Hey All,
So I am new to necklace making, I have been able to do all other aspects of it mostly quite well but I cannot get crimping right!
So clarify, I got some 2x3mm crimp tubes and I am using Beadalon 0.38 mm Diameter 9.2 m Reel 19 Strand Wire. I have a Microcrimper tool and what I think is the Medium(nornal) one and one that is slightly bigger, none of them are crimping it how I expected, I watched various tutorials, photos etc.
The crimps just seem to squish or warp and do not have that lovely middle fold. I have tried with wire, without wire, nothing seems to work.
It could be the tools not being very good, I am not sure, any ideas would be helpful or any advice.
Thank you so much and I hope all who reads this is doing well.
