Hi!
I became obsessed with opal cutting this year, and actually just finished a class at William Holland for Opals. I've been learning silver smithing as well... just obsessed with all of it!
I've never used a forum before, but I love the idea of a place dedicated to these crafts and this community. I do already need some help and advice- I think I'm looking for a pixie to buy, but I did hear that they're made in China now, so I'm curious if it's still a good investment...?
excited to be here, hopefully I can figure out how to use this forum!

Hi Amy Lou. If you’ve never participated in a forum before, you picked a great one to start with. You will get lots of answers quickly here. There might be differing opinions in the answers you get, but that will be your job to sort them out. Welcome to the forum!

Welcome from just north of the border! (Tennessee)
I took my first class at WH earlier this year in silver smithing. Absolutely loved it! Can't help you with the Pixie question. I've got a Genie that I bought second hand.
