It looks like what Agates 4-in-1 bead roller does

Look up under today's forum threads Mothers Day Sale 4 In 1. Or you could look up their etsy page called Agate58. His name is Glenn. Or look up CGbeadrollers. They also make a bead roller that makes a bead that looks like that.

I'm thinking of getting one myself

I just love Agate58's rollers. I have depth perception problems and sometimes gouge my beads with cavity rollers. I find this much easier to use.

I wonder how big those beads are. It could also be the Lani Ching Shaper tool. Arrow Springs sells them.


It makes bigger beads than the 4 in 1 tool.

Sweet price on that 4 in 1. I've always used this one^ or their other one, the vessel shaper they sell, I can make any size with that one since it tapers.

I love Heather Trimlett's Groovy Tool for making these beads...it has two sizes on one side and one size on the other.

The large-grooved side is PERFECT for "closing" the edges of two discs when you are making hollow beads. You can read about that at the link below.

It is a tool I depend on frequently!!! I no longer buy "one trick" tools. That's exactly why I love this one. It does SO many things!

You will LOVE it!
