Wise words from our talented professor, Deanna Pastel 🔥 ✨ #Repost @deannapastel with @make_repost ・・・ Sawing is the backbone of metalsmithing. It’s hard, tests your patience and humbles students at the start of each semester. Creating a big something for myself and trying to inspire my students that it gets easier with time, patience and practice. This is a start to a ceiling light fixture for my bathroom. @accjewelry #sawingandpiercing #basemetals #jewelrymakingtechniques #sculpture (at ACC Jewelry Department) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTqlxvAt5Hz/?utm_medium=tumblr

Quick test run with the new saw. I'm a bit rusty and didn't do any clean up but I'm loving it so far. I'm teaching a sawing workshop tomorrow so I should have more time to play around with it. Additionally, there is still a spot open in tomorrow's Mastering the Jewelers saw workshop from 1-5 if you wish to join. #jewelerssaw #piericing #sawingandpiercing (at metamorphosis metals) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFSkGd5Hxde/?igshid=1d9g7ik92qia8

This simple tool is the most important in your jewelry making arsenal, yet it's a skill that many beginners are reluctant to embrace. Join us on Feb 2 for our "Mastering the Jewelers Saw" workshop and learn how easy and relaxing sawing can actually be. #jewelrymakingclass #sawingmetal #sawingandpiercing #jewelerssaw #raleighjewelryclasses (at metamorphosis metals) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsvj3iHn51r/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10hsad7ioaa5u
