Love this method of holding down an item to be drilled shared by @ganoksin_project - "Small pieces need to be held securely while drilling to prevent them from spinning if the drill catches. Having sliced my fingers occasionally in my younger days, I avoid band-aids now by using flat-jaw pliers or a ring clamp. Pliers also save you if the piece gets hot. Put a little tape over plier jaws if needed to avoid scratches." Thank you for sharing! Also wear those safety glasses 😎🙌 #jewelrymakingtips #jewelrycommunity #makingjewelry
