#sponsored For this week I’m doing #tooltalktuesday on Monday 💃 (with an awesome giveaway happening tomorrow so stay tuned!) I'm showing off a specialty tool for sharpening your dull beading tools quickly and effectively - The DiamondPA Sharpening Device from @sharpeningdevice - This patented device works in a simple, innovative way: you place your dull beading tool into you flexshaft, insert the beading tool into the device and then rotate at 50-200 rpm. The sharpener is made of stainless steel, and its sharpening element of the whole diamond and it is suitable for all sizes of beads from No. 0 to No. 20. A single diamond element can sharpen 450 beading tools making it very economical at a cost of only $31! You do have to be mindful that sharpening can increase the edge of the beading tool but you can narrow it down again by gently rotating on a flat surface with 1000 grit abrasive paper - that gives the tool a crisp edge again! As someone who is newer to bead setting and using beading tools for texture my tools were getting dull and I didn't have the knowledge or skill to sharpen on my own. This tool makes it super easy! Currently you can purchase it directly from the designer @sharpeningdevice from www.DiamondPA.ru for $159 I love seeing small businesses creating tools to help make our lives easier.
