We stock the best Hammers & Mallets
Hammers are the most basic of a metalsmith's tools. Without a jewellers hammer, you are not a smith. Most hammers have two faces that are differently sized or shaped, however mallets have identical faces. Most hammers have straight shafts, with the exception is the chasing hammer.
A jewellers saw frame and blades are essential for cutting shapes out ofmetal.The teeth of the saw blade need to be pointing down to the handle as cutting is done with the downward stroke. The saw blade needs to be tensioned so it will PING when being plucked like a guitar string. Use Beeswax for lubricating the blade before sawing.
