if you are polishing a piece with a chain and want to prevent the chain from accidentally getting wrapped around the flexshaft or sucked into the polishing machine 😵 use this tip from @deehebarddesigns - “If you need to polish something that has a chain, drop the chain into a zip lock back and hold onto it as you polish. Danger averted.” Love this idea! Always proceed with CAUTION when polishing a piece connected to a chain! Wear safety goggles and a mask every time you polish anything! Be safe! 🙏🏻❤️ #metalsmithsociety #jewelrypolishing #jewelrytipoftheday
