...Or...
What I Did On Superbowl Sunday
(Before the game of course.)
Today I used my jeweler's saw for the 1st time....
and (of course) I broke the saw blade. Ugh!
Perhaps the jump rings I made were too thick? (12 gauge)
Or, and this is more likely, I used too much pressure while sawing...
But... I did finish the jump rings...
I cut them by hand with wire cutters.
Big ones I stole, I mean borrowed, from my husband's tool box...
shhh! Don't tell!
By the time I finished, this is what my workbench --read: kitchen counter-- looked like:
Note the "high-tech" nail file I use for filing the edges smooth.
Next time, I'll try the saw on smaller gauge wire. It's a good thing that the saw came with several blades!
Do you have any good stories about the 1st time you used a new tool?
