We are interested on any tool to make oxblood coral beads (2,5 mm and
3 mm diameter). In particular we need to know if your company can sell
a drilling machine able to drill the ball from the two opposite side of
the sphere at the same time.

Please if possible send your catalog to the following address:

I have a small amount of oxblood Coral ( 5 - 6 oz. of larger raw
coral and some small branches of polished coral.

Is this material as toxic as shell to work ?

Are there any techniques for driling small branches (1/4 to 3/4 ") ?

Thamk You in advance.
