<td width="51%" height="440"> Beads are made by melting the glass rods a little at a time and winding them onto steel rods called mandrels. These rods can be different thicknesses and this is what determines how big the hole in the bead will be. In order to keep the glass from sticking to the rods, they are dipped in a thick liquid ahead of time which is allowed to dry. <p> </p></td> <td width="1%"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="beadsaremade.html">Close </a></td> <td> </td> </tr>
