You Will Never Use a Flex Shaft Again

Take just a moment....think about the evolution of human transportation. Not too many years ago if you wanted to go somewhere you would either walk or jump on your horse for him to take you to your destination. With a little innovation and creativity the horse drawn buggy was born. A much more exciting way to travel with a softer ride and even the ability to be pulled by a team of horses. In the span of just a few hundred years we move quickly through other means of more sophisticated transportation such as rail and even the automobile.

What used to be a multiple week journey across the United States, today can be done in just a few hours, reclined back in a soft chair, watching a movie while you are quickly flown to your destination. You're probably wondering what this has to do with jewelry making?? The process of finishing and polishing a piece of handcrafted jewelry has gone through this same type of evolution. Are you still polishing your entire piece by hand or adding texture one stroke or one strike at a time?
