Intro to Jewelry Soldering.

This is the Basic startup class for Soldering Jewelry in the Machining Area. We will spend 30 minutes on basic safety and area requirements. Then expect an hour of hands on setup and soldering a copper ring.

I’m going to limit the number of students to 3 , so each person get enough hands on time to be able to feel comfortable soldering with a torch.

No special PPE is required

Please do NOT bring your own jewelry to solder, the time helping you could impact other students.
