Merry Christmas Judy!






I have been doing a little browsing on Etsy looking for some new tools. I think the New Year is a great time to try out some new techniques and add something different to my jewelry designs. These are the two items I would like to get but I would like some advice from anyone who uses these or something similar. I can't quite decide if its best to get a clear top for a dapping set or not. The clear makes sense but is it durable enough?

So, these two items will do it...oh yeah and add the root canal I had yesterday to my Christmas presents and I am all set! No fruit cake for me this year!

  1. Oooo...I don't have any advice but right now I only have the inexpensive wood dapping block, I'd love to have the one pictured! I've been thinking that maybe I'll treat myself to one at Wirefest in April...hum...

  2. Haha. Yep, I know what you mean. I have my presents taken care of until next Christmas due to my graduate school application fees.

  4. You poor thing! You can't count a root canal as a Christmas present. That's not fair! I really can't help you out with advice on these tools. I'd love to have one of both. Hope to see you after Christmas! :)

  5. OMG - a root canal - is there anything worse? Hope you feel better. I have the dapping block set like your pictures and I love it - I don't use it often but when I do, it works very well.

    Merry Christmas.

  6. Sorry to hear about the dental work...but you survived and the worst is over I hope!
    As for the dapping blocks, I have one like the one on the top and love it! It can do amazing, quality cutting.
