Small snap ring help.

[Fireshadow]

I was trying to get the blade on this one


Then the hook broke because I left the darn thing in the vice. Does anyone know where I can find some small snap ring pliers. The only ones I have right now are way to big for these size 0.

alot of ppl are moving to the jump rings because of this. I dont use split ring pliers, I use the blade to open the ring, then thread it on the blade and swivel at the same time.

Texas Tackle makes a pair of split-ring pliers that work well for me...

Jan's net craft once sold a split ring plier that has a very fine tooth and tapered point . Had them I bet 20 yrs . Still my most favorite small ring plier . Couldn't even count how many rings they have put on .

I use forceps and a gap gauge to open small split rings.

JoAnn's Fabrics has a great set that I purchased (nice and small used for making crafty jewelry). Go into there bead working area. Have a great selection of tools. Wife linked me up to there on-line group which have killer coupons. Bought mine with a 40% off one item.

I use SS butt rings (aka jump rings) to attach the blades to the swivel. Cheaper and they are easier (for me) to use. Making your own is feasible but they are cheap enough.....
