    Default B457ARD Soldering !!

    Hello ...

    Its been one of those days. I have a been given a few pieces of assyed 9ct, that I have melted to make into a bangle 2.5mm thick 5.5mm wide...But can I solder it so it stays together !!

    What I mean is, when I have soldered it together, then pigskin/hide malleted it back to round, once I take it off and give it a gentle squeeze to oval the bangle, it snaps apart. On 3 occassions , it snapped open when I gave the first strike with my hide mallet....I'm doing this on a wooden bangle former.

    All afternoon I've tried to solder it and shape but it won't stay soldered. I've even tried 18ct but nothing.

    Anyy suggestions ?

    Thank you in advance
