Jack, It is far harder to do silver work like what you show than the more ornate pieces. A simple band ring, is incredibly hard. It has to be perfect. Way to go, can't wait to see more.

I can feel a silver smithing section coming on for our members. You'll add a silver smithing section but not a tumbling section? What's up with that?
