For Virgins and Not-So-Virgins, this

and tricks of Soldering as you create Charms! In this class we will make individual charms,
3-dimensional charms, charms using
beveled glass, found objects, bubbles, double-bubbles, and marbles. A special
side-bar of glass-cutting for those who
want to know it all! You should complete
about 5 charms - more if you work quickly.
Bracelet and assorted glass included.

SUPPLY LIST:

BASIC SUPPLIES FOR ALL WORKSHOPS:
For all workshops, you must bring:
Pliers (one Flat-Nose or Chain-Nose, one Bent-Nose, one Round-Nose)
*Home Depot has a 5-pack of red-handled pliers for $10 that has the *linesman* pliers I like*
Wire-Cutters (small)
NOTE: I have enough Metal Cookie Sheets now - no need to bring one
Scissors
Cutting Pad or Work Surface
Hand-Towel (at least 1...prefer 2) a washcloth is too small
Pencil or Pen

Soldering Equipment:
As for supplies, I will have soldering equipment that can happily be shared
(you do not need to bring any of the below if you prefer not to).
However, if you have your own equipment and would like to use it, bring it. This includes:

Soldering Iron
Soldering Iron Stand
Rheostat
Solder
Tips in different sizes

**I will also have Flux and Sponges to share ... no need for you to travel with it unless you want to solder in your hotel room :-)

 

Soldering For Virgins - Special Supplies:
1.) Artwork to put between the glass (for both the front & back) in assorted small sizes as follows:
1" x 1" square, 3/4" x 1" rectangle, 1/2" x 1" rectangle, and a few round that range from 1/2" to 1". Extra artwork is always a good idea. (if you do not have pre-made artwork, we will just use plain paper or some papers I have since this is a soldering-technique class, not a project class).
2.) A few dimensional objects such as a crystal, scrabble letter, marble, etc.
*IMPORTANT - do not use glossy or satin finish images as they will distort under the glass*
3.) A base-metal bracelet is included, but you may upgrade to a sterling silver 8" toggle bracelet for $50 during class.
