I love the video and have tried to find the rivets. You offer quite a few on your site but it is very confusing to me what size to buy to make the bracelet in this video. You said 1.5mm rivet. But 1.5 is not the only measurement on the package. Can you tell me exactly what to get?

[@beaducation]

1.5mm is the thickness of the rivets. The other measurement listed is usually the length. Some of the rivets are listed in inches. So 1/16" thickness is a bit over 1.5mm which is listed in the details of the product page. For example the nail head rivets in sterling are 1.3mm. So you can use a 1.5mm hole punch.

My nylon pliers seem to be cracking at the head. Do they just get old/dried out?

The Nylon Jaw pliers do wear out over time, but you can buy replacements! www.beaducation.com/search?qry=nylon+jaw

I was trying to practice on aluminum. It is very flimsy and doesn't really hold it's shape. Is this true for the sterling you use in this video? I just wanted to practice on something before I dove into the sterling. Just not happy with the stability of the bracelet.

Hi Jenn, Aluminum is very soft and easy to stamp on. However, you might be using some that is too thin. The aluminum we sell is at least 18 gauge in thickness which is great for stamping. Should be thick in order to hold up because of the softness. www.beaducation.com/pc/188-metal-stamping-blanks?utf8=%E2%9C%93&qry=&choices%5B17%5D=on&sort_order=Most+Popular

When you’re measuring for a bangle, aren’t you supposed to make a fist because the circumference of our fist gets a little bigger?
