My
"studio" is my kitchen so it would be convenient!

A couple of points of safety here...

1. Don't reuse the pot for anything you'll be consuming. And don't toss it
into the dishwasher with your other dishes.

2. Keep it covered when you're not using it, to avoid contamination, and
well ventilated when it's hot. Be careful about any type of splashes/spills
into food preparation areas, including if you're using your kitchen sink to
fill/discard it.

2A. Remain alert for things that can react with acids and keep them well
away... baking soda leaps immediately to mind.

3. Are you SURE you want your kitchen as your studio??? There are a lot of
chemicals, metal filings, and nasty bits of particulate matter that are
generated as the typical silversmith works -- whether it's polishing using a
rotary tool or filing edges with a hand file. And those things, if they get
into food prep, can be pretty nasty. Some can be downright dangerous.

There's also the inconvenience of setting up/taking down each time you want
to transition between work space and food space. To do that properly and
safely will mean quite a bit of cleaning time.

If there is an alternate space that you can use, you might be much better
served.
