What type of needles did you get in order to pick up the size 11 Czech beads. Some reviews say it doesn't work or does not work as we'll with Czech?

I used both the weird needles that it comes with to string them on thread, and the beading wire itself alone. Both work beautifully for size 11 beads. The more I use this spinner the more I love it!

Not sure but you can contact My Needle Store . Com and they will be able to match you with the correct needle.

Not necessarily. The one I received didn't have the needle. So I have to order one separately. :-S

Honestly I've never used one of these before in fact coming across it on Amazon is how I learned about it....so I figured I would buy the smallest size and go from there. Which would be my recommendation to anyone else new to them. I haven't used mine yet (I keep forgetting to pick up the correct alcohol to keep it clean in apparently regular rubbing alcohol will damage it) but the company was extremely wonderful by sending me info on use and care tips before I received mine and they have since sent me even more info which I appreciate so very much. But back to answering your question (sorry to get off track there) for a beginner I would say the smallest needle size and not a super costly one..

I typically use a Milliner needle when I needle turn applique and I don't have any issues with this size needle eye. I hope this helps!

I suggest that you use the CD that comes.with your serger and follow the instructions carefully. I had that problem at first and found that the CD was quite helpful. Remember to unthread the two needles before you retread the loopers.

I just got my Beadsmith 1-Step BIG Looper - it makes an eye 3mm inside diameter. Took me a few head pins before I got the feel of the device. I don't have full use of my left hand because of a stroke, but I was able use it. The other Beadsmith 1-Step Looper makes a loop approximately1.4 or 1.5 ID. I THINK I'm going to order that one also, I'm not sure which model this one is, so just make certain before you order. I think this one makes the small loops.

you need an NP1. Needles and cartridges might look similar but will not work. Save yourself the trouble and buy this: Crosley NP1 Replacement Needle

The needle part is a hard plastic. I had one break, the smallest one at the point where it connects. I was to hard with it because I forced it as I attached it to the cable. :( The cable part is a more flexible plastic. They are well made. They hold up very well. You just have to look at the direction you are twisting the needle when you attach it to the cable mount. If you force it the wrong way on the mount, you could damage the mount or needle tip. The variety is great, you can change needles easily while in a project. You can add cable to make it as long as you need it for any big project. The different size cables interchange to make a variety of lengths. They slide very easy on any kind of yarn and don't make your hands tired. They are very easy to use, and travel well. I've had nothing but pleasure using this set and SO happy I bought them! It's a great idea! I got this set mostly by the cost. I could not afford the metal ones but I am very happy with my purchase and do highly recommend them. I am a novice at knitting, so this was a less expensive way to get going without buying all the individual sets. I hope my answer helps with your question.

Any standard needles you use will work. If you don't own them, they are relatively inexpensive at places like Walmart, Michaels and Hobby Lobby.

update, looked up info and says that a different needle is needed for 78's because of groove size. got them but haven't tried them

The needles are hooked, but do not have the movable latch like a latch hook. They are itty-bitty. The beads are strung on your thread first and the thread is what is hooked. Takes practice! Hope this helps.

I have a single needle machine and it does not work. There is not enough room for the hoop to move freely for it to embroider patterns.

I could not use them. The needle is to big to fit into my cartridge. I may try to find a smaller needle....
