Default Donuts

Does anyone know if there is a press or mold
for donut beads that would have about a 1/4 inch middle hole.
Or any size donut press or mold.
thank you
nancy

seller coonvallyb on Ebay makes a donut press. He will customize to any size you need.

Yes - these are wonderful presses! I have the size he has for sale now, a smaller one that he used to call the lifesaver press and a bigger one that he custom made for me - I think it is around 36mm outside diameter.

They are very well made and his custom work is very reasonable!

You won't be sorry, it is a very nice, well made press. There is a small learning curve, it isn't that hard to use. jeri

If you want to try out a fusing mold, I have purchased several from here.

She is really great to work with and the molds are easy to use.

I have a Coon valley press (not this kind). He was considering a web site but don't know if he ever took the leap.

I just checked out the eBay link above and bought his brass paddle. Just the thing I've been looking for to work raku and glass that needs a quick chill! Thanks for posting the link Shawnette!

Cheers
Kathy

I will do it soon.
