About
After putting in the effort to create perfectly round beads or beautifully shaped pendant bails, the last thing you want is a flat spot ruining your work during drying. The Bead and Bail Drying Rack keeps your pieces suspended in the air so they dry evenly on all sides - preserving their shape and eliminating the need for extra refinishing. When pieces are laid flat, one side compresses and distorts. Hanging them allows them to dry exactly as you formed them. In this video, Pam demonstrates how to create a bail using her Deep Etch Template, then shows how the Drying Rack keeps it perfectly supported while it dries. She also walks through attaching eyelets and reinforcing the bail with syringe for added strength.
