Just found titanium rods on eBay for...

Many of us have no doubt bought new tools and gizmos in ‘20. Some a great success and others just disappearing into that box under the workbench! How about sharing your successes and disappointments?...

Welcome from another relative beginner! I came into jewellery via clock restoration as I needed a bit more possibility to express myself in an artistic way. Both of us in clocks and watches were...

I have just bought an Evans Gold pro max from cooksons which included the polishing compound and a bag of shot. I was surprised that unlike my other shot it had spheres in it. Not only that I thought...
