What is Tiger Tail and How to String Beads With It

I personally like working with beading cable which is also called "Tiger Tail" when creating necklaces, bracelets and some anklets.  Beading cable is nylon coated cable that has been twisted together from multiple strands and is readily available in 3, 7, 19, 21 and 49 strands and ranges from .3 to 1 mm thick. The more strands present in the finished cable, the stronger and more flexible the wire will be. I find that a .18 mm wire with 7 strands is usually best for my projects and use it extensively. Occasionally I will use a smaller diameter wire for very fine holed beads like some small pearls.
