Hello Ron,

    FWIW, the beading tool in Theophilus is on p.89-90 of the Dover
    addition. Although it will only form one full bead at a time it looks
    like a more forgiving version of the tool in Oppi's book. 

    Do you have a page number for the beading tool in Maryon?  I thought
    there was one in there too but I've looked twice now and can't find
    it.  This has always been one of my favourite books on the old-school
    ways of doing things ("Metalwork and Enamelling" by Herbert Maryon,
    Dover, ISBN 0-486-22702-2).
