Here is a tip for making those needle files a bit more comfortable to hold from @goudsmederijlamoon - โThermolock, great for so many jobs. Of course you can use it to hold jewelry in place while setting the stones. But have you ever thought of this use? It makes a great ergonomic handle, perfectly sized to your grip.
Thermolock is a plastic that gets soft when heated, like in a microwave or boiling water. When it cools down it will be solid again. Re usable.
I know there is also a clear/white relatable product on the market. But I can't think of the product name right now ๐๐
