Great Deal

This post is for all my students or anybody who own Lindstrom tools. I have had the same 5 pairs of Lindstrom tools for going on 20 years and using them nearly every day of those years. They have allowed me to make hundreds of great jewelry pieces but after all the years of so much use the grips were staring to fall off every time I picked them up, I couldn't keep the springs on them any more and OMG the state of the tips on all the tools looks very worn...I'm talkin big chucks of metal out of the cutters and bent round nose tips so bad they didn't meet together all the way.
A few weeks ago I sent all 5 pairs in to Lindrom and had them reconditioned and WOW!! they look brand new and beautiful. We all know that each pair of pliers or cutters will run you about $55-$65 each and who can afford to have them replaced? granted I have been using mine for nearly 20 years and so you know they must be high quality to get as many years of heavy use as I did before I found out I could get them reconditioned like new for only $10.00 a pair, that's $55.00 for ALL 5 pairs.
