Hey friends! ๐ As I mentioned in my newsletter this month, Iโm diving into tube setting tips โ and Iโm kicking things off by talking about one of my favorite bench tools: the tube cutting jig. Iโve had mine since college and it has seen A LOT of use. ๐ This little tool can be held by hand or secured in a bench vise, and it has a small arm that holds your tubing in place with a slot and an adjustable arm for different lengths โ so youโre not just cutting small pieces, youโre cutting pieces that are all essentially the same size. Game changer for consistency! If you do a lot of tube settings or youโre wanting to get into them, this tool is a total no-brainer. And honestly itโs not just for tubing โ Iโve used it on square rods, rectangular wire, and more over the years. Itโs one of those tools that just keeps finding new jobs at the bench. ๐ง If you want the link, I found a small jewelry tool business in Utah on Etsy - comment โplease send the link and Iโll DM that to you!! (Affiliate link โ I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you!) Stay tuned because thereโs a lot more tube setting content coming this month! ๐
