For this week’s #tooltalktuesday I’m extremely excited to show off my new @whaleystudios sliding hammer 🔥 this was my first time setting with it (I probably should have waited a few weeks until I got really good at it so I could impress you all 😂) However, I did find it very easy to use. Basically this amazing tool allows you to stabilize as you hammer. You select a punch and screw it into place, then it slides back and forth inside the hammer. I got a wide variety of punches and I hope to experiment more and show off some other things the hammer can do. For setting it allowed me to strike with the right amount of force but remain in control 😍 My close up videos are sped up, but meant to show how awesome this tool works to get my bezel closed. Afterward I protected my stone with painters tape and filed it, down. I’ll likely follow up with a silicone wheel. This amazing hammer is available at Otto Frei (ottofrei.com) and they have offered 5% off your entire order (of this hammer, or anything else you fancy) to our community 💕 with code MMS719 if you set a lot of cabochons you might need this one 😏 let me know what you think!💸 #sponsored #metalsmithsociety #ottofrei #whaleystudios #benchjeweler #jewelrytools
