I've used it for a couple of years now and it's a game changer.

@GrammaSheShe 11 месяцев назад

I bought one of these when they first came out, and the patent was still pending. They only had one size, but that was OK. I struggled to make a decent loop however because it seemed like they would never fully close. Now I understand why that happens so I use it much more often. It doesn’t close fully so that you can slide a jump ring in there and then you close it because you’re going to need a jump ring for anything you’re going to connect it to.

Omg thank you so so much for this tutorial! You really helped me figure out how to use the looper and now I’m a pro at it! Lol☺️❤️

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

You're welcome! I'm so glad it helped!

@susanshapiro1893 2 года назад

I've owned the looper for a couple of years and what a lifesaver. I use it for headpins, eyepins, and wire.There r 3 sizes of loopers and I have 2.

@YarnNecklaces 2 года назад

That's great! So you know how awesome it is!

Yes she loves helping anyway she can with my business whenever we see each other. I'm sure it also has something do with me paying her 😆!

Thank you for the tutorial and especially on making the connectors.

@jamieleman5723 3 месяца назад

Thanks so much for your video on using this tool to make single loops and connectors. I searched for awhile to find a video on making connectors and yours is so easy to follow and very clear. Thanks for the tip on directing the wire clippings to the container as well. I have this tool but haven't used it much up to this point but now I can use it with confidence.

@harpertallman1548 6 месяцев назад

I just got one of these today, and even though I'm lining the bead up to that ridge, the loops are still coming out too long/too far away from the bead!

@sunaylor 3 месяца назад

I hate making loops, but I bought this tool ages ago and forgot all about till now, I now have to go and find it. I'm blaming dementia, but in truth its cos I have too much stuff.

@cherachapin3826 2 года назад

I have never seen this before. Definately need to look into getting one. I hate using all 3 tools for my head pins. If I can use one tool with just a regular wire that would be a huge time saver

@YarnNecklaces 2 года назад

Yes I think you will really like it!

@kaptnkoi4269 2 года назад

I was a bit confused and now I'm going to give it another go, thank you!! ^^ also quick question you say you use 20 gauge wire, what hardness do you buy? because I see a lot that say "dead soft" etc and I don't know what hardness I'm supposed to get. Thank you for your help!

@YarnNecklaces 2 года назад

I'm really wasn't sure which is best. I know dead soft may be ok for making loops for earrings but you may want half hard for making necklace or bracelet links. I found an article that should help answer your questions: www.gempacked.com/blog/wire-wrapping-101-should-i-use-soft-half-hard-or-hard-wire/

@PamelaBrandonChromeFoto 7 месяцев назад

I love the tool,but it’s just to wide to grip with your hands, I just wish it wasn’t so wide trying to get your hands around it, I have to squeeze the looper tool just a little to get my hands around it, so if you have small hands this will be frustrating,but it works. Getting the bead at the right spot was a learning curve,but once you practice a few times it works great.

@LynnTrimble-x3i 11 месяцев назад

After you have made your beads from the looper, how do you attach them to make bracelets or necklaces

@YarnNecklaces 11 месяцев назад

You can open them up like you would with a jump ring with 2 pliers and then attach, then close it together. If your not sure how to open a jump ring with pliers, you can search on RU-vid. It's easier to show you than explain in words.

@andrescarbajalgamez1011 Год назад

where can i buy it online ??

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

Its on amazon: amzn.to/34mxTpQ

@genafuscaldo1121 Год назад

2.5mm is the best

@Jen-CelticWarrior 19 дней назад

Is that the one that matches most of the commercial eye pins?

@santospedrosa1706 Год назад

Hello, what thickness of wire do you use in this 1.5mm?

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

You can use more than one size. Somewhere around 18-22 gauge. It depends on the hardness of the metal you are using and how sturdy do you need the loops. For example, stainless steel will be more sturdy than copper so u will need a thicker wire for copper. And loops for a bracelet (that might get banged up a lot) will need to be more sturdy than loops for earrings.

@santospedrosa1706 Год назад

Thankful

@michellewolfe2032 Год назад

I want one. How do you know what size to buy?

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

Sure, you can use the link in my description or this one here: amzn.to/34mxTpQ I purchased the 1.5mm loop. It makes a small loop for jewelry making. There are also other 1 step loopers that will make larger loops such as 2.25 or 3mm. It just depends on how big you want the loops.

@Jen-CelticWarrior 19 дней назад

@@YarnNecklaces, what size are the commercial pre made eye pins that I buy in packs at, say, Walmart or a craft store? Thanks!

@mariananorman5253 Год назад

Im new to this, what size looper to use on 8mm and 4mm beads. Thanks

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

It just depends what size you want the loops to be. I'm using the 1.5mm and I feel like those loops are a good size for those beads. 1.5mm is the diameter of the loop, so the 2.5 Looper will have a diameter of 2.5mm.

@ruthyzeno4842 Год назад

I was using it all wrong. Thank you. Lol

How do you connect the "connectors"

You can use jewelry tools. I don't have a video on how to connect the loops but I'm sure you can find something on RU-vid.

Morning ma'am l like yr loops but really would like to ask u if l can't ask can't others this by u can't find it in south Africa if u can't sent me the address were can't other it pls

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

I'm sorry, I purchased mine through Amazon. I don't know a place that sells it that ships to South Africa. My best suggestion is to Google "beadsmith 1 step looper" and see if you can find anyone selling it that ships to your country.

@carrieeldridge966 9 месяцев назад

i cant get t to work

@dabeadz Год назад

Makes very sloppy loops with too much wire showing. Loops do not close correctly. Extra work needed.

@YarnNecklaces Год назад

Thank you for commenting. It takes some practice. I understand, if I need the loop to be very close to the bead then sometimes I have to do a little extra work.

@carollogan6772 Год назад

@@YarnNecklaces What is the extra work you do to get the loop close to the bead? No matter what I try, nothing works

@@carollogan6772 sometimes you will need to use your jewelry pliers to get it all the way closed or lined up correctly.
