So far, I think I'm the only one using C-Lon and I like it. It seems to be equivalent to SoftFlex, and I got a good deal on it. As always, I use sterling crimp beads on it and give it a good tug before proclaiming the item finished. Haven't had a piece fail on me at all, and the drape is pretty.

Those tags are available from

Also, check out his Miyuki mixes. I need more 5/0 traingles, they seem to magically turn into colorful, widely requested necklaces.

Hallmarks have to be registered with the Assay Office here in UK. That is so no one else is allowed to use a hall mark that is the same. This is for using with precious metals. One has to pay to get the mark registered then again every 10 years to keep it .

I would not think that one needs to register a tag that has just got their name on it as the maker. A punch would be required to do them professionally. Hand engraving would take forever and would have to be really good to make an impact. I would say it would be better if you could find someone who can do it by machinery. Shirley

Love the C-Lon...it seems to split and stretch much less than Nymo. Mary Lind

Has anyone seen jewelry tags in gold-filled?
