I wanted a round mandrel, but it can't be round.

I needed a round mandrel but it can't round my smaller jump rings. It doesn't have 1/8" ID connector rings, but maybe it could get a 1/4" ID or 1/8" ID? You must clearly state the actual top dimension of this mandrel. I will include it Try knitting.Needles.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Excellent frame

I needed this frame to make small round bezels. I'm glad I bought them. It's stainless steel, although I'm not sure if it's hardened. It doesn't deform when I snap the bezels on it, but I don't fucking fight them either. I need a few other shapes but I wanted to use these for a while before buying cheaper mandrels. After using this for a while I will definitely buy other ones I need. I recommend

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Not quite round!

I hate giving negative reviews but both times I ordered this "round" mandrel I did not receive a fully round mandrel. I returned the first one and left her with the guesswork of doubt that the second one would be round. No, it was even more feline than the first. This mandrel is fairly "thrifty" in the sense that it's only slightly round - it's certainly not a perfect circle. If you don't need a perfect circle, then this is your mandrel! Unfortunately it wasn't as described and I couldn't use…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions
