Here is a technique for cleaning up excess solder around a tight space (like this bail) I used this amazing sanding stick from @excelblades.co it has a little rotating belt of sand paper (which is replaceable) I only have the 320 grit but I plan to get the 400 and 600. What I like is when I get a small lump of solder where I don’t want it, this works quickly but isn’t so strong that I’m easily scratching my piece ( which can sometimes happen with a mini file, or a flexshaft bit that rapidly removes material.) The tip of it is rounded so it gets right next to my solder seam. I love sanding sticks so I’m really happy to add this to my arsenal! Thank you to @excelblades.co for giving me the chance to try it! I’m a fan! Anyone else use them?!? What do you use to reach those right spots?!? Let us know! 😄🙌 #sponsored #metalsmithsociety #excelblades #sandingsticks
