🔧 The Beadsmith Wig Jig Wig-A-Ma-Jig Deluxe: Wire Findings & Jewelry Design Tool Review

Very well made but not too well thought out. The pins will fall out if you try to wrap wire around them or if the wire gets under most of the pin. I don't think whoever invented this ever tried it. I came up with a pretty good solution. The plastic straw nozzle in the bottle, which comes with every spray bottle, is helpful. Just cut small pieces of this straw and attach them to the bottom of the pins you put in the holes. They seem to be the perfect size and hold the pins in place. After…

I bought this for my wife as she was recently looking for a hobby and it was a lot cheaper than many of its competitors. She likes the simplicity of the theme and enjoyed it. It only comes with a few designs and some of them require a bit of crafting skill. I would say the only downside is that the holes are bigger than the pins. They make up for this by giving you plastic rings that attach to the back of the pen to hold it in place. It's a little tricky to set up and it's best if you use…

I made my first little wire project using your template. First, my thing, the jig, came with little rubber feet and had no problem with the pins slipping out. I would like the stencils to be transparent as it would be easier to carry the pins. I think to print on transparent paper. I'm hoping that the little rubber feet for the pegs can be replaced because they are tiny and will surely get lost slowly. But I have no other complaints. The board itself is nice and heavy, a good size and all the…

Quality is good although the legs kept falling out until I glued them on. The plastic backs of the pens are not compatible in size. Some are too big, some fit well and some are very tight to the point where I have to pry them off with pliers, sometimes messing them up. But in using the device, I found that the narrower the back, the better. I had no problems with the wrong pins. I have found it helpful to use thin cheap wire for practice first before using my expensive sterling wire. This also…

Total disappointment and waste of time/money. If I could give it NO stars I would. Seller received it within 2 days hence one star for service. I had another plastic mount that wasn't very good. I thought since this one is metal it would be better. In theory yes, but not in practice. This is real junk. Holes drilled wrong. Most are too big and the pen just wobbles. Some of them are too small and the pen doesn't fit at all. It's impossible to get a good wrap when the bar is swinging. Also, when…
