For this final post of my flexshaft #metalsmithsocietyminiseries I wanted to discuss some additional accessories that are available and compatible with the @foredomelectric SR flexshaft! One of the most common accessories are additional handpieces! Hammer handpieces are an awesome tool for stonesetting and texturing, I have the Foredom H.15D and I love it! The difference between the H.15 and the H.15D is the latter has a duplex spring connection built-in. The benefit of that is its a bit more flexible as you work. As mentioned in a previous post if you use a hammer handpiece remember they are not meant to exceed 5000 RPMs as it can burn the handpiece out. There are also tons of different Quick Release handpieces that are compatible with the SR, they can save you a ton of time when you are changing out different bits. Another useful accessory for the SR is the @pepetools_usa Jump Ring Maker. My SR from @aajewelrysupply actually came as a kit with the Jump Ring Maker (great value!) I plan to do a video on this awesome tool soon! Foredom also makes a handpiece holder, which turns your flexshaft into a mini polishing lathe (showed this on a #tooltalktuesday awhile back)! If you rely solely on your flexshaft for polishing this holder is a great addition. Lastly there are also various belt sander attachments that connect directly with your flexshaft. I don’t own one (yet) but it’s on my wishlist! I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone for tuning in every week for this mini series and for being so patient, these mini series often take me longer to put together than I expect. If you have an idea/topic for a future mini series I’d love if you would comment below and I’ll compile a list! If you are in the market for a flexshaft please take advantage of the offer from our friends at @aajewelrysupply 10% off ALL flexshafts and micromotors with code METALSMITH (good through 8/31) thank you to Danny from @aajewelrysupply for sponsoring this series and to Mike Zagielski from @foredomelectric who answered all of my questions (of which there were many!) #sponsored #flexshaft#metalsmithsociety#SRflexshaft
