PLASTIC BEAD SPINNER

The spinning wheel is a used with a needle with a J-hook at the end. The Spin & String is easy and fun to use. Before you begin, make sure you are working on a level surface. Measure you thread to be 10 inches longer than the length of the beads that you need. To use, thread your needle and knot the end, or leave it attached to the spool of thread. To avoid getting your thread tangled, tuck the short end between plies of the longer end. Pour seed beads into the cup, filling about halfway. Rotate the center spindle counterclockwise with one hand, not too fast or your beads may fly out. With your other hand, place the curved end horizontally into the beads near (but not touching) the outer wall of the right side of the cup. The beads will load onto the needle very rapidly. Once you have a couple of inches of beads on the needle, carefully life up the curved end and then push the beads down onto the thread. Repeat the whole process of spinning and string until you’ve reached the desired length of beads. An excellent time saver! TIP: If you have difficulty, try experimenting with different needle positions and spinning directions to find a combination that is most comfortable and effective for you. For this tool to be effective, there is a functional sharp edge. Please use with caution. Not recommended for children under 15 years old.
