For daisy chains, I string a "clam" end tip before (to the inside of) the
lasp bead, tie a knot around the last bead (sometime glue it), and close the
"clam" around the last bead and the knot. These clams are like two halves
of a ball/bead, with a hole in the "hinge" in between, and with a hook on
the end to close around a clasp.
