About
Want to create unique pendants, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and more, with small treasures you may have collected or inherited or simply came upon? Learn how to drill holes in these items so you can!
Learn about drilling with a flex shaft (a motorized machine that helps with drilling, cutting, carving, and polishing jewelry) vs. a drill press, what drill bits to use, and get some tips on cold connections (joining parts that don't require heat, such as rivets, tabs, screws, knots, prongs, and bezels) to add finishing touches to your jewelry.
