I want to make large holed lampwork beads....

Jan 05, 2007 4 Replies

But cannot find stainless steel in a large enough gauge - or is there a better device used (as a mandrel)?



As a newbie to lampwork, I need a little direction... and would appreciate any help! Happy 2007!

try hunting for stainless steel TUBING.

dip in release as you would a regular mandrel.

AND - I once knew a gal that bought Stainless steel chopsticks at a restaurant supply house - and made beads on those... She gave me one in fact....
