Love this #benchtip for sawing out a design from @arrowsandstone - “When trying to get an even cutout around a design use a sharpie to draw around the design line I did with this fern. Use your saw cutting the inner or outer line. Make sure you keep the sharpie straight up and down when tracing so you get an even line. 😉” #metalsmithsociety #metalsmith #jewelryfabrication #fabricationnotcast #benchjeweler #jewelerysawing #sawingtips #jewelryfabrication #jewelryfabricationtechniques #thinklikeastudent #spreadknowledge #jewelrytips #sawingtips
