Welcome to the first ever Metalsmith Society podcast episode! My goal is to be able to discuss some the most popular tips we have shared as a community on Instagram @metalsmithsociety often after a tip is shared there is gold in comments! Great questions, valid counterpoints and entirely different techniques suggested. So join me for this episode as you work in your studio today!

In this episode I discussed Japanese Finger Guards you can use to protect your fingers while jewelry making. See the Instagram post here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1Mt8Qtu7o

 Mistake from episode, the wax I called "resistance" wax is actually Renaissance wax. It's used to keep metals from tarnishing and oxidizing and it can help keep patina looking fresh!
