cheeler Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 You might try putting a drop on the back of the bead and letting it flow down the bead and in. Quote

Conor Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 I put a drop on the bead and pull it in with the whip. Or, I wet a bit of the thread just before whipping. Quote
