Dear All,

    I am a *new jeweller* beginning to make pieces and get a workshop
    together. Despite looking at several books could someone, anyone,
    please tell me what the dickens collet punches and blocks actually
    do? Doubtless they do something that's taking me ages by hand. 

Many thanks.
Ailsa
