[Jewelry making - Article 00512] - [Orchid] Tumbling square silver sheet

[Jocelyn Broyles]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========


    I make pendants out of small squares of sheet silver. I currently
    sand and polish each one by hand and with a dremel tool. I have a
    tumbler and it seems to me that I could save lots of time by using it
    to both smooth my corners and to polish the pieces. What are thoughts
    on this? And what steps would I use? I'm completely unfamiliar with
    tumbling -- it's a very new process to me and I've not even finished
    my first batch of stones yet. 

Thanks!
