In this class you will learn how to set cabochons with prongs. You are welcome to make earrings, a pendant, a pin or components for a bracelet. We will not be making cuffs or rings in this class. We will be soldering in this class, so it is a good opportunity to develop soldering skills.

Pre-requisite: Knowledge of how to saw, file and drill sheet metal. Basic soldering skills.

What to bring to class:

• Cabochon(s) - the size depends on the scale of the piece you want to design. (Available in class for sale)
• 18 gauge wire
• Note book to take notes
• Permanent ink ultra fine pen
• Copy of Seller's permit (optional)
• Sheet metal (gauge will vary depending on what you are making (I will have some available for purchase. You might contact me several weeks in advance to make sure we have what you want).

PLEASE WEAR CLOSE TOED SHOES TO CLASS

You will not need to bring tools to class. As a matter of fact, I am requesting that you not bring tool cases with you so that floor space is clear. Your work station will have all the tools you need for this class.
