marsalv Posted November 7, 2022 #276 Posted November 7, 2022 Fantastic and inspiring work. Have you tried using silver solder paste instead of solid solder for silver soldering? Dosing solder paste is much easier, even when adding a small amount. albert and mtaylor 2 Quote

Innisfree Posted January 2, 2023 #295 Posted January 2, 2023 I believe the white rectangles you are seeing, druxey, are actually brass bands around the circular ends of the axels. druxey, billocrates, davyboy and 1 other 4 Quote

giampieroricci Posted January 3, 2023 Author #297 Posted January 3, 2023 as innisfree said these are not rectangles: it is the circle of axes made from a small brass rod; later they will be burnished, if I can billocrates, mtaylor and druxey 3 Quote

I really enjoy your work, it is a wonder to behold. you are too good to me! As Socrates used to say, I know I don't know, and for every job I approach I never know if it will be acceptable or if I will have to start over again. I see so many works on this forum that are truly unparalleled works of art and I am enraptured by the skills of so many of you, and I wonder: how do you do it? it is true, sometimes I am amazed by what comes out of my hands, but rarely! bruce d, Peanut6, billocrates and 6 others 9 Quote
