Files are not only an essential tool for filing and finishing jewelry but you can also use them to carve your metal, think of the endless design possibilities! For this demo I used my triangular Glardon Vallorbe needle file from @ottofrei1930 They have a HUGE range of these fabulous files and you can buy individual needle files from them in a range of cuts or invest in a set. These Swiss made files are the best of the best and you’ll have them forever.   Use code: MMS5 - Metalsmith Society 5% Coupon Code No Minimum - Expires 12/31/2024
