My husband always says, "Right tool for the right job." Hence his love of collecting tools.
Well, since I started designing jewelry, I've been doing quite a bit of tool collecting, as well. My latest acquisition is a flex shaft -- which, by the way, was a Christmas gift from my aforementioned husband.
This flex shaft lets me do a whole lot of things better and faster -- drilling and polishing, for example. With my latest creation, "Two Hearts Are One Pendant," I was able to use the flex shaft to drill appropriate holes quickly, rather than the slow hand drill method. Once I completed sawing the Chinese character for "heart" and did some preliminary filing and sanding, I was able to use the flex shaft again for polishing with an excellent result.
I love my tools AND my husband!
