I know the masters frown and say use the tools you have. I am 86 and spent my life always looking for easier ways to do things. The beading tools are faster and the beads look better than the old way. Keep up the good work Jimmie and continue to make my life easier so I can turn forever.

I've never tried to bead any of my turnings in the past. I wanted to try the "Basket Weave Illusion ". After watching many YouTube videos this product appeared to be the best one on the market. After using it I was hooked. It's very easy to use. I did not order a handle but I think I'll be getting one soon. Highly recommend.

While the tools are excellent, it's the service and the instructional videos that set them apart from other companies. I just can't rate them higher.

I have a number of quality turning tools. These beading tools are the best tools in my collection. They arrived extremely sharp. Also, the wrapped handle is extremely comfortable and gives excellent control. I will be a D-Way customer from now on.

These tools give great special effects on turnings. And they stay sharp forever! I suggest you also get the diamond tool; it cleans up any imperfections you might have with the beading tools.

Just picked up the last two to complete the set. All are well balanced in the 8” handle, easy to use and sharpen, cut very clean and are a joy to use. They are the best beading tools available. Buy them, you won’t be disappointed.

I went to a club demo of basket illusion and wanted to try just beading a small bowl. I ordered the tools and they were here in no time. Great service. I also tried to bead some jewelry and the tools worked very well. After I watched your videos the tools worked even better! Thank you for a great tool and great service.

I've got 3 sizes of these beading tools and they add a nice quick finishing detail to most any turning. The usual D-Way expert finish is apparent on every tool. They work great!

I purchase these beading tools they work GREAT. Pretty much new to the world of turning. But I sure can add a lot of detail to my projects which everyone seems to like. These beading tools worked so well - I purchase the diamond tool. Wish I could effort all of them but only a few a a time. The M 42 steel is great. I did just purchase a 1/2 bowl gouge because it holds the edge.
