I love these crimping pliers, I have actually stopped making items that I have to crimp due to the wires getting crossed and having to waste crimps to try and get it right. I have so much that I could use in making necklaces and it is a shame that I won't because of a little crimp. Thanks for designing a crimping tool for a clutz likke me!!! popspet@comcast.net

So often I think I have my wires straight when crimping only to find that it isn't after the crimp is made. It's so frustrating to redo a crimp. I NEED this new tool!

I LOVE these crimping pliers! I've had to restart a project on many occasions because of unsecured crimps, broken or sloppy crimps, etc. which can be very frustrating, especially after having strung many beads and cut to the right length only to start all over! I would love to win these pliers and they certainly would allow for much less time consuming projects! cilliwon@aol.com
