    Thanks Lisa, I will try your method of stringing. Sounds very
    efficient and certainly a great time saver. One problem that has been
    slowing me down is that some of the pearls that I recently purchased
    have holes that are so small that I spend a lot of time reaming them
    out. Even those thin hairlike flexible needles won't go through them.
    The pearls were sold by the gram, and it is my guess that by making
    tiny holes, they weigh more, hence more profit for the distributor.
