Bangle & Bracelet Shaping Mandrel — Round Stepped Wood, with Tang for Vice Mounting
Round bangles come out consistent when each is formed on the same fixed diameter. This hardwood mandrel provides four stepped sizes instead of a continuous taper, so repeat pieces in silver, copper or other non-ferrous metals match without constant measuring.
The wood is turned solid and finished smooth, which protects soft precious metal from marring and lets a formed bangle slide free easily. A squared tang at the end drops into a bench vice, holding the tool rigid while both hands control the hammer and the work.
- Turned from solid hardwood to prevent marring or scratching soft precious metals.
- The stepped profile provides four distinct diameters for forming bangles to set sizes.
- A squared tang at one end allows for secure mounting in a standard bench vice.
- Smooth, finished surface allows bangles to be easily worked and removed.
Who it's for
An essential forming tool for UK silversmiths, bench jewellers, and jewellery students working with non-ferrous metals. It is particularly suited to workshops producing bangles and bracelets in consistent, repeatable sizes.
