Pierced Angel

Still playing with the Angel ornaments. Got carried away on this one. It's not fun piercing with a Dremel but it can be done. The problem with the slow speed grinders (26,000 rpm) is that the bit wants to follow the grain so you have to take it very slow and really grip the tool. After a while you kind of learn where it's likely to grab and you can lighten up the cut in the non grabby directions. all in all its a lot more fun and easy with a really high speed grinder (400,000 rpm) but it's just not in my budget.
