If you are just starting out as a beginner working in a home studio, this workshop is for you! Join resident metalsmith Francesca Watson for a fun, two-days all about fabricating and sizing rings. We'll start out with simple stackers, build on that skill with a fun fidget ring, and finish up with a simple prong-set band (picture coming soon). You'll learn about making sure your finished rings will fit (yes, there's a little math involved!), and explore the capabilities of the flex-shaft, including drilling and using burs. Along the way, we'll discuss the properties of sterling silver; why flux is important and which ones work best for silver; how to get a professional finish on your piece; and much more. And as an added bonus, you'll get 30 days access to recordings of all demos ... at no additional cost!
This is a 2-day event, Saturday - Sunday October 18-19 from 9:30am to 5:00pm each day.
