Here are some #diy texturing tools shared by @kellylimbergjewelry -
βWho needs fancy stamping tools when you can use old screwdrivers and worn out polisher mandrels?! π This is how I make all my starburst details on the backs of pieces. β¨βπ₯β For those newer to the idea of modifying tools you can use a belt sander, sandpapers, diamond abrasive cards (shared in my #tooltalktuesday page on my website) and ceragloss wheels to name a few. Just make sure if you are modifying steel tools you donβt use the same sandpaper/abrasives etc. on other metals as you will cross contaminate! Thank you so much to Kelly for sharing this video with us! I like how she secured her work in a pitch bowl as well π #metalsmithing #metalsmithsociety #benchjeweler #jewelrymakingtipoftheday #diyjewelrytools
