Drill Holes

1. First, use metal shears to cut a 1 x 1 inch piece of sterling plate, and file all around the piece with a jeweler's file.

2. With the dremel and bit, drilled 2 holes in the corners of one side of the metal square just cut.

3. Now drill three more holes, but this time drill them opposite the two previously drilled and make sure they are evenly spaced apart. Also use a file to file around the holes to ensure they are smooth.
