This was a very useful video. I have definitely been confused about what bits to use. Thanks.
You're welcome Tonia! I'm glad it was helpful:)
Chad, thank you so much for this video!! I know this was for me, because I needed it!
Must have been:)
with Pepe as a sponsor I'm surprised that you don't use sunburst polishing wheels - Dedeco is a great brand and they allow you to get really great finishes. Love your stuff Chad!
Technically, I am an Affiliate of PepeTools. I'll have to try some of those though. Thanks.
Thank you Chad for this. It was a good review for me. I've had no clue what to do with the ball burs.
They are great for all-purpose removal of stuff:)
You always give great advice. Thank you!!!
Thanks Johanna:)
Lots of good info here. Cup burs also work great for smoothing wrinkly ball embellishments. I love creating texture, and those diamond burs are great for adding texture to your pieces.
Thanks Rochelle! I should have mentioned the texture thing:). I appreciate you adding that!
@chadssilversmithing 👍😄
Great advice. Thanks 👏
Thank you Toinette!
I love the silicon wheels, they work a treat.The split mandrel is one of my fave attachments, I use mine for sanding and polishing. Thanks for sharing Chad and take care.
Thank you Gazz:)
The sanding burrs are for acrylic nails also.
I imagine those would work well:)
Perfectly needed at this time for me 😊
I’m really glad Adiem!
Very useful!
Thanks Chad.
Can I ask why you still use the deemed when you have a Foredom?
Unfortunately my Foredom doesn’t work well. It’s a second hand one that needs some love. I’ll eventually get one that works right:)
What would you recommend to file down the sharp edges of the filigree on a silver bangle bracelet
I'd have to see it, but the blue silicone abrasive wheel would smooth things without endangering fine details too much.
Have you ever done any hand engraving? I really want to learn it.
I haven't Kristi. I had a couple of students take some classes and they seemed to enjoy it.
@@chadssilversmithing I'll think on it some more.
Hi, Chad. Love your videos! But, I’ve been mystified by something for a long time: Why don’t you use a flex shaft or micro-motor polishing tool in lew of the Dremel? Not even a variable speed Dremel gives you the ability to work at almost infinitely variable revolutions, from almost zero to full throttle. When I started out, I used a Dremel, but was quickly frustrated by the inability to work at extremely slow speeds when I deemed it helpful. My Foredom was such a good purchase, and wasn’t prohibitively expensive-less than $300. The foot petal control gives me much more control than the Dremel, and it’s actually safer to use than a one. Just curious…
I do have an old Foredom that I picked up second hand, but it doesn’t work very well. I keep thinking I’ll fix it, but never seem to get around to it. I’ll eventually save my pennies and get a new one:)
