But sometimes that&#8217;s not the best idea.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">For example when I first started using my AMACO brand tri-bead roller, I didn&#8217;t realize how important it was to use properly measured amounts of clay. This caused all sorts of problems for me, mostly to do with poorly formed bead shapes that were never consistent in size.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">So the biggest tip I can give you with any kind of bead rolling tool, is to listen to the manufacturers advice when it comes to pre-measuring your clay pieces. You&#8217;ll be glad you did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/images\/blog\/cindy-sig.jpg\" alt=\"Cindy Lietz Signature\"
