Great tool for creating professional results!

It took some practice. But it does what it says on the tin as long as you use the right size tubing. Gives your product a professional look. Crimp no longer covers scratched squares.

Pros
  • Good performance
Cons
  • old

No more hiding the crimp!

This is amazing! Best used for high quality 2mm x 2mm ferrules. As long as you don't press too hard and follow the directions on the packaging, you'll end up with a pretty piece that you'll be happy to show off. No more trying to hide that ugly broken clip!

Pros
  • bead and jewelry making
Cons
  • boring packaging

Doesn't crimp as easily as the old crimping tool

I broke the last two beads after stringing entire necklaces trying to install this bead crimping tool. Very frustrated with having to retighten the strings etc. The old Taco style still works best for me. The crimps that worked with this tool, even after many trial runs, didn't ravioli as nicely on the first crimp as the creator intended.

Pros
  • Jewelry Pliers
Cons
  • Long Delivery Time

Not practical!

I don't think this product works well. I saw it being used on Youtube and thought it looked simple and very cool. But once I've used it on 2 necklaces, BOTH opened up when worn. You need to make a round bead out of the pinch, and after a while, further pressing it with this tool, it will come out somehow. However, this violates the tightness of the crimp. I returned this product and went back to my regular crimping tool and added a round crimp cap. It's an extra step and detail, but the old way

Pros
  • Jewelry making tools and supplies
Cons
  • Slightly torn
