Wow! It's beautiful

Great twist. I need to try this myself. Some ideas. 1. You do not need to melt ends. You can twist them. Melting silver is possible with just propane, but melting copper and bronze requires oxygen. 2. Use copper, brass and silver(plated) wire for colors.

I sort of agree with you… I first learned how to fuse metal with bronze (thinking about a failed attempt at casting bronze). I regularly fused bronze with a propane torch and could be sure of a good result each time. Copper was a very different matter…I could occasionally manage it but not often or reliably. Sterling silver I could also fuse with a propane torch. I invested in a Smith’s Little Torch (oxygen and propane) and can now reliably fuse Copper, though it tends to leave a rough surface compared with the sterling silver or Bronze (I’ve used Phosphor Bronze in the past, now I believe that what I have is simple, ancient formula bronze). The small tips and high heat on the Smith’s Little Torch enable a much more deliberate approach than the big Sievert I was using. I’ve even fused copper and sterling silver into two lightweight rings, one very heavy one and a heavy armring. It was such a pain to do that I probably won’t bother again! Fusing the metal provides a wonderful selling point-potential customers wonder how on Earth all the strands come seamlessly into one solid piece. Something I learned more recently. Fusing the metal, effectively making part of it liquid, really interferes with the crystalline structure of the metal and it tends to be brittle, giving problems forging it. Leave it to cool to room temperature then bring it back up to cherry red to annealers it. Leave it to cool to black heat, quench and pickle (if silver, you can just quench with bronze and copper). To my knowledge, none of the above works with brass because of the zinc in it!

[@myrnaroman9611]

Is beautiful design..But for a bangle is too soft 😊

[@SontailsDesenha910]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤

[@Gem666a]

Le tressage est joli mais j'aime pas du tout les embouts 😢

[@alanrobinson6257]

surely the silver is too soft and the bangle will fall off due to not strength, its too pure

[@janbounds911]

It work hardens as you go, so i don't find this to be true.
