I'd like to purchase these for a Girls on the Run project but would need to remove one of the ends to put the charms on... can I do this with this?

The ends they used are those metal spirals - if you want to take them off, you could either use large/strong scissors to cut the cord right before it, or use pliers to pull it open, since it's basically held down by one strong metal wire. :)

I would think u could use a hack saw to remove them. That's what I used to cut an end piece off

No the holes are too small but you could get little metal rings to attach the charms to the bracelet with

They use a two part screw on. One is left hand thread the other is right hand thread. Most of the negatives about the ends falling off are from people not realizing one is left hand thread.

I gave them away last year, and plan to this year as well. It was simple I put a connector on one end and then left them straight and unbroken in a large vase so they could break them and make the bracelet when they wanted. worked great! Same price as candy but something a little different. Plus after Halloween there is not gobbs of left over candy that we really don't need.

I don't believe so. When you get them all laced up the way you want, there is excess you can cut off to your liking. Where you cut it, there's a cover for the ends that clip together. I am going to order a pair for my nephew.

I have not tried what you are describing but, as far as I can tell, you can do everything with the Ricks loom that you can with a regular loom. The one thing I have noticed is that when you take the piece off the loom the ends are very week and will quickly lose their shape. However, I have been able to prevent this by reinforcing the ends by weaving back and forth a few times on the last five or six rows on each end before I take the piece off the loom. This stabilizes the ends. All in all, I feel this slight problem is greatly outweighed by the elimination of the many threads that have to be woven in once a piece is taken off a regular loom. I have stopped using my other looms now that I have the Ricks. Once you follow the directions (and they are easy), it really work likes a regular loom and, in my opinion, you would be able to weave with different size beads.

Yes, you can just hang the clip on earrings onto the circular bars--using the clip sides as the hangers. I was able to put a whole pair of the pierced/hook earrings into one hole; and this freed up more space for the clip-ons. You may also be interested in the plastic covers for cushioning the backs of the clip-on earrings. I just ordered some more through Amazon for my clips.

You can't simply pry them out. The medallions go through the grip and are swedged on the back side. You would need to drill them from the back side. I have thought of doing this and putting old 3 cent coins in my grips, they would be about the right size and look better.

They are plastic so I'm sure you can. They come with a hole through the thicker end already.

You can unscrew the ends and remove the horizontal bars. The curved pieces that come out, where you screw the bars into, are welded and can't be removed.

Yes. You will have to open one end of the hook with pliers or the like. But you should be able to get them off with minimal effort.

I would say, you ABSOLUTELY should be able to... take them off with no mess. The one I purchased has a very light adhesive. Not too "tacky"... or gummy of a glue. Almost like a command hook, strip. (If you're familiar with those) I hope this helps. :)

I would have to answer no. The way that they are constructed would ruin the fabric and there is a metal bar at the bottom which is not removeable.

I'm sure you could do this, but they are sharp on the ends (pointed) so it would be a lot of work to shorten them and leave a pointed end.

Definitely! The lace ends come as a separate piece, so you trim the laces first, then clip the end pieces on.

I usually slide mine off to the side to remove them. Try putting strips of fabric under each clamp. They'll help with removing clamps, and they'll improve the clamp's grip on the fabric when you pull it taut. Tutorial: http://curiosities808.wordpress.com/2008/06/20/embroidery-tools-qsnaps-tutorial/
