Sharing with you this stone setting system with a set of 18 punches we found on @riogrande for easier setting of tubes! We used to just do manual setting of tubes with bezel rollers until we discovered this stone setting system. 🙌🏻 Info to save for later: www.riogrande.com - Item no. 118961. #riojeweler

Sharing with you this clip-on magnifying glass we got from Shopee for less than PhP500! We often use this for manual mirror polish using a rotary tool. It magnifies the pieces we polish to ensure all remaining rouge is removed, and it also acts as a face shield.

 

Honeycomb Block

 

Here's a soldering tip for projects with multiple components! We stick steel pins into our ceramic honeycomb blocks to keep all components in place while soldering. You can save this info for after the enhanced quarantine: You can get a roll of 20 gauge round steel wires from any hardware store and small honeycomb blocks for less than PhP200 from Shopee. Bigger honeycomb blocks are also available at @riogrande. 🙌

In today's episode of Teacher Mai's Shopee Finds, we present to you this amazing pin vise! Regular flat nose pliers are great for twisting wires, but this mini hand-held pin vise brings it to a whole new level of fun. 🙌
