Here is one technique for creating an indentation for forming from @ashleyweberdesigns - “Mark a little x or spot on your wood, put it in a vise and hit it a good couple times until you have the indentation that you want. I use a synclastic forming/raising hammer. The end grain of a pine 2x4 is super affordable and soft and great for making your own smaller stakes for forming!” Thank you so much for sharing this! A member of our community reached out about this and if they were curious I’m sure there are others out there that are curious as well :) #woodenformingblock #diyjewelrytools #diy
