Have you wanted to learn to solder but perhaps been afraid of the tools involved? No doubt a torch with a flame reaching 12 inches can be intimidating, as well as learning to create with a tool that reaches temperatures of 900 degrees. There's a lot to learn to safely use these tools, but once you have the information I think you'll be surprised as how easy it really is. Local Artist Dede Warren will share her knowledge of soldering on a variety of mediums. This workshop will give you knowledge of what you can and cannot solder, the tools and supplies involved and how to use them, and a variety of ways in which to use this skill.

Our focus in this hands on workshop will be learning the basics of soldering with a soldering iron as well as using a small household torch. Dede will supply the materials to create several soldered charms along with using a variety of patinas. This class is rich in soldering techniques, and our focus will be on learning the art of soldering.
