Yes. The beads on the pin are 3/32" tall. In a 4-turn pastry, there are 81 layers (an 8-turn is something like 6500!) so even a little extra length should count up.

Yes. The beads on the pin are 3/32" tall. In a 4-turn pastry, there are 3 + 6 +12 + 24 = 45 layers (an 8-turn is something like 800!) so even a little extra length should count up.
