Default Cattwalk crunch tool

I am checking out tools at cattwalk.com and I came upon a "crunch tool". I wonder how one uses them? Obviously it's a type of glass smasher. I don't know how it creates the shapes it does? You start out with a regular round bead, heat it glowing orange and then smash or what? If anybody uses one of these I'd be grateful for the info.
Thank you
Michele

I'm so relieved that this is a duplicate thread. I didn't see my post and thought I had been erased.

Well if you wouldn't go around causing trouble, you wouldn't have to worry about that now, would you?
