A tip from @seattlefindings: notch the spot where an ear post sits using a drill bit in a pin vise for a stronger, straighter joint.

Thanks for sharing this helpful tip for soldering earring posts @seattlefindings - “When soldering an ear post, make sure to make a notch where your post will sit. It makes a stronger and straighter joint. We like doing this by hand, with a drill bit held by a pin vise.” #metalsmithsociety
