Dang it sounds like ya'll go to a lot of work!
I take the bead off the mandrel by holding one end in a pair of pliers and twisting the bead off. The mandrels then go into a mason jar till I am ready to dip. When ready to dip I just swipe a rag over the mandrel and dip and stick in a flower pot of sand! No rinsing in water, no scrub a dub dub, just swipe, dip and stick!
The beads go into a bowl of warm water till I am ready to clean them with a dremel, put in bowl of clean water, run a pipe cleaner thru them and dry them with a towel.
