I am on a three day course as I wanted to improve on my techniques. Or, really, I wanted to learn at the hands of someone and their guidance on claw and Rex settings. There is less call for rex ones and the pre made mounts are easy to purchase and solder onto work. However, I have had some commissions to do some, so it was an opportunity not to miss.
First things first, the tutor Penny was on the course that Carole and I attended. Well, that is fun!
Secondly, oh my finger is sore from using a bullstick!
And....
Thirdly, if you go on a similar course, pack a mini workshop to include as many tools as possible, even files, soldering tweezers, pliers, saw frame etc. the course cost wasn't too bad for three full days and an evening.
Penny is superb and a delight to have instructions from.
I have made a Rex setting... Totally messed up, but learned so much as a result.
Fancy claw setting tomorrow, can't wait!
