I went to the craft store today for some watercolor paper and popped into the jewelry isle. I don't usually get my things form the craftstore, but you never know- so I look. I saw a pair of beadalon bailing pliers that had a side with a diameter that I didn't have. Now I have 10mm down to like 2mm. I find bailing pliers useful for so many things. I don't use them a lot, but when I need them- only they will do. I don't like using round nose for much of anything. I'm not crazy about beadalon tools (usually made in Pakistan) but they don't need to be ergonomic or precision, so I'm good with these.

Next thing you know you will be going to Ace Hardware just to look at tools.

Haven't done that yet, as there have been too many other distractions. Thanks for the reminder.

I use my round nose pliers a lot but I only have one pair of bail making pliers. I don't usually buy tools from craft stores either.
