#affiliate For this week’s
#tooltalktuesday I have an awesome tool (and PROMO) from our friends
@durstontools Their 24 Piece Doming Set which includes a dapping block and carry case! For those completely new to dapping blocks they are an essential tool for doming metal. In my demo I took a 1” circle and made it into a cup, this is done by striking it into the dapping block and annealing in-between hammering into the smaller parts of the block. This is just the start of what you can do with this, you can saw designs and shapes prior to doming or use the tiniest domes for design elements. It’s a great forming tool. We have also shared some great tips with it over the years, for example it is awesome for making ring bands or thick jump rings perfectly circular by giving them a few strikes inside the dapping block. I probably use mine the most often for that purpose. From today 11/24 through 11/26 Durston is offering our community 25% off this dapping set with code MSS25 Durston is located in the United Kingdom, however this promo is so generous you still save money when shipping to the US. If folks in Europe want to see more promos be sure to like this post and tag friends to spread the word :) #FormingMetal #DappingSet #DurstonTools #JewelryMakingTutorial #HowToDomeMetal
