If anyone has a hard time finding the center of a circle 🙋♀️ this tool for #tooltalktuesday will be a game changer. It is simply, a center finder. You can slide your circles, squares, hexagons etc. into the center finder and you use your scribe to mark it from at least two directions. For me this $7 tool saves me so much time and aggravation. It can also be used with very small pieces but for those I use a scrap piece of metal to help hold it in place (if you slide through my photos you’ll see I used it on a very small gold circle) this would also be PERFECT for wax work! This is a fairly common tool, I know Otto Frei sells them and I’ll also link one in my TOOLS highlight if you are interested 💃🏼 #jewelrytools #jewelrymakingtools #metalsmithsociety
