Brush wheel 3" 4 rows (wood center).

A brush wheel with a 3-inch diameter and 4 rows of bristles, with a wooden center, is used in jewelry making to buff and polish metal surfaces. The bristles of the brush are made from various materials, such as wire or nylon, and can be crimped or twisted for different levels of abrasiveness.

The brush wheel is useful for removing scratches, oxidation, and other surface imperfections from metals like gold, silver, and copper. It is also helpful in creating a smooth, shiny finish on jewelry pieces. This tool is typically used with a polishing compound or a buffing wheel.

One unique use for the brush wheel in jewelry making is for texturing metal surfaces. By lightly pressing the brush wheel onto the metal, it can create a unique texture or pattern. It can also be used to clean hard-to-reach areas of jewelry pieces, such as the crevices of filigree work or between prongs.

A must-have jewelry making item to use alongside the brush wheel is a dust mask to protect against inhaling metal particles during the polishing process.
