Hi,
I am working hard on practicing my soldering technique & one of the projects I have given myself is to work on a pair of silver double loop/hoop earrings as allows me to solder various components such as 2 rings joined as a chain and also soldering on earring posts. However, I feel like I am missing something here as it is extremely difficult to shape the double loop/hoop on a mandrel as they are connected in a chain fashion. Am I doing something wrong or should I keep working on it and it will eventually take shape? Essentially I would like to end up with something like the picture below!
