@robertacasha Glad you like it! And yes, always a good idea to practice bit. But they're easy to get the hang of.

[@robertacasha]

It's a nice tool. I have used it many times. You just need to take the time to get the adjustment correct. Start with practice wire!

These look very nice. I am teaching a course in the coming months and putting the finishing touches on my materials list. I may have to pick these up. Thank you for sharing. :) I always enjoy the Rio Grande videos. Have a great day. :)

I just do it with my fingers and it looks just as good. But I guess if you are making them in quantity it might be worth the money.

[@Winksartist]

Excellent. What is the cost and where can itbe bought in the UK?

[@stevecoster322]

Sorry but is this guy crap, he can't hold anything steady or work the tool or talk well. Some of your guys like Mark are perfect, if you can-do, if you can't-don't...
