I actually agree with the tools and glass list to be shown in advance, so folks will know what they need to make the project. I am going to do that. I think with tools, it's a bit of a different story. Tools are expensive and sometimes cannot be substituted like glass can. I am an experienced bead maker and I would know how to substitute glass. If I was a newbie, I still would not have posted this issue in this fashion. I would have contacted the author and than maybe started a thread with no innuendoes about who's tut I was referring too, and just make a generalized statement or maybe a poll on this issue and hashed it out that way.

I do though, understand what Birdy is trying to get across.
