The pattern is by Twoblungs from the Scrollers Cafe.  Its cut from 0.5mm Stirling Silver with a 2/0 jewelry blade.  The best thing about this one is.......It's SOLD.

The piece of Silver that my daughter brought for me is 4 1/2 inches x 2 inches. I have some paper stuck to the underside with Sticky Roll paper that you can get from The Scroller Ltd.  ( Sorry I Have forgotten the proper name of it )  I find what I would like to cut and attach in the same way on the top.  Because I have enough silver to hold onto I don't need a jig.  I use 2/0 jewelry blades to cut and turn the speed down low.  When its cut I sand the piece with some very fine sanding pads that i got from  www.alphaabrasives.com   3000 being the finest., when the sanding is complete I wipe the silver over with some rubbing alcohol, this takes away any sticky residue that may be left.  My daughter's got a soft mallet made from plastic I think, and I hit the item I have cut a few times both sides and this hardens the silver without marking it.  With the hand held Dremel I polish the silver with a wire brush and then rub some auto polish for mag wheels and aluminum on and buff it off with a buffer in the Dremel. At this stage it will go black but that's OK just keep buffing it will soon shine up. Then wipe over with a baby wipe and dry off.  Finished.  Hope this helps in some small way.
