irene: I know abosolutely nothing about beading but I do need to learn how to "string told bugle beads so as to fashion a bugle bead trim", This is to be used on my daughter's wedding dress. The dress we are copying has gold bugle beads with a "clear ice bead entwined which gives the appearance of a sprinkle of silver. I do hope I have made myself somewhat clear. This trim is not very wide--just under 1/2 in (?). I will need about 40 yards or so. Any ideas on how to do this trim?

varner teel: I have found a string of ancient beads, clay beads, with intricate carvings on them, along with the beads there were to little scarab beads carved out of some kin?J - dialup26.8krac1.shasta.com - Monday, September 28, 1998 at 22:16:27 (EDT)
Lissa: Hi Milo! Can you get the magazine Bead and Button? They are advertized in there. It is a simple gadget--a smallish spinning wooden bowl that you fill with the beads you want to string. It comes with a couple of loooong needles with a curve in the end. You spin the bowl with your left hand, and stick the curved part of the needle into the beads with your right. The centrifical force pushes the beads up onto the needle...and they crawl right up that long shaft. When the shaft is full, you tip the needle up and let them run down your thread. It is verrrry handy for stringing lots of the same color seed bead. I bought mine for $40. - ip-21-153.phx.primenet.com - Monday, September 28, 1998 at 11:24:40 (EDT)
Milo: What is a bead spinner? Me thinks I must need one if they are so good. Pete I have not tried the bottles yet because now my most pressing need is Propylene, the only stuff we seem to have out here is imported - Webber brand and only one place seems to stock it at $27 for a throwaway cylinder, seems expensive when, if you have the cylinder you can get refills for $2 of the lower temperature stuff, I may have to work with the Dichroic glass as they say it likes a lower temperature.Seems like someone does not want me to make beads as now it is Spring here in Australia and the weather has been too great to stay inside looking at little blue flames. - 203.4.79.11 - Sunday, September 27, 1998 at 18:03:14 (EDT)
Pete: Lissa -- Glad you solved your problem even if I didn't help. = Peace - acc-27.northnet.org - Saturday, September 26, 1998 at 15:57:26 (EDT)
Lissa: I trotted over to Beads & Adornables (local bead store) and they sold me their Bead Spinner from their workshop. Neat toy! It is doing wonders--I'm stringing directly onto the wire. I love it! - ip-20-016.phx.primenet.com - Friday, September 25, 1998 at 17:29:18 (EDT)
Lissa: Pete: I'm using...um...24 gauge wire I believe it is, and size 11 seed beads. The beads just fit onto the wire as it is--doubling it over to fit through the needle won't work in this case (though I'll keep it in mind for future work). The 8th century Japanese flower basket on page 5 of vol 7 of 'Beads Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers' caught my eye, and I made a version of it. Now I'm experimenting on making other baskets with strung beads, and I need the wire stiff enough to hold its shape. I'm having a marvelous time--I just finished a small fruit basket (based on some late 1500's paintings of actual baskets) out of seed beads strung on tiger tail. But the stringing of the weavers takes *forever*. :) - ip-22-075.phx.primenet.com - Friday, September 25, 1998 at 11:25:44 (EDT)
Pete: Mary T. (and all lurkers) -- Just before going to bed (yes, I'm a night person) reviewing the day's activities I realized that I made a major goof. I did not mean to say that this was a Nueva Cadiz bead. Ignore that. My message should have begun "It sounds like a San Pedro Quiatoni pendant from SPQ, Mexico..." The rest of the message is correct. For those interested in the history of thought processes, I was searching my mind to see if the pendant in question was on thebeadsite.com and landed on the page E-book 1/American Frontier/Spanish Brought, where there are Nueva Cadiz beads. = Peace and Good Night - acc-33.northnet.org - Friday, September 25, 1998 at 02:48:51 (EDT)
Pete: Lissa -- That's how they do it. That's also how they used to do it in Venice (they may have learned from the Indians). I am not sure how it is done now. I didn't make myself clear. The wire is a needle and the wire you are using would be strung through the eye of a needle. Is your wire stiff? Could you sharpen one end? Maybe the bead spinner would be better. Mary T. -- It sounds like a Nueva Cadiz bead from San Pedro Quiatoni, Mexico, where they are heirlooms. I don't have one pictured on the site. What color is it? No one really knows where and when they were made, but some have suggested they were products of an early Mexican glass factory, perhaps the one in Puebla or elsewhere. If you want to pursue this email me through the office and we can talk or keep chatting here. = Peace - acc-8.northnet.org - Thursday, September 24, 1998 at 20:22:43 (EDT)
Lissa: Pete: That is how they string the hanks to begin with, isn't it? Is it all done by hand still, or is it mechanized now? Anyway...not sure that would work, because I would still have to transfer the beads to the wire I'm using from the needles. Someone else suggested the Bead Spinner that is on the market now--said they had used it to transfer beads directly to wire instead of using the needle provided with the gadget. I'll have to track one down and give it a try... - ip-23-007.phx.primenet.com - Thursday, September 24, 1998 at 17:18:20 (EDT)
Mary T.: I was telling a friend about this board, and she asked me ask about a bead she was given that is she was told is from Central America: it a long, clear glass bead with a loop on the end, not a bead, really, but a long piece of glass with a loop. She was told it's an old bead from around the time the Spanish first came to that part of the world. I haven't seen this in any books. TIA! 8-) - 169.203.195.245 - Thursday, September 24, 1998 at 12:50:25 (EDT)
Pete: Milo -- Good for you. You know, you can also recycle glass bottles, etc. If you are going to put two glasses together, first check to see if they are compatible. Melt them next to each other and pull them out into a long thread. The more curve in the thread the less compatible. Lissa -- If you can find the right long, thin needles (they make them out of piano wire in India) you could dump the beads in a flat basket and pass a dozen or so needles through them. You'd pick up several beads per pass/per needle. Just a thought. Gial -- thanks for your kind words. Check at Bead Events. Can't think of anything right off hand, but I only post them. = Peace - acc-18.northnet.org - Wednesday, September 23, 1998 at 20:02:26 (EDT)
Milo: Gee thanks for the info you have given me. I now have a copy of Cindy Jenkins book, found a supplier of sorts and with broken or used equipment made my first beads. Only popped one piece of rod, had a couple of beads crack after I tried to release them but came out of an afternoons work feeling good. Have four lamp beads of varying effects considering the ucky coloured rods I had to choose from, I used the broken bits to adhere to the bead I made, tried to pull stringers and then wind them around my efforts, don't think I would be my first customer though. I am going to have to get some more glass and a cheaper gas supplier - I paid $27 for a Weller cylinder with temp to 3600'F. Do most of your glass people carry the rods I need or only some of them? Thanks again for your help Pete. Will keep you posted as I progress. - 203.4.79.11 - Wednesday, September 23, 1998 at 18:30:08 (EDT)
Lissa: Does anyone have a good idea on how to quickly string seed beads on tigertail or beading/craft wire? I need to string a hank or three at a time, and it is taking me *hours*. I've been sliding it from the hank thread onto the wire. - ip-22-124.phx.primenet.com - Wednesday, September 23, 1998 at 00:44:33 (EDT)

