I couldn't live without my Noodlesaurus punties!!! I create some honker murrini gathers though! So there would just be no way in heck to do them without my steel handles!

Here's a snap of the Clown Fish gather before pulling...it was almost 3" x 1" thick!

I LOVE all the help offered and I always end up learning so many cool tips! My murrini always looks like I made it after too many martinis!

See how little waste there is and how much farther you can pull the cane down?



The stainless steel disk punties make it a lot easier to get as much heat as you need into the ends of your cane before you pull, which is one of the most important factors in getting an even pull. They've made a real difference in the quality of my murrini and I think everyone should have a pair. (And no, I am not on the Noodlesaurus payroll -- I just really love these punties.)
A new tutorial when will it be ready?
