How to add a necklace end to nylon thread

[@elladuffy6528]

Hi, does this work with one piece of thread ie beaded necklace ?

Hello, Thank you for the question. Yes it will work just as well with one thread as it will with 2 or even more threads, depending on how many threads you can get through the hole in the hinge. The majority of necklaces made in our shop are single stranded necklaces and using these necklaces ends. I hope this helps.

What type of pliers are you using please ?

Hello! We use a pair of chain nose pliers for holding, positioning and crimping the crimp bead/crimp tube. I hope that helps! Many thanks Robin

Hello, thank you for posting this video this is exactly what I've been looking into for my necklace making! May I ask how secure the crimp beads are in the clasp when using nylon thread? I've seen online that it's not recommended, and I don't want to sell necklaces that have a risk of slipping though if this makes sense? Thank you!!

Crimp tubes are better than crimp beads for this. It comes with practice and experience, squashing hard enough to grip securely, but not so hard that the thread is damaged. Some people add a little glue, but I don't usually do that (for risk of getting glue everywhere). I hope that's helpful.
