Here is a great sanding tip from @jewelryinstructor - “when trying to make sure a ring shank is completely flat along the edges, color it with a sharpie marker before sanding. Sand flat on a bench block, alternating circular and figure 8 motions and turning the ring frequently. Check the sharpie marks and you’ll be able to clearly see where the low spots are!” Thank you for sharing not only the sharpie tip but the additional technique for sanding figure 8 style! 🙌 #benchtip #makingjewelry #jewelryinstructor #onmybench #benchview #learntomakejewelry #alwaysastudent #studiolife #metalsmithsociety
