Jewellery Soldering - TYraditional Indian Technique

[patni]

I have made a small video on gold soldering . This is a traditional technique followed in India.
DO have a look and let me know if this is how soldering is done in your part of the country..

This video is in Hindi with slightly English voice over , also with little subtitles. But good enough for you to understand by just my actions..

Dear Patni. Thank you for sharing your video. The differences are that:
Most of us buy solder strips ready made, although they still need some extra rolling down.
I note that your pallions are cut very neatly, just with shears. I find they twist up doing that, so I make the long cuts with a saw and only the cross cuts with shears.
Then there is a a choice of how to place them. Some use tweezers, but I am happier with a fine brush. Dennis
