Love these!! You are great with your teaching too!!!

Wow, that was incredible, and I thank you for sharing! The most amazing thing for me was that you can stick pins in the kiln brick to hold things in place... That's a total gamechanger!

Hi I’ve tried twice with the solder not taking. Does it make a difference what the flatware is made of?

[@FlatwearableArtisanJewelry]

There are several important steps that must be followed for successful soldering. A joint that has no gaps. This means no light can be seen when looking through the join edges. Clean surfaces free from rust, dirt, fingerprints, etc. Your goal is to heat the piece, not the solder. If the piece isn't heated sufficiently the solder won't flow or it will ball up. Sufficient use of flux.

What did you clean them with prior to soldering?

[@FlatwearableArtisanJewelry]

Wash in soapy water then a soak in the pickle pot.

[@oliviasantora1949]

Can u use silver plated flatware?

[@FlatwearableArtisanJewelry]

These are all silverplated

[@IWH777]

QUESTION::: CAN YOU USE A SODDERING IRON TO DO THIS OR DO YOU HAVE TO USE A FLAME????

[@FlatwearableArtisanJewelry]

A flame is best.
