Is it thin enough in diameter for stringing .9mm beads?

yes I had used this last October to have kids make beaded breast cancer bracelets. We had no trouble.

Yes if the viscosity is the same as water. I haven't tried anything thicker than that. I use colloidal silver in mine.

You need to determine what size holes are in beads you are using so the line will fit obviously. Next criteria would be how strong you want it to be. Berkley gives their line diameters as .011" diameter for 8# test, up to .044" diameter for 130# test. There are numerous choices in-between those 2 sizes. Their website will give more details. http://www.berkley-fishing.com/Berkley%C2%AE-Trilene%C2%AE-Big-Game%E2%84%A2/1285546,default,pd.html#start=1

I don't think so. It's pretty thin and easy to break. I used it to weave a chair bottom and I really needed a stronger thread.

No, It would not. The diameter of the hole in the bead is only about 0.7 mm. For leather beading try the www.Artbeads.com and go to "Beads", then "Sterling Silver Beads", then "Tube Beads". There, you will find a nice selection of beads with holes large enough for your leather to fit through. I personally have purchased the "Sterling Silver 6.5mm Filigree Cylinder Beads". I love them, they are super shiny. I think you will be very happy with this website. Also, they ship fast. I received my beads in 2-3 days from the time I ordered them. Hope this helps you. Sue

It would work great. I use it for craft beads. Get the plastic see through so you can see what's in the bottom.

If you have a clamp/vise this will work well for soft plastic beads. This is for a sure a 2 handed operation.

Medium thickness yes. If they are smaller than a normal pick size it may be difficult.

I'm not sure- I havent tried it on any man made beads and not sure what would work- a Dremel? possibly?

Yes, it is possible. But if you are using glass beads, I would not get the bead too close, it will break it. As long as the bead isn't too large. I had a small glass bead break when I got to close to the "looping" part of the tool. I am still learning with it though.

Yes 20 gauge will be just fine. I use 20 and 24 gauge beading wire for these beads. The lower the number of gauge the thicker the wire. I like to use a fine beading wire for these tiny beads. Heavier glass beads I will use a 24 gauge. I hope that this helps you out.

.030 guage. They can be used for silk depending on how fine the silk is. If it is very fine, you might want to use a thinner pin.

I would think so.. the tube is not very big and if you use a yarn that is tight, it should be good.

Ok this one has a 15 gauge needle, the larger the number for the gauge the thinner the needle will be so depending on how thin you want just go with a higher gauge number.

It would depend on what type of beading i think. If it is seed beads then yes, it would...and it seems to work best on flat back type of things. i hope this is of some help! :)

Hi James, I'm not sure they're designed to gut fine wire up to 1.5mm in diameter. For fine electrical work. If guitar strings are hard they mat put a gap in the cutting edge of the tool. Paul
