#solderingpractice

Build your own festive tree to brighten up your Christmas decoration and enhance your soldering skills at the same time!

This was a serious B to solder! And right after I'd managed to solder on the last tube...one of the claws came off from the marquise seat 🤦‍♀️ . . Still, all's well that ends well. Now all soldered (with some partial bits without solder) and next it's time for sanding, polishing and setting the stones 😁 . . Despite the difficulties of this project, I'm looking forward to making a couple more designs I have in mind and I've already ordered some more marquise stones 🥰 . . What has been your favourite project this term so far? . . . . #jewellersacademy #fantasychicaccessories #solderingpractice #marquisering #handmadejewellerymalta (at Malta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbNFxkDseD-/?utm_medium=tumblr

I ran out of damn butane before I could finish. Gonna fill out the copper blobbies, and file away the corners and smooth the edges out, have a copper clay bail I need to solder on, then pop the stone in, and bam. Finally getting decent with the metalworking, as long as I can work "looking shitty" into the theme as a positive lol #copperjewelry #jewelrydesign copper #crazylaceagate #wip #solderingpractice
