SynopsisJewelry Lab uses brevity to ignite a passion for working the metals processes and learning about all the ways metal can be used. It provides aspiring metalsmiths and jewelry makers a way to learn fundamental techniques that is quick and fun. In addition to the basic skills such as sawing, drilling, soldering, and finishing, the book covers texturing, etching, rolling, coloring, patinas, forming, connections, findings, solders, bezels, rivets, and other experimental techniques. This is not a project book; rather, it is an approachable, unintimidating workbook that breaks metals processes down into very specific experiments, such as texturing or plastic deformation of metal, with no goal in mind other than to experience how metal moves. Readers learn to understand more about metal, how to master it, and gain a deep, thoughtful underlying appreciation for process and method, becoming entranced with finely crafting objects with great care., Jewelry Lab uses brevity to ignite a passion for working the metals processes and learning about all the ways metal can be used.

A good book for those who want to explore metalsmithing.
This book is packed with so many different "experiments". It has a good variety of labs to do, 52 in all. I really like the book's approach to exploring different methods from texturing to patina to forming to connections.to soldering.... You get the picture. I do wish that it was more detailed with the instructions and have more pictures. Still this is an action packed book. Beginners and Novices will be able to figure things out. After all, this is experimentation - don't be afraid to try. It will keep you busy for a long time.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
