COURSE LENGTH: 1 day

The Jeweler’s Saw is one of the most amazing tools on the planet. Unlike scissors or a razor knife, it is capable of extracting very precise shapes out of a wide variety of materials, anything from paper to steel. It can be used in a multitude of sawing operations, on and off the jewelry bench. But it can also be a tricky little tool to learn. 

Over the past 40 years, artist Thomas Mann has trained over 450 studio employees of Thomas Mann Design to use this essential jewelry making tool. Through this experience, he has researched, refined and broken down all of the components of the saw. 

Mann's Learn to Saw™ technique has proven to be so effective that he is able to take a student, completely unfamiliar with this tool, and have them sawing like a professional within an hour or two of instruction and practice.  With this workshop, you will embark on a journey with Tom's 40 years of experience to guide you, as you learn how to use the simple yet amazing jeweler's saw.

So join us on January 10th for a wonderful opportunity to learn from a Master Jeweler!
