Hi,

    I have been following the postings on this and wandered if any one
    who has made them before could offer some advice.  I have tried this
    before and never been happy with the finished result.  I can
    construct it ok, but am not happy with the finish - how do you get
    the bits of the internal solid band that you can see through the
    pierced sections to look polished and finished, I just can't get in
    there to finish it properly no matter what I try.  I am only using
    thin sheet (sterling silver) 0.5mm for the pierced layer.  So I
    thought my polishing mop would get in there and do the job, but
    apparently not.  Any advice would be much appreciated as am getting
    very frustrated with it. :-) 

Many thanks,
Karen