Ruby: I let a friend of mine know about the site and the book. (Diane R.) she said she would buy the book at Barnes and Noble.... I probably will too... - d247.velocity.net - Monday, September 21, 1998 at 09:16:49 (EDT)
Ruby: Dear Ms. Rachel, Yes, you are describing the same thing i mentioned, although i don't have them at hand and was trying to remember if they were worth buying. Good photos, but i don't remember seeing much text? Also, thank you Pete, for the info on the site. Thanks to both of you for taking the time!!! See Ya! - d247.velocity.net - Sunday, September 20, 1998 at 16:35:41 (EDT)
Ms. Rachel: Ruby--If the Picard books you're refering to are the one's I'm thinking of--saw a series of something more along the lines of a pamphlet when visiting the Picard Museum--it doesn't sound like what you are looking for. Maybe not exactly what you want for information on specific beads, but the photos were good and as I recall included in the text was a fair amount of historical information. If you ever have a chance, check the museum out. It is layed out very well and has a stunning collection--the folks there were a treat, too! - 204.33.153.2 - Friday, September 18, 1998 at 18:20:38 (EDT)
Pete: Ruby -- Check out the books here. Click on books on the home page and have a ball. Also check out Bead University from E-Book 1. Milo -- I was ahead of you and forgot. Victoria BS was already posted. = Peace - acc-30.northnet.org - Thursday, September 17, 1998 at 21:01:29 (EDT)
Ruby: Hi -- can anyone tell me if the Picard's series "Beads of the West African Trade" is really, truly, a superior informative resource? Do they tell you "names" of beads, where they originated, age, composition, etc? I have Dubin's "History..." and Fisher's "Adorned," and i am just looking for more detailed (esp. scholarly) information. - d35.velocity.net - Thursday, September 17, 1998 at 10:49:20 (EDT)

