Frankie G. comment on Help! My Patterns Are Growing...
April 1, 2011

If you use a copy machine always make two copies and do not use the original and a copy. Although you may think that you are reproducing the image the same size oftentimes it is larger than the original by a fraction. This can be an issue, the larger the piece the more it "grows". Hope this helps.

Great for bracelets, April 1, 2011 5 stars
Pros
Sturdy enough to hold its form once work hardened or tumbled. Great for chains or bracelets.		 Cons
If using a torch and soldering you need flux and solder. It develops firescale that requires cleaning in pickle.

Perfect for Earrings, April 1, 2011 5 stars
Pros
Fine silver does not require the use of flux and has the added benefit of not producing firescale! I love this to make earrings and chains. I coil around a dowel, use a jewelers saw to get a clean cut on one side, then hit each coil with a torch and presto...perfect rings! Love that when I order 25 ft it comes as one piece.		 Cons
Although it comes as one piece, it comes rolled on a small spool. Good thing fine silver is soft and easy to straighten.(Just adds and extra step in the process.)
