Before I invest, how easy is this one to use - one of the harder ones, one of the easier? I like the shape but don't want to buy something I'll struggle with if it's too faffy. Any thoughts? Thx.

I find it reasonably easy - make bead - press - put blobs on to define points - press. Done. :)

I use Maria Louisa's and find it fine - you're always going to have to compromise a little on getting the sharpest finish or getting rid of chill marks - but the shape is lovely to play with especially, if like you, you make your own jewellery. I'd go for it!

I have found it easy to use also, it makes nice beads.
