metalsmithing day workshops

these are from one of the most fun day workshops I hosted at the studio in 2009...the workshop was Tube Setting.

it's always important to me that (in addition to learning the skill) everyone has a completed piece to take home.

we started with a flattened nugget of recycled silver scrap,

soldeded a ring to the back, soldered on a tube

(a couple friends added some creative little ebmellishments),

drilled a seat for the stone with a setting bur,

burnished the tube down to set the stone

and VIOLA!

magic with metal.

a silver pendant with a sparkly gem.

anyone can do it, really.

come join me, more workshops are coming in 2010
