Today I made this long bead. At the festivals and EDM shows, people have bracelets. This bead is designed for lazy people (see me) to build a beaded cuff in little time. Generally the cuffs take a really long time to finish. It’s not for the faint of heart. These long beads make it so that a cuff-sized bracelet is easier to make.

I practiced using creating a macro to build the bead from the bottom. I also learned how to make a polar/radial array in Blender. The radial array wasn’t used to make the bead. However, it’s something I expect will come in handy (see ball bearings)
