What we'll do
ALL CLASSES ARE AVAILABLE AS AN ONLINE, DISTANCE-LEARNING OPTION. PLEASE DM TO DISCUSS! PRE-REQUISITE :: Jewelry Soldering for Beginners or practical experience with a jewelry torch This is not an entry-level class :: Tube-setting is a stylish way to incorporate round, faceted gemstones in your designs. It’s also the gateway to more complex stone setting, so warn your friends and family that your “Craft Crack” is ratcheting-up a another notch!! In this 4-hour class, students will learn to measure, cut and solder the tube to a curved ring band, cut a seat for a faceted CZ and secure the stone in the piece. If time allows, the Instructor will also demonstrate a telescoping-tube setting. Expect to have fun, meet interesting people and leave with the skills & knowledge to work independently!
