What can I do with a bocfil?
The bocfil is ideal for cutting custom shapes out of metal plates, making openwork pendants, creating decorative patterns or preparing elements for shaping and assembly. It can also be used to contour a piece, open apertures or work complex contours on handmade jewelry projects. Used before filing and polishing, it is a key step in obtaining clean, well-defined pieces, whether for necklaces, bracelets, earrings or personalized accessories.

To change the blades, simply loosen the butterfly screws on the saw frame, insert the blades, then tighten.
Be careful to use the saw blade in the right direction: the teeth must face downwards.
Tip: run your finger over the blade. If it catches, it's not good: change direction!
You can coat the blade with beeswax to make it glide more easily and wear less quickly.
