I read the prior post and agree that with "core formed" objects the core is removed....but the word core when used outside the context "core formed" does not implied anything has to be removed. Core as is commonly used in our language is considered the the center or innermost or base of an object or idea. When referring to the "red core" I think most readers understood this to mean the first layer starting from the inside out and I don't believe anyone would mistake my use of the word to imply the chevron was built on a "core" that had been removed. The meaning of "core" would be determined in the context in which it is used more so than a predefined use as it relates to one facet of bead making. This does not mean we have to re-write history books or re-think our already established methods of manufacture, it is strictly a semantics thing. Words a typically used to convey ideas and as such may have many meanings for the same word, the term inside layer would probably be more precise in my description but I believe my use of "red core" was an accurate visual descriptor. I won't beat this to death here, just posing a different point of view. Thanks, Thomas
