Join Eve Huggins at ABAM for stacking rings workshop on Saturday, 8/15! Learn to make these simple rings and gain confidence in basic silver smithing skills, including designing, sizing, filling, soldering, and finishing. Designing: You’ll get to choose from a variety of sterling silver wire to make 3 rings. Sizing: Learn how much metal to use to get the size of ring you want. Filling: Learn to appreciate the smooth edges by experiencing how to do that, make your soldering more successful, and the product more appealing. Soldering: You’ll get to melt metal in order to make a flawless seam and how to solder more efficiently. Finishing: You’ll get to make it shiny, matte, or textured to fit whatever mood comes along.
