What type of bead to use?
You might try acrylic beads... are you making toys or art objects? If toys,
the acrylic beads would be tougher than glass.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Wooden beads will probably be quite tough by comparison with some
brittle types of glass beads. I have this idea that the color and
sparkle of faceted glass or crystal beads would add a lot to the
visual effect. Whether there are some
of these types of beads that are particularly tough, I've yet to
learn.
Kind regards,
