Beading tools push/pull?

[William VanOsdel]

I use the 66 on a push but recently had to make a tool to finish a project and this worked best on the pull. Since it was the last of the beading work I had to do. Just didn't try the other way w/ the 66.
thanks Vano

The blade in the #66 leans forward and, with its wide, flat sole, this beader can only work in one direction. Other beaders, such as the new Veritas (Preston) beader, have a rounded sole that tilts either way, and can be used in either direction.

Howdy William and welcome to the Creek.

There is an oft repeated saying here, "if there are no pictures, it didn't happen."

Folks would love to see your shop made beading tool and the work it did.
