  1. Folded link bracelets without pins come in a huge variety of forms. There the metal sheet that needs to pushed out is normally showing a spherical elevation and a recessed or cut out area where to place the marker. Then simply push in ARROW direction. I found that pushing with the pusher slightly tilted to the back helps to apply more force.

    I have marked the location in green at the opening where you place your pusher to push the metal sheet out that connects the links. The shapes vary from bracelet to bracelet. Even from the same manufacturer. The elevated nibs on the metal sheet hold it in place resting in the circular cut-outs of the folded bracelet sheet. To re-insert, simply push them against the arrow direction. Again the disposable plastic cigarette lighter makes in inexpensive pusher, or any PVC block you might have handy.

  2. I drill all of mine by hand.

    Really not very difficult to do/

    I use a pin vise, drilling oil and a bit readily available for dremels in a 6 piece kit.

    It doesn't take very long and the control you have is ideal.

    Good luck,

    Kurt.

    Kurt, any more info you can provide on this? I too have a pin vice and have had the same thought. Any chance for a link to the exact Dremel kit? A detailed shopping list/pic would be great. Out of curiosity how long does hand jammin' a lug take?

    Thanks in advance!
