I often do cuff bracelets, and sometimes bangles.
For cuffs I carve most of it flat, but always sort of touch it up in the round. Or if im doung any chasing i will do it in the round. Goes without saying with closed bangles. I use various bits of chunks of wood and pitch to hold things..
Just wondering if there is a fixture (like ring genie, or the various setting fixtures) for bracelets?
Any that people have made? I'm thinking a U with a pin that goes through the top skewering the mandril that the bracelet is fixed to. Couple washers... Some sort of mechanism to lock it.
??
Thank you.