Milo: The info I have is: The Bead Society of Victoria, Inc. Membership Secretary Judity Martin P.O. Box 382, Abbotsford. Victoria. Australia Their meetings are held at 7.30pm on the third Wednesday in the month at the North Melbourne Library Membership is $25 (A) - 203.4.79.11 - Wednesday, September 16, 1998 at 02:06:46 (EDT)
Pete: Nancy -- I'll look it up. Check back tomorrow. Joey - Welcome. Milo -- Please send info on the bead society so that I can post it. Include a contact name and phone number or email address. Thanks. I got a grant in 1985 to experimentally work with glass beads for a summer. There was nothing in print about lampworking then, either. There just wasn't the interest or it was kept secret. The secret is out now. = Peace - acc-3.northnet.org - Tuesday, September 15, 1998 at 22:19:45 (EDT)
Milo: Joey,
In the past I have used the same sealant that I used on things like gleaning metal and silver jewellery (to stop it tarnishing) here in Australia it is called "Incralac" and is made by a company called Wattle Products. It gave a shiny finish an dries very quickly. I seem to remember that I may have recooked some of these pieces later and the finish changed to matt. - 203.4.79.11 - Tuesday, September 15, 1998 at 20:08:44 (EDT)
Milo: Thanks Pete, I have not checked my home computer for your info yet, too busy chasing bead related thingies on the one at work. Have located a bead society locally and its their meeting tonight. Have also located a glass company in another state that has put me onto someone who has supplies and classes in my state but a two day class is something like $250 will supplies included, am hanging out for their brochure. You guys have at least set me on the right train of thought. Dragged out my glass books from 15 years back and found that lampwork was no even mentioned, plenty of leadlight, slumping and fusing etc in a kiln but no mention of lampwork - this is not a recent process so why is there such a lack of info on it - seems as if it would be much easier than firing up the kiln and going through the annealing process. - 203.4.79.11 - Tuesday, September 15, 1998 at 20:04:18 (EDT)
Joey Binard: I work in polymer clay and have recently started experimenting with interference powders. Does anyone out there know of a glaze or sealant that works well with these? I've been told the powders react over time badly with the usual glazes, i.e., Fimo and Sculpy. Thanks. - binard.ncjfcj.unr.edu - Tuesday, September 15, 1998 at 14:56:25 (EDT)
Nancy: I would appreciate recommendations on what is the best & safest way to clean old brass & silver. Thanks - 207-172-150-15.s15.as8.anp.erols.com - Tuesday, September 15, 1998 at 10:17:05 (EDT)
Pete: For those interested in books on glassworking and glass beadmaking (I've emailed Milo) -- I have hunted some down. Click on Books on the home page, Books On-line/Beadmaking and Jewelry Making. = Peace - acc-33.northnet.org - Monday, September 14, 1998 at 20:10:12 (EDT)
Milo: I am beginning to think that there is not a lampworker in Australia apart from those kitch ducks, drakes and curley glass blowers that used to appear from time to time in the shopping centres - perhaps they all died. I have been onto all the education centres out here asking if they do short courses but after ten universities I am stumped - I could end up teaching this if I am not careful because nobody seems to know anything about it out here. The best source of supplies I have come up with was on the net - Hacker Glass at least lists or shows supplies but it looks like I will have to wait for the library to do its stuff. Put me onto the other Aussies and we could club together and bring the equipment out from the US.
- 203.4.79.11 - Sunday, September 13, 1998 at 23:02:59 (EDT)
Pete: Dear Milo, Yes, I'm going to have to get on Amazon.com for that. Glass colors are almost infinite. You are one of several people from Australia who are looking for glass, tools, etc. Maybe youshould open a side business? = Peace
- acc-34.northnet.org - Sunday, September 13, 1998 at 21:24:20 (EDT)
Milo: Monday again and thanks for the welcome. Have ordered a book through local library which will take a week to come from another area, can you believe 1 book among five municipalities, plenty of stained glass though. Fire Mountain do not have any supplies listed in their catalog, and Amazon are sadly lacking in the subject area too. I guess there must be a supplier of glass canes somewher out here but we have 18mil people in Australia compared to something like 240mil in the US and it is supply on demand. So spent the weekend putting beads in plastic bags and colour coding into boxes. I never realised how many I had until you start running out of plastic bags - why is it there are less bags than a 100 in a pack these days I say to my DH for I could not have that many different ones!!. - 203.4.79.11 - Sunday, September 13, 1998 at 18:03:03 (EDT)

