Tools for bead caps
I've been curious about his for a while. What tool (s) are required for making your own bead caps? Does this tool come with something to punch holes in the caps or is that separate? On a slightly related note, maybe I should just add PMC clay tomy repertoire.
Thanks
Duane

I get the capping tools from Retro... Much much much better than having to find the center of your disc to punch then dome! This tool punch the center and dome the cap in one step.

Read reviews of dapping sets made in India. Instead bought a quality set from www.ottofrei.com . They are more costly, but quality tools.
