You might try contacting Paddy Howe in the Fossil Workshop in Lyme Regis:

He may be able to suggest something.
I see the description includes this advice:
"Any residue can be removed with alcohol."
This conjures up a picture of a glass of wine helping things along :)
Good luck Wallace!
I really enjoy visiting craft fairs and the people who stay in my memory long after the event are those who are working on something, will acknowledge you with a cheery hello,...
How frustrating! I don't have any experience of this, but their website has a link to a video on this:

Perhaps not, but the video on the link I included does :)
Hopefully, between that and your clear description, success will follow. I remember how frustrating it was when I couldn't get mine to...

Many thanks for the additional info Sarah and Dennis :)
I had realised your source was no longer available Dennis, but just wondered if the specific model was apparent from the labelling - there...
Hi Sarah,

Many thanks to Dennis and all other contributors to this thread (and the one...
Those are delightful!
Those are quite striking. Thanks for the links; I enjoyed reading about their design and construction.
Congratulations Wallace! I love your sparkly pin. Now you can open a bottle of the real thing to celebrate.

With best wishes to everyone for a Happy New Year.

Do you have a photo of the finished piece James?
This dragonfly brooch is my “statement” piece so far, as well as employing my favourite technique :)! It certainly elicits a positive reaction whenever I wear it.

Can you imagine if you made a mistake towards the end of all that piercing? I salute your skill James!
Thank you so much James, now I understand! I really appreciate you taking the time to do that :)
This is really interesting, but try as I might I cannot visualise this. Do you perhaps have any photos showing how you set this up James?
Many thanks for sharing your knowledge and for all those...
Congratulations James! It's a pleasure to see such skill and attention to detail.
This is a really helpful topic, as I recently had a go at photo-etching and have a couple of pieces I want to try oxidising. I had been looking for supplies of LOS or Platinol.
I'm keen to avoid...
Thank you for your kind comments Tabby! It was only because the dragonfly brooch elicited such a positive reaction at the fair that I even considered entering it in the competition. My photography...
An interesting range of techniques and fine examples shown!
My favourite technique is still chasing & repousse. Here is a dragonfly brooch which is made from copper and measures 85mm across its...
Hi
Lucky lady! There are so many avenues of interest to explore that it is difficult to suggest appropriate tools and materials. As Dennis suggests, if your girlfriend's creative interests take...
I'm finding this very interesting as I'm currently making a brooch which includes a backing plate with cut-outs as part of the design. I had not heard of this before it was suggested to me, but have...
