You would say to me, "Back to the polishing motor with you!" 😉

Thank you so much! I appreciate the short, and to the point, video on an essential topic! I'm so glad I came across your channel. Many other videos I've learned from lack your attention to detail and dedication to working accurately and precisely. Having your influence in my jewelry has certainly improved the quality, even though it always takes longer at first haha. Cheers!

Hiya Chris,
Perfect timing as I've got to start making these in Argentium. Cookies sell the scrolls but no one I've found sells the posts in 935 or 940. Would using a parallel-sided round file work? Giving a more frequently seen round bottom to the groove? As always I admire your attention to detail and finish, if it ain't perfect, fix it! All it costs me is time, but time very well spent I believe. Thank you for the video and its content.
Stay safe, Steve...

Good! I can imagine the file working but the corners help lock my file in the groove. Try it and let me know
