bit of thick steel wire will do the same, have a look in the ceiling at work and just chop one of the ones holding the ceiling up - that works well! :twisted:

Big Tam, you run the tool in the channel opening it up and feeding the bead into it thru the diamond, dragging it is easier than pushing it, lube her up if too tight.
