    cbilton.creator-spring.com Keeping your drill bits sharp and oiled in essential for accurate and quick working. Allowing you to make jewellery at your best potential.
    It may be tempting sometimes to battle on with an under-performing drill but
    it actually costs you time. Especially as a drill can be perfectly sharpened in just a few seconds. Also considering the extra pressure needed to be applied to a blunt drill to make it cut is fatiguing and can cause pain in your wrist. You also run the danger of over heating the drill as it rotates which can burn of any lubrication applied resulting in it gripping the hole and snapping.
    As your pendant motor will have to work so much harder to rotate the drill this will also cause unnecessary wear and tear to it. Even starting a new hole with a blunt drill can be troublesome as it is more likely to slip out of position as soon as it rotates. The lack of sharpness does not allow any 'bite' to help the drill stay seated and pull down in to the metal.
    Sharpening your drill bits is an easy thing to do and literally takes just seconds so there is no excuse!
    The channel has potential to grow in to a great archive of jewellers knowledge with your help.
    With patrons support I will be able to offer far more information than I am currently able to.
    With over 2 decades of knowledge gained in the jewellery trade working with some of the best diamond mounters in the UK I can train practitioners of jewellery making, up to and far beyond the skill level found in High Street jewellers workshops.
    I have been lucky enough to have been taught by actual Bond Street shop model makers and my ambition is to share what I have learned through out my career to as many people as possible.
    My vehicle to do this is the Diamond Mounter TH-cam channel and now after nearly 1 year of uploading video guides, its time to take it up a level.
    My ambition is to be able to make instructional videos with not just silver, but gold and platinum also. Some proper jewellers soldering equipment will enable me to create much more special pieces too! This will open up a whole new world of information I have to share.
    There are many specific methods and techniques used for the different precious metals and knowledge about gemstones I can teach that will never enter my videos unless I am actually working with them.
    If you may be interested in becoming a patron and supporting the channel to help it grow please click the link below to go to the Patreon website and find out about all the benefits that come with being a Diamond Mounter patron.

    There is now a new entry level tier which costs just £1 a month.
    Its named the supporter tier which allows you to support the channel with out any substantial financial obligation. I will thank you personally on the next Diamond Mounter video uploaded!
    I hope you will consider becoming a patron.
    Thank you,

    With this channel I share with you some of the methods and techniques I have learned over the previous 23 years as a professional Jeweller. I specialise in high end bespoke pieces made the old fashioned way by hand.
    I wish to document everything I know and make accessible to everyone rare skills and techniques only usually taught in high security jewellers workshops.

    Fantastic! So tired of throwing dull drill bits away, nevermore! Helpful would be to share the item name and item number if you have - even if it's not US product (for US watchers), easier to find the tools you use (sandpaper discs) are those the snap-on kind?

    Hi! I just do it the opposite way, I fix the drill bit in my shaft shank and put it against diamond disc or whatever “sharpening” surface, you need to control the angle but both sides are even this way, you don’t need to do it twice

    Is this an emery paper disc? I’ve not used them before. I’m guessing there are different grits so what do you recommend please?

    • @DiamondMounter

      Yes emery discs. Super useful. Mine are Kemdent brand. 22mm and coarse.

    Any reason why you don't use the Fordham Rotary Shaft.?

      Since moving to Japan and buying a micro motor I swear I will never go back to a rotary shaft drive pendant drill. The micromotors are so smooth and quiet the quality of my work literally increased from using one.

    Japanese houses are made badly and cheap. They fall apart in under 40 years. Junk.

      @@DiamondMounter I lived in Japan for a while, loved it there, interesting place, not much imagination among the people (they copy everything from lack of imagination), but they have a beehive style of mindset. There are few leaders, plenty of followers. They being mostly following constantly it spawns rules, lots of rules, lots. So they all adhere to the rules. There is the odd 'breakout' type of man sometimes, independents who follow their own path, but not many. They make great factory operators due to the regimented style of upbringing and education. They are mostly law-abiding, but the criminal breakouts can be exceptional in being very 'animal'. The criminals there, the professionals have rules, lots of them, but are just as nasty as in the next country, China. Although murder is not preferred as in China - powerful threats are always good for the Japanese. Murder brings disposal issues. Chinese don't care about that end of things. The Japanese will unfortunately do some incredibly stupid things that their 'way' (culture) compels them. They are shy when living overseas, lack a sense of adventure, don't fare well unless there's friends around to advise. Like fish out of water. They fit to the 'odd' category of people around the world, but they would not understand that if told. Their intelligence is blunted by their cultural ways. They'd be exceptional if they abandoned Kanji, Katakana and Hiragana and took up an alphabet (that will never happen). I'd happily live in Japan again. An unfortunate characteristic is their hatreds of foreigners. If you dress very well and obviously expensively, you will be received well (as anywhere), but if you dress down, they will assume you are far less than them and will ignore you. If you've been there a while you should be able to speak Japanese. I hope you do, it is a huge advantage.
