In this 90-minute seminar we will explore the technique of sawing for jewelry applications. The different saw frames, saw blades, and bench pins available will be discussed. Technique aspects of posture, bench height, tool grip, and blade lubricants will be addressed as they impact ease of sawing. Tips on marking for precision cuts as well as helpful PDFs of sawing practice will be available in class.
