Hi
Donna, I
wanted to let you know
how highly I rate these tools – having been a press girl for quite a
long while and really struggled with any form of handshaping! These
tools are a boon and enable me to make
lovely consistently shaped and sized beads. I feel that your tools have
improved the quality of my beads vastly and unleashed my creativity as
I no longer have to
fret too much about uniformity! Karen

Donna,
The
bead rollers are perfect for
boro! They are just enough to help you to get the shape you are
looking
for because the boro doesn't flow the same as soda lime glass. Hope
all
is well in your world....and hope there are more new designs flowing in
your mind!
Regards, Darcy

Thanks Donna! I just love
your tools! I don't know how I
ever got along without them. I have some issues with my wrists and arms
and to find something that makes shaping so much less of a strain is
priceless. It's fantastic to be able to make consistent sized beads
time after time. These have cut down so much on the fatigue I feel in
my arms and wrist and increased my productivity..Thank you for such an
awesome product line! Audrey

| I
have to tell you that I love your You Tube video. I am a
visual learner, and after seeing your videos it is now so very clear on
how to use them. I even practiced on the two that I already have and
cannot believe how easy it is to make perfect beads with so little
effort. Thanks!!! Jo-Anne Haberern |

There
is really a very
small learning curve with these
tools!
I tell you.... these tools are THE BOMB! And again, the quality of the
graphite is so silky smooth...... way better then your average graphite
paddle. They are worth every penny (even though poor school kids will
be missing their pencils to do their math!)

Had
it not been for your
helpful
videos, Donna, I wouldn't have had a
clue on how to use my newly acquired "Disc" Beadroller and surely would
have been frustrated as heck! I definitely need practice - and
clearly
learned that "less is more" when applying the footprint - but all in
all I'm pretty happy with my
first tries! Made these last night - and didn't have more than a 30
minute window to create all of these - so having the roller (and of
course, having a CLUE on how to use it) was a HUGE HELP! ~DeAnne~

Hi Donna,
Thanks for the speedy shipping! I can't wait to try my
new disc roller!
I bought the new round bead roller back in July and it
arrived just before I went to the Gathering, so I didn't get a chance
to use it until I came back. Donna, THAT is the tool I've
been dreaming about for YEARS!!! It's so versatile. I use it
for checking volume before I press, not to mention making perfect
rounds in any size. The best part is having all the sizes I need in
just one paddle. It's the one tool on my bench that I just can't
do without. Thank you so much for making these!!! Take
care,
Dawn

| I've
purchased 4 already and I use them every torching session. They
replace my regular marver - the back side- and I use them to
shape or
marver almost every bead. I highly recommend them - but
then I don't
need to tell you that! Valerie |

Hey Donna!
I read the
other day that someone said you can spend time on the bead, not the
basic shape. And that is it, besides getting earring pairs the same
size. I have found mine very easy to use and it is the one tool that I
use the most. Thanks! Kate
