I just got my presses, and I'm really excited about them!

Except....

They need some tweaking. They won't allow even a 20 gauge wire to go through the slit. It's pretty rough, so I'm sure some filing would be a good thing for that part of it.

Did anyone else have to tweak their tools so the wire would fit in them? What did you use and how did you do it? (I'm skeered, don't wanna hurt em!)

I had the same problem and I wasn't sure what to do. I was taking a class with Cynthia and brought my press along to get some help. She took a file and filed the burr away...she was familiar with the problem. So she gave the class a demo and it's great!

Barbara, tell me it isn't so! You mean to say you STILL do not have this tool, my bead-tool-fellow-ho-friend!

Cynthia, you are THE Bell Flower Queen! I think you would do every Muranese proud.

Ok, here are the first ones. I think I will need a bit of practice, but I have the sequence of events down.
