Silversmithing Guide For The New Silversmith

Hi everyone!

I'm so happy you're here and ready to take the next step to learning about silversmithing with me.

I have made some pages that I wish I had when I was starting out- the confusing stuff cleared up to make ordering silver and choosing the right thing for your project much easier.

Here you can find the following information as simplified and helpful as possible:

• Websites to learn
• Silversmithing buying guide for the new silversmith
• Beginner silversmithing tools checklist
• What is dead soft metal?
• What is half hard metal?
• So, you're confused about solder?
• Bezel wire fraction to decimal conversion chart
• Bezel / strip size conversion chart
• Which size saw blade for what gauge metal?

These are all very basic and straight to the point. You can print these out and make a little booklet to leave in your studio, or use them for handouts when you teach, it's up to you.

I'm just happy to help however I can.

Happy Silversmithing!
