"Hi, I am Jason. Today I am shooting on behalf of Expert Village.com. I have the bit in the Dremel and I am ready to clean the edges on each of the beads. There are two settings on the Dremel, low and high. For this soft plastic, rubbery material, we will need to use the low setting. A quick all over is all we are going to do. Basically, go over the edges so that it is smooth on both sides. We can color the end black so you will never see the white here. Turn on low. All I have done is set the bit right on the plastic. I am not applying pressure and I am not trying to shape anything. I am going across making smooth, fluid motions. You can see that it is really smooth compared to this one which is not. Now we are going to this one. Same thing with this, both sides are now smooth and they will look a lot better once we put color on them."
