This is another outstanding video, providing very helpful information about using polishing metal. It was great to learn about the various tools and when it is appropriate to use them. This video will come in handy when I start more soldering!

Fabulous video. Takes the mystery out of polishing metal. Like the fact that he takes a piece of jewelry through the process.

Thank you Joe for the informative video of using the right polishing tips for the job. I will definitely learn to use this as it looks like it would make the final steps so much easier.
By the way, I now have your books also and I'm enjoying them.
Thanks again!

I bought a flex shaft in 2010 and have barely used it as I couldn't find a thorough enough set of instructions to feel comfortable using it. This was perfect. Short and simple, but full of useful information. Thank you!

So much useful information, but if I'm just starting out, how would I ever remember all of this? It would have been nice if there was a hand out, chart or slides attached to this video. I'm going to make my own.

Love Joe's tutorials. He packs so much info into his video, it's over before you know it and all of a sudden, it all makes total sense...and now you are completely informed. The videos are invaluable. Don't forget to mark it as one of your favorites.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Excellent tutorial! I've been trying to decide if a Dremel will do what I need, and Joe's comparison gave me the pros and cons. The content and delivery of information was perfect. Having the workflow for a piece was especially helpful in determining when to use a particular tool. Thank you for creating this video.

Joe is an excellent teacher, and those charts and graphs that folks wanted are actually in his books. While I understand that Joe was focusing on the attachments that cause the least dust and grime, I wish the starter Flexshaft kits came with the silicone wheels, radials, and polishing pins that he describes. So after further purchases I am now ready to confidently use my flexshaft.

Joe's a great teacher who explains very clearly what he's doing and why. I'll definitely be coming back to this lesson over and over while I build my confidence using my rotary tool. Thank you!!

I learned SO MUCH from this video (including that I now want a flex-shaft tool). Not only did it cover the basics, but answered my questions about removing excess solder and how to polish while leaving the patina in the background. Can't recommend this video enough!
