Virtual Two day Demonstration Workshop using the Zoom Platform
Virtual Two day Demonstration Workshop using the Zoom Platform
June 3 & 10 | Time: 1:00-3:00p.m. ET
Transform tweezers and round nose pliers into more practical chain making tools.
Discover tricks to pull and anneal thin wire as well as twist them together between two pieces of wood to create a textured wire that is used in some of the chains.
We will go through the fabrication of five different chains.
Chain #1- “double S”
Chain #2- “Kona”
Chain #3- “Double Kona”
Chain #4- “Twist”
Chain #5- “Yao”
Each chain will be made out of thicker copper wire than usually used, as well as bigger loops. This will help to visualize and understand the chain structure. We will then make a thinner and smaller version in silver (approximately one inch long).
