    Can someone pleas tell me more about a "Jump Ringer". Does anyone use
    them? I am relatively new to the jewellery business but have a high
    demand for a certain type of link bracelet that I am manufacturing. I
    always seem to be cutting huge gashes in my fingers when sawing
    through jump rings with my fret saw. I also wrap the coiled metal in
    masking tape to make it easier to hold before sawing. Do jump ringers
    work? If so - which one do you recommend (I will be importing this
    and don't want to make an expensive mistake)? Can you buy mandrals in
    different sizes and is one type of jump ringer able to cut/saw round,
    oval and square jump rings? Is there another cheaper/easier method
    that I don't know of?

    PS - I think this forum is great - it's wonderful to be in touch with
    so many professionals!!
