i love using stones in my work, they add depth of meaning and a special beauty... i decided i wanted to be able to set cup bezels... and so i did...

solder can be intimidating - there are all different kinds: paste, wire, sheet... they melt at different temperatures to allow for the creation of multiple joins... 

look for a prize related to this as a part of june's art spark!
