Here is a mini #DIY sander for your flex shaft from @ebj.escoladejoalheria - “Cut your sandpaper into a triangle and then insert the thin end into a large needle. Before using it on your piece, rotate the needle with the sandpaper between your fingers so that it gets stuck in the needle!” This miniature split mandrel is adorable and such an awesome idea for getting into tiny details 🤯🙌 Thank you for taking the time to share with us! I bet an embroidery needle would work well! #metalsmithsocietytip #makingjewelry #jewelrymakingclasses #jewelrymakingtools
