Are you ready to master your soldering?
We know that when learning silver jewellery making soldering is a key skill to build up in order to create more intermediate and advanced designs.
So this class was designed as an intensive day to push your soldering skills up a level.
This class is an Intermediate level class and all students do need to take the Beginners Silver Jewellery I (or equivalent) before taking this class.
When working in silver jewellery, soldering is one of the most essential and challenging skills. To help you deal with this we have a special intensive soldering day one-day workshop focusing exclusively on soldering.
Get expert help with your soldering including:
- Making multiple joints in the same piece (working with different types of solder when needed)
- Techniques for soldering more challenging and complex joints
- Using the correct equipment and tools for the soldering job
- Heat conduction and tips for your soldering
- Troubleshooting any issues that may arise
This is an intermediate level class, and we will start from the basics of soldering and work upwards to your level. As this is a technique focus class you may not making any finished pieces but will have a bunch of soldered items to take away and remind you of the processes used.
These can then be incorporated into new designs at home.
