For this week's #tooltalktuesday I wanted to show how having a pair of Ultra Flush Cutters from our friends @lindstromtools helps you cut your bezel wires flush in seconds. It is so nice and flat I don't have to do any additional filing or sanding. In this video I'm using Ultra Flush RX 8142 and Flat-Nosed Pliers RX7490 both are available at @riogrande Once I know I have a good fit around my stone I like to give the bezel seam a gentle squeeze with the Flat-Nose Pliers so that the seam is perfect for soldering. Hope this was helpful and thank you to Lindström for sponsoring this post and supporting the page! #sponsored #pliers #jewelrytools #flushcutters #makingbezels #jewelrytutorial #makingjewelry
