I finally started on the locket! This was a project that was taught in Week 0 which I wasn’t informed about, the box clasp went smoothly so I figured I’d work on this before the 13 stone ring - the final project for this term.
I actually started doming last week so these photos are from 2 workshop classes.
This week’s wrap up:
• Used an oval doming block
• Used a gaping file to make a groove for the chenier
• Used a mechanical pencil lead to hold the hinge pieces in place for soldering
• Used a rouge and methylated spirit mix as silver solder resist
