Saw piercing metal can be an absolute dream when done right! You can lose yourself for hours when you get in the groove but like anything worth doing it takes practice. I’ve been practicing for over a decade and a half now and I want to share some of the helpful techniques I’ve picked up. I’m going to tell you all of the things I wish someone had told me when I started!
Enter the saw piercing video tutorial!ย If you want to be cutting fairly detailed designs out of metal this is a great place to start. Accompanying the downloadable video is a template for two different floral pendant designs so you can create a necklace on your own. As a bonus I’ve included a beginner’s exercise which is great to practice with before tackling the main event.
So if you’re wondering how to learn jewellery making from the comfort of your own home (without the need for a torch), this will set you on the right path. The video covers the whole pendant making process from applying the pattern, drilling, choosing sawblades and saw frames, cutting techniques to finishing.
Happy saw piercing!
