farthest from the tip of the pliers, has a dimple in the middle and is used to squeeze
This is to prevent beads from falling off the end of the strand.
