I find this tool invaluable and love the resulting rounded bead-like crimp it produces. It is a very clean and professional look when finishing a necklace or bracelet.

Note that the crimper does not work well on very fine (0.14) beading flex wire because the crimps tend to slip (though they make great little spacer beads). Read the instructions and size recommendations carefully - the manufacturer does know best!

Just wish that there was one made specifically for the fine gauge wires....

Great tool, perfect for having smaller, nicer crimps (as crimp covers obviously must be larger than the crimp) and no seams as with covers. Definitely recommended.

I tried the crimping pliers and I just could not make them work. I had a friend who told me about the magical crimping pliers and I LOVE THEM! They work great and the crimp looks like a round bead! YEA!!!
