Soldering Beyond the Basics

Joe Silvera's follow-up to the very successful Soldering Made Simple focuses on practicing and expanding on the skills introduced in his first book. Soldering Beyond the Basics focuses on subjects that beginning metalsmiths need to know such as the next step in torch setup, how to solder with various metals, keeping metal clean with less polishing work, how to set stones and found objects, and how to fuse metal and use sterling silver scraps. Joe's trademark of complete instructions, detailed photos, and unique designs make this book approachable for all jewelry makers, plus this can be done very easily in your own home.
