[Jewelry making - Article 00068] - [Orchid] Dressing of new hammerheads

[Kerri Scott Duncan]

    I am a newer member of Orchid- I have just bought a few new
    Peddinhaus hammers- and want to dress the heads and remove the
    edging... (Tim McCreight and various other books Finegold and Sietz,
    and Oppi's references have nothing on this either) 

    I tried searching the archives- several notes on not letting the
    heads get too hot- but not on the process to de-edge and return the
    faces to polished level... although I understand the process should
    not grind the primary working face of the hammer- the edges if not at
    the same finish may (and have) marred working surfaces...

Thank you in advance
