Fusing silver to copper to make a pendant

[@victoriaharrison-sewell6717]

Very good & so effective. Looking forward to giving it a go, thank you for sharing your techniques, & your lovely work..

Love the texture and of course the skulls!

[@sparklylittlechicken]

Very good video and quality, thanks for sharing!

[@Lovealot_allotment]

That is so cool, love it!

Hej. Great Job. Do you have a link to where you buy your silver / copper solder please ? I have many ideas but i just need the solder. Thanx

[@SoulfulVeg]

Very cool piece.

[@amandathompson4692]

Very nice. You inspire me.

When buying silver chain and it mixed with too much copper does it get black

[@tammygurl64]

Sorry... one more question... Did you use solder to attach the skull or did you somehow fuse it on? My very "inexperienced" thinking is that the skull would've melted (or deformed) if you didn't use solder. There's so much to learn! Thanks! 🙂

What is the measurements of the copper peace thanks

[@Baronstone]

Once you saw the silver begin to melt onto the copper why didn't you stop? At that point you had a solid unbreakable bond between the two of them. So why keep going and turn it into the mess you ended the initial melt with?

[@tammygurl64]

That brilliant! However, you didn't show front and back of the finished work. I'm just starting to learn so I was wondering about the back side. I don't think I saw you fuse silver to the back (or did I miss something?) so did you polish both sides and have a shiny copper back and did you then seal it with anything to prevent tarnish and patina? It's definitely a beautiful piece. I've become so fascinated with metalsmithing. Thanks so much for sharing!

@Angela Marie That's true but there's tons of info and tutorials from YTU (KZbin University - LOL) online where people DO reveal tips. I took a break from silversmithing so although I'm a little beyond beginner in theory (have studied lots) I'm still a beginner in practicing. You can find answers at many jewelry making channels including Andrew Berry's At the Bench channel (free) and he has a weekly live Q& A Session (also free). I used to be a paid subscriber to his online jewelry training and will probably join again once I'm able to have time to make it worth my while. If I experiment with melting silver onto copper, I'll come back and let you know.

@Angela Marie May I ask what you've done so far in silversmithing? The first rings I ever made were made with 935 Argentium Silver because soldering intimidated me and Argentium fuses together so no solder is needed for some things. I love working with fine silver because it also fuses. I tried a solder syringe and prefer wire solder because I can hammer it very thin/flat and snip into tiny pieces that don't roll away. It just seems cleaner to me than paste but it's best to try different methods to see which works best for you. That's my personal opinion and you probably have experimented already. I know how confusing it can be starting out. Good luck in your new, fun, hobby!😊 😊

[@elvisdawson8446]

Why would you fuse it to copper want to just take the silver and make a pen another silver doesn't make sense to me
