My bench ready.
Coils of sterling already wound and ready to cut.
The coil goes into the holder and coated with a lubricant to prolong the blade's life. The top with the cutting slot is screwed over the coil.
This is the housing that fits over the cutting blade.
The blade is drawn down the cutting slot.
Here the coils are cut and have been joined with wire to keep them all together in the tumbling/polishing process.
All polished and ready to make something beautiful.
Starting to put together a Byzantine chain.
A good days work.
Peace
