Pricing advice sought by
Craig Cockburn
Hi
My wife is looking to sell some of her handmade jewelry (or jewellery
since we're in Scotland)
I was wondering if there's anyone here who can suggest a guide price for
the UK/US markets and whether it's more useful to attempt to sell solely
via my own site or whether it's also useful to...

Did I miss a clue? by
Carl
Perhaps my training in jewelry repair was lacking.
When the maker puts the karat stamp right in the middle of the shank, is
that his subtle way of saying. "Don't even _think_ about trying to
re-size this thing, I made it out of scrap and it's going to melt on you
no matter what kind of solder...

TIME TO TAKE MATTERS INTO MY OWN HANDS by
[email protected]
Well guys, I bought a beautiful brass pendant, about 2 inches across
from overseas. Beautiful. Just one problem: it hangs upside down. I
figured it would be easy enough for a jeweler to fix it. I figured
they'd just saw the loop off one end and put it on another.

Test for true silver plating? by
Limpy
I just won a "silver-plated" widget on eBay. How can
I test if it's really silver-plated when I get it? Can a
jewelry store tell? Can they do it for free for one
item? Is it an easy and reliable test?
Thanks!

About the matt wax gun by
Paul WIlson
Hey,
I'm thinking of getting a Matt wax gun so I might add a complex sprue
manifold to a thin wax model prior to burnout.
I worry that wax thusly extruded won't stick to my wax model (castaldo
orange wax). No help from the vendor.
Does anyone know if it'll work?. It's not the cheapest thing to...

Just started my own jewelry business... by
SimplyStacy
I just started my own handcrafted jewelry business and set up my
website. Does anyone know any ways to promote a website for free? I
have a very, very small budget and it will defeat the purpose of even
starting the business to have to pay so much for advertising.
Any help would be greatly...

Which Untracht book? by
Bert
If you were going to own only one of Oppi Untracht's books, which
would it be -- "Metal Techniques for Craftsmen" or "Jewelry Concepts
and Technology"? Based on a reading of the Amazon blurbs, I gather
that "Jewelry Concepts and Technology" provides a more comprehensive

Platinum Rings - all the same? by
Toby Newman
My partner would like to buy me a platinum wedding ring but money is
tight.
We've looked in various jewellers in the UK and found the average
price
to be of the region of five or six hundered pounds (sterling).
She's just noticed that Argos (a rather naff high-street shop) sells

disc cutter die - other shapes? by

Hi. I have a disc cutter that cuts various sizes of round discs. It's the
kind that you slide the sheet of metal in and then hit it with a hammer to
punch the disc. I would like to find (or have made) some that would produce
different shapes. My problem is that I don't quite know what to call...
