Silver scrap into something:)




Ring and Pendant from silver scraps. Little bit limited due to torch size and other equipment. Been a long while since I've done any metalwork or soldering. Funny because that's all I did for 3 years straight ( degree). I really did feel clumsy to begin with, especially soldering...this was so automatic to me at one time. Hey it's all back....like riding a bike:) And I managed to solder the thinnest, tiniest piece with out unsoldering and melting other parts at the same time. ( Without any "Rouge" or protection stuff for those vulnerable parts. YES!!!!!!:) It was a make or break point in the project so that is a definate happy YESS! Dance round the room type of YES:)
* should mention this is how Silver looks before finishing ...filing and polishing.

bench Bench BENCH:)


O.k nothing to really shout about. Especially to those out there who have a full jewellery studio up and running. But after not soldering a piece of metal for some years now ..I really had to start up something. Even with the smallest torch and tinyiest "pickle"pot. So with the scrap's I have I decided to make do and see what will happen.

Started a couple of items...then find out what u immediately miss!! It's amazing what u need really ...rolling mill, vice, bench to hammer on, DECENT TORCH!

But the bench..it's here...hopefully the ball will start rolling:) One day ..the studio!
