Question
Hi I just bought my dremmel drill and am using diamond head drill bits to make my holes in my crystals and stones, but i want to make sure i set them right.....They are going to be for neckleaces and all I can think of to set them would be to use epoxy in the hole with just a straight metal with a loop on top. but i just feel like that may come out fairly easy since the epoxy is the only thing holding the metal which is vertical and seems like it may get loose somehow and slip out....do you know of any other way to set these precious stones? or just know of the best possible epoxy for them? Thank you for taking the time to rad this! i really appreciate it!
Much Love
Jessi
Answer
hello jesse..I dont quite understand why you need epoxy if you are drilling holes..
I know drilling correctly can be dificult..I suggest a Foredom dril not a dremel and the small
bench press that holds the drill...call Rio Grande in Alberquequi NM
they sell all epoxies and ask for an expert in those products..
regards rolfe
