Jewelry Studio Tour + Lapidary Demo
November 23rd | 2–4PM | Free for DIYcave Members | Come Explore, Learn, and Connect
Join us for a special behind-the-scenes tour of the DIYcave Jewelry Studio! We’ll showcase our specialty tools—including the jewelry shear, rolling mill, and polisher—and share examples of textured pieces you can create using the rolling mill, with ideas on how to make your own patterns. Learn about upcoming jewelry classes, see member-made work, and hear how folks are using the studio to bring their ideas to life.
In the second half Barb will lead a live lapidary demo featuring our lapidary equipment and highlighting our NEW lapidary room! There will be a demonstration on cutting stone slabs on the rock saw, attaching them to dop sticks, and shaping them into cabochons using the cabbing machine. It’s a mesmerizing process and a great intro to working with stones that can be incorporated into your jewelry.
We’ll also highlight fun Glowforge projects like jewelry stands and explore creative ways to showcase and gift your handmade pieces just in time for the holidays. Whether you’re into contemporary design, wearable art, or just want to incorporate new materials into your jewelry, this is a great chance to get inspired and connect with fellow makers.
There are a limited number of spots available. If you are unable to attend the event, please cancel your registration so that another member can register and attend!
