Thanks again. I haven't put any attachments on mine. I hear that nose clips are good to put on the hose next to the joints maybe to stop it bending and tearing after a while of working... Also I...
Thank you China. I really appreciate it. I leave mine in the shed in the garden. Do you think the freezing weather or very hot weather could be a problem?
Thank you
I read on news online that there has been a lot of gas explosions of some kind, It made me think about the safety of the propane gas cylinders. I always make sure the room is ventilated and I keep it...
Thanks experts for your time. :~:

Hi there.. I havent used Auroflux before, how do I use it? I see here it says a little spray bottle, maybe not plastic? Also if not a spray bottle do I dip in the liquid with a designated brush for...
Thank you very much. Very useful.
OK thanks. I think she said she has insurance at the shop now i recall. I suppose I'm asking to make sure I'm going about this the right way!
Any idea of good insurance companies to cover my jewellery items that are left in someone's shop as sale or return? I have tried TH March but they only cover theft by force, not if someone puts items...
Do you know any good insurance companies to cover jewellery items as sale or return on someone's premises?
James, Just wondered how you harden and temper them afterward, and can I use a regular file to shape the end of silver steel? Also if I cut it into three, do I do that with a regular jewellery saw? ...
Hello forum, just wondered, for chasing and repousse I want to file some straight line making tools and slightly curved... I think I can buy steel rods and then file the end that I want. Any ideas?...
I made a mistake with me stone setting and I might just glue the stone in for extra support!
I wonder what glue is best to use? I have UHU I'm giving that a try.. is it any good anyone know?
Can i use any charcoal? I have self igniting charcoal which I could ground up perhaps.. or there is activated charcoal for teeth whitening.. think that's any good?

Ok no! I am not sure I could deal with that! Not enough patience! :-"

Probably an obvious answer but I don't know the best way of how to get the new block of black pitch into the chasing and repousse bowl I have bought. I suppose once its in I would warm it up so that...

Fingers crossed!
