    Hi..ive been looking into beading wires recently and have found out that 7 strands kinks very easily and is not easy to straighten out..i know that higher strand is costlier but i have went for the 49 stranda as i dont want any bends or kinks..as they say you get what you payfor.

    You can use any flush cutters for jewelry but I like the xuron with retaining clip

    Hi, great question. You would need a solid wire for something like that. The stranded wire will stay flexible.