Lissa: Milo: The Bead Museum has a site at http://www.ariz.com/beads/ . I'm in the Phoenix, AZ area, and have visited the museum in person as they are only a couple of hours away. Beads and Adornables is near me as well, and they have classes on glass beadmaking that I am dying to try when I get the money... Like I said, I have seen the process a couple of times, but haven't tried it...yet. You can reach me at ericmc@primenet.com . Hey Pete, do you stock glass beadmaking books through this site? I didn't see any listed in a quick scan of your bookstore. - ip-21-207.phx.primenet.com - Friday, September 11, 1998 at 00:48:03 (EDT)

Milo: Thanks Lissa, I have seen reference to the Bead Museum Store but cannot find how to get in touch. Also hear that a Kate Fowle has a book out that they stock. Have most of the tools from years ago but will have to dust off the rust, how would a charcoal bed as used to make solid silver beads go for glass? I have the Fire Mountain catalog - it takes some getting through and was going to make up an order just to see but their beads seem rather expensive in comparison to others that I purchased when in the US last year. Actually today might be good as I hear the US$ is down. Let me know your e-mail addy and where you are located as you seem to know a few of the answers I want - this computer is at work and I have a lag time before getting answers especially as it is 10.30am Friday here. - 203.4.79.11 - Thursday, September 10, 1998 at 20:31:51 (EDT)

Lissa: Milo: I haven't tried it yet, but there are links to site with info at http://beadwork.miningco.com/ under 'making beads'. Also, I have seen a book by Cindy Jenkins called 'You Can Make Glass Beads!' in the Fire Mountain catalog. I know they have a web page as well. That book as well as once called 'Lampworked Beads' by Alice Foster Zimmerman is in the Rings & Things catalog also. Their web site is http://www.Rings-Things.com . I've seen videos as well, at the Bead Museum in Prescott, AZ. From what I've seen you'll need the torch, safety glasses, fireproof working surface, shaping tools, mandrels and release compound, glass rods, and something to anneal the finished beads. I have a friend who uses a crock pot of vermiculite until she can get to her kiln. I've seen a catalog that had the basic set-up, but I can't recall which one it was, unfortunately.

Pete: Dear Varner, I can't say anything about clay beads without knowing more about them. The scarabs were made from steatite (soapstone), There are a lot of fakes out there. Go to E-book 2/Amulets/Egyptian amulets. Maybe you'll see the other beads as well. + Pete - acc-23.northnet.org - Wednesday, September 09, 1998 at 20:20:54 (EDT)

Lissa: To whoever was asking about the flower pattern: The latest copy of Bead and Button magazine had directions for the daisy chain that is most commonly used for chokers. They updated the look with...um...garnets and pearls I think it was, but the directions would be the same to use with seed beads. Check out your local bead store, or large book store. I usually get mine at Border's Book store. - ip-22-025.phx.primenet.com - Tuesday, September 08, 1998 at 11:09:17 (EDT)
