Sterling silver crimp beads

[k3v1n]

GG family,

I want to order some sterling silver crimp beads and was wondering what size I should get.

So anyone who has used them please tell me your opinions.

All advice on method and size will be greatly appreiciated.

I want these for my Odysseus when it arrives, I think crimping look neater.

What do you guys and gals think ?

Sterling Silver Micro Tube Crimps 1x1mm, they are the smallest.

My experience is they weren't worth the trouble. I use half hard silver nr wire and its very easy to just twist it together. I found the beads didn't hold well

Same here.....

I either twist or solder; both are stronger and easier
