So far that’s the best modification I’ve seen. Thanks for the tips to make life easier at the bench.
Perfect 10 minute video on the bench pin. Thank you.
I am so stoked to try this!
I have watched videos on this subject before and still learned something. Thanks!
Wonderful demonstration!
Terrifically useful and clear video! Some great tips and very clear instructions.
This is very helpful! Thank you!
VERY helpful! Great video!
This is very helpful! Thanks so much for such a thorough video. I'm going to buy a new bench pin and try this out.
Thank you Alex! Your bench tips have been very helpful! I have used several of your suggestions. Thank you, again, for sharing your knowledge. :-)
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
This is awesome, thank you!!!
Nice tutorial
Thank you...
Great ideas, thanks.
Very helpful thank you
Great tutorial Alex. I've been at the bench for 10+ years and love to find new ways to make my peg better. Recently I added a brass insert to the right hand side of my peg to hold rings while I file the interior after soldering a sizing. Tricky to get the geometry right but that keeps it interesting. Thanks for all the tips. I'll try a few on my next one. Thanks.
I especially like your advice about not being precious about peg. It's a consumable, but it can be hard to find the time to make a new one.
Thank you - this video was so helpful.
So glad!
Wow! Terrific how to video! I learned so much in like 10 minutes!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Excellent modification. I cut my new bench pin just like it. Thanks
Great info on your video Alex. Tell me about your work apron. I do not see it on the RioGrande website. Thanks
Niiiiceee!
You didn't say what the rounded area was for.
Hello lonedfx, can you provide us with a time stamp so that we can better understand what your question was?
@@RioGrande1944 At 3:00, a half circle is cut out. At 7:45, the video explains the purpose of each of the sections, except for the half circle.
@@lonedfx we will get your question to our Tech Team so that we can get you a professional answer!
@@lonedfx hello, our Tech Team got back to us and they said to refer back to the video at 2:54 and he mentions that he uses this area to hold his ring clamp. They also said to refer to this video to see the ring clamp that would go onto this bench pin, or one of this type. www.riogrande.com/product/hardwood-ring-clamp/113105 We hope you found this helpful! Please feel free to reach out!
Great video but it would make life easier if you Americans converted to metric. Yes I am old school Australian and understand imperial but metric is so much better. Anyway I will be modifying my bench peg to this design as it will suit how I work.
Hello there. Thank you for the comment.
I been a west end jewelry in London for 45 years and evebody I have worked with has never made a bench pin like that life is to short !! Sounds good but. Sorry about that.
It takes a short while to craft but saves a lot of time and potential wear on joints. Seems like customizing your bench pin to your specific needs is a no brainer.
