I finally found “my jewelry “ box. The one filled with hand forged pieces that I had personally created. MY FAVORITE PIECES💖

I had a moment only described as a stroke lightening of joy flooding my heart, and sparks of creativity firing off in my brain.

I had no idea that I had shut down not only by severe withdrawl but I had only created 1 piece of jewelry in the last 6 months.

Pulling out my favorite pieces of jewelry was like being reunited with my spirit that had gone so dim.

I am in sincere hope that this is a turning point for me, that I will be back to creating one of a kind jewelry again.
The joy has returned after such a long period of mourning. Mourning takes as long as it takes, can’t force it or ignore it.

Any trick to getting good smaller sized discs out of this tool?

I get great 1/2” sizes but it tries to eat my medal and the punch tries to stick for the 6mm size.

Yes, I am using same medal thickness as a shim directly across from the hole I am to punch out before I tighten down the top.. could I be tightening the top down too much? It seems the medal moves even when its tightened down when I start hammering… any ideas are welcome.
