When you want to make perfect, large balls that are flat on the bottom - take your melted ball and place it inside your dapping block and hammer! If there is a little edge you can file it off! Thank you @lm6d for sending this awesome technique! 🙏🏻😘💕 #metalsmithsociety #jewelryfabrication #dappingblock #jewelrytipoftheday #silversmith #ladysmith
