Class this week, then...

[jetlag]

I have some silver wire left over from making my felt/button bouquet for my wedding. I could have a go with that. I have a mandrel so maybe I'll make a ring!

I also used to make chain maille and have been really tempted to have a go at that again using anodized aluminium, so that's a good idea.

The bench peg is on my Christmas list, so I have to wait for that I don't do waiting very well LOL

Well whatever you come up with it's all good practice

I don't have college tomorrow coz the bastards insist we have a break. At first I didn't give it much thought but now it's really bugging me At least I won't have to do battle with rush hour this week. Every cloud eh?

half term! What am I going to do!!!??? I don't have a torch or bench peg yet (though I do have a saw, files, rawhide mallet) so would be very limited as to what I could.

Withdrawals!

Start learning chainmaille. No need for a torch or pench peg!! Experiment with silver wire.

The Cookson bench peg/anvil clamps onto any table and is only a tenner Would make it a lot easier to use those other things too!

Yep I have one of those too. Its great cos i use my table for other stuff other than jewellery and wouldn't want a bench peg on there permanently as it would get in the way.

Already do chainmail. I used to make armour, too :lol:

bench pegs are cheap and torches not too bad...go for it!

I bought a really nice bench peg for £5.00 last week. It's much sturdier than my original one so I'm gonna stick with it and just keep hold of the anvil bit from the old one for.....anvil stuff

And now I've got class starting in a couple of days and I don't want to go! I like lazing around not really having to speak to anyone

Go! It's so much fun and very inspiring, just seeing what other students no more than a year ahead of me can do
