Here is a refining tip from @jen_surine - “This tip is one I picked up from @metalsmithsociety a while back, but it is such a great one, I had to share.
Running my tumbler water through a coffee filter catches particles of silver and gold. It literally prevents me from pouring money down the drain. Before I started doing this I honestly had no idea how much gold and silver the coffee filter would be collecting!
Once the filter gets gunked up I throw it in a bag that I send to my precious metals refiner, along with dust from my buffing machine, floor sweeps, and dirty rags I I use around the studio.
It all turns into money again.
Did you see all that glittery gold and silver caught in the filter? 🙌” thanks for letting me share Jen! So helpful to see! 😃 #refininggold #refiningsilver #recycledmetals #jewelrymaking
