Hi, Georgie, and welcome to the family!

I know exactly what you're describing:it's called a bead reamer. They are indeed very handy tools to have around. Enjoy!

Georgie welcome.

What your are describing is called a "bead reamer".

Hi everybody!

My name is Georgie and I'm very glad to have found your forum. I'll probably be asking millions of questions. I'm not new to beading, but I do have a very limited knowledge.

This question is about a tool I used to have what seems like forever ago. It was about six inches long, looked like a toothpick, but wider, made of metal and I could use it to widen bead holes. I was using a lot of painted glass pearls at the time that would sometimes have the holes painted over, and this file thingie would get right in there and widen the hole.

Am I making any sense? I just need to know what to search for, because "bead boring thingie" isn't working.

Thanks in advance!
