Here is a tip for when you need two pieces to be identical (or as close to identical as possible 😂) from @goudsmederijlamoon -
“I use quickglue /superglue to glue pieces together when I want them to all be the same size. It makes sanding, sawing, and filing easy. When your done just put your torch on it to fire the glue off.” Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I’ve used this tip before and it’s 👌 be sure to use ventilation when burning off, blow a fan, open a window use a respirator etc. (maybe not all those things but whatever combo you have in your workspace 😂) #metalsmithsociety #instasmith #silversmith #benchjeweler #secondelijm #goudsmeden #edelsmeden #tips #benchtips
