I completed these after following rockjunquie tutorial. As you can see the quality of the wrap is a big improvement from my previous wraps, especially the bail. There's still alot of room for improvement [/URL

rockjunquie I'm gonna look for silver, gold, copper and some LOS/polish. I love that copper patina look. I also took notice of soldering in your tute. I have a very good soldering station and if I could solder other related decor it would add a nice touch. The idea of tasteful additions when it adds to the piece is definitely an eye catcher.

Sounds like you are all in!!! Awesome! Soldering jewelry is different from using a soldering iron. Silver soldering uses a torch. Which do you have?

I actually have both types of solder. Although my torch may be a little to big for brazing such small wire.
