I’ve been guiding students in metal ages 12 and up for over a decade. We have made some incredible work– from wedding rings to ritual art objects and more. Selected students can learn many metalsmithing techniques through directed exercises and long-term projects. Some techniques covered include: annealing, texture, cutting with a jeweler’s saw, silver soldering, cutting dies and using a press, forming, riveting, basic stone setting, 3 dimensional forms– like boxes, clasps and hinges, roll printing, basic forging, filing, polishing and patina.
