Mattia Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Uh, no. Get a handsaw, jewellers/metal cutting blade. Works great, not expensive, not difficult. Quote

low end fuzz Posted November 11, 2006 Report Posted November 11, 2006 the only power tool ive ever seen used on pearl with sucsess was a drill at school; for the eyes of a pair of sharks ;(long story;stubid bob) even then it was scary; i dont even cut right on my line, so i can sand it to the real shape w/pare and files Quote
Mattia Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Oh, I drill (with tiny bits and a dremel) and power-sand (Again, dremel) pearl all the time. But a jigsaw...forget it. Quote
