I am pretty much a hands-on, old school, manual arts type person.
this said, I was recently shown this amazing metalsmithing tool - the imakejewelry app for the iphone (or ipod touch), by incredible jewelery artist Victoria Lansford.
I would usually scoff at some techie thing like this... but this is AN AMAZING BENCH TOOL. every imaginable gauge, weight & length conversion, ring sizing by gauge, and all sorts of info on stones... IN YOUR POCKET!
all that and it's under four dollars. worth it's weight in silver.
Oooh, thanks. Just downloaded it. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! I never would have known about this otherwise- thanks for the tidbit, lady!
