Sayco intstruments

They make medical supplies. Part of my uni booklist was a dissection kit. Turns out it's made by these guys.

For ages I've been wanting really fine pliers/tweezers for beading purposes. They are hard to find and expensive.

Then I rediscover my dissection kit. The fine, precision instruments for dissecting are really damn useful when doing fiddly beading stuff.

Maybe I'll get back into this beading buisness after all. :) My main problem is that I have a shitload of beads and findings, and most of it is cheap shit, which results in crappy jewellery. Oh well, it's good practice.

I'm currently trying to bead on ribbon - how do I get the beads to stay in their places and not slide around?

a dot of glue on the ribbon? or a really tight knot that can slide into the hole with some help and then anchor the bead in place?
