    When I'm making rosaries, the one-step looper and bent nose pliers are a real game-changer. It really reduces my labor cost per rosary and I pass that savings on to my customers.
    When I use the long nose pliers with teeth, I scratch the metal. I just get smooth long nose pliers that grip well. I'm shocked to see some of my go-tos on the hate list. 😅

    If you don't use your bent nose pliers, you should, give them a try you may change your mind about them them. They will get around corners when wrapping wire so much easier as well as other awkward things you may get into.

    Thanks for another great video. I may add, whatever you buy, get a high quality tool, generally not what they have at most of the larger craft stores. They will last longer and cutters won't get dull as fast as the cheapo ones. May God continue to bless you also!!

    You know, I was DYING to get that one step looper for the longest time. Like, every day that I didn’t have it was causing me physical pain, but I couldn’t really afford it. My daughter gave me one for Christmas last year, and I immediately hated it. I made a linked necklace with it, and several links opened up 😐. I’ll stick with my handmade wrapped loops. 😉

    Thanks for your thoughts!
    Recently started doing more jewelry making (I work mostly in wire, metals, stones, etc.) and so far I have been grateful for my regular sized heavy duty wire cutters (I already had a pair in my luthier tool kit and use them for my guitars) as well as a nylon coated flat nosed pliers for unkinking wire. If using wire at all, these two tools are worth having and can be used in many ways.
    On the other end of the spectrum, I have a mini set (actually might have two but not sure where the other one is if I still have them) are a set consisting of cutters, round nose, and flat regular pliers. While I am glad I have them for now, I find the mini size are much harder to work with, believe it not, especially if I am doing something really small. Might sound counterintuitive, but it's true!
    I would like to get all full sized.

    This is great! I do love the one step looper, however the down side is sometimes it doesn't cut the wire, it'll bend it instead. But, the 1.5 mm 1 step looper I still love because it has saved my wrist countless hours of agitating the arthritis in my wrists. I do agree you still have to take extra steps with pushing the loops together with the long nose pliers. Great tutorial though!!

    I am glad to know about the looper tool, I had been eyeing that one but I haven't taken the plunge yet. The teeth on a plier for me is a no because it mars the wire.

    • @DezyJewelry
      @DezyJewelry  Год назад +2

      Oh good. Glad I could help there.
      Yes totally. At the time of this video I just used wire to string my beads not the kind you wire wrap. So wire wrap those pliers would not work but to string beads they help me pull the 0.3 or 0.45 wire that I use. Does that make sense?

    Hello! Thank you for this! Question! If you use pliers with the griping threads, how do you keep from making marks/indentions on the o rings and loops?

    • @DezyJewelry
      @DezyJewelry  Год назад

      So I wish I would have clarified this in the video. I need the gripping threads for my necklace wires. Like my 0.3mm & 0.45mm
      But if I do thicker wire to wire wrap then I need pliers without thread. If that makes any sense.

      I think I would have looked up the names of all the tools before making the video. I've been making jewelry for just as long and don't always remember the name of the tools I'm using. Did you show a crimp tube crimper tool? I have always used that tool. I use the back divot to smash the wires with the crimp tube. They must not overlap. Then the next divot is used to smash the crimp tube in half . The next is for a crimp tube cover. Is that the tool you showed? Also, I was told never to use pliers that have teeth. I'm trying to find a product that you dip tools in so as not to mark the wire. Thank you for the information! 🙂

    Dess for your cutters look at Klein , Gedore , C K and other quality cutters ( look at Lingstrom they do very expensive cutters for circuit board work but are not cheap )cutters are made from cheap steel which blunts easily you need something called tool steel I'am from the Uk I have 4 sets of cutters and 1 cable sheers cheapest was £28 to £45 you pay for what you get and I have more pilers than you lol

    The reason those cutters get dull so fast is the cheap metal craftsman is using in their new stuff that’s made in china. Buy an old American made set of craftsman cutters and they’ll stay sharp.
