Now I just need a cheap source for "practice pearls" to test out if I've really lost my marbles.
I test drill with shell bead nuclei.

Is there a particular source? This will be my first time drilling pearls, and I'd much prefer to practice on inexpensive pearls/nuclei!I test drill with shell bead nuclei.
OK, so now I have officially gone off the deep end, eating my words....I bought the Japanese pearl drill recommended by Jacques in the post above. Now I just need a cheap source for "practice pearls" to test out if I've really lost my marbles. BTW, Yotsuba sells a double pearl drill, the kind that can drill both ends at one time!
Exactly my worry! I will try Dave's wonderful suggestion...now to search for a good (and inexpensive) source!
enbcfsobe, I can justify any purchase...whether or not that justification makes any sense is the hurdle.
