Review on ๐Ÿ”— Beadalon Oval Jump Ring Maker: Easy-to-Use Tool for Crafting 4x6mm, 5x7mm, and 6x8mm Rings by Jennifer Roberts

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Oval adapter rings cannot be created with this tool.

As the title suggests, this tool was not capable of making oval jump rings. Of course you can wind the coil onto the mandrel, but you can't take it off. The process of wrapping the wire around the mandrel hardens the metal, making the wire spring truly unstoppable. If you can somehow remove the coil, it instantly turns into a twisted, useless jump ring coil. Rings must not be sawn or cut with a flat cutter. You may be able to remove the 2 adapter rings with a cutter, but you cannot bypass the spool by turning the cutters flush for each ring. Take a look at the oval jump ring and you'll see why. I even tried annealing the wire before winding it but it still didn't work. If anyone knows the secret to getting this thing to work please let me know. Maybe successful people make a 1 inch spool? Tell.

Pros
  • Quick
Cons
  • Damaged
