I did take a short silver smith class this winter, I learned how to calculate out and make bezel settings, How to use a claw setting, sweat soldering and a few other useful things, but for the most part I read books and just play with the materials. <BR/>A few of my fave books are <BR/><BR/>Making Metal Jewelry: Projects, Techniques, Inspiration <BR/><BR/>Jewelry Two Books In One: Projects To Practice & Inspire * Techniques to Adapt to Suit Your Own Designs <BR/><BR/>I also rented a few Tim McCreight videos (and many jewelry making books) from our local library.<BR/><BR/>I hope this helps!Marie Cristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01601162383338200734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19911729.post-42802173096080721072007-02-28T17:05:00.001-08:002007-02-28T17:05:00.001-08:00This is an amazing piece.
