To make perfect connections you need to practice. This soldering boot camp will offer an opportunity to build and challenge your soldering skills. Spend the evening sweating, picking, chipping, “sticking” and pasting your joints until you become comfortable. We will focus on all of the hard joints and do a little problem solving to find a fresh approach to soldering pins, jump ring, bezels, mismatched pieces, etc. To maximize your time and stay focused on soldering, there will not be a finished product, instead we will focus on repetition to create muscle memory. Students are encouraged to bring any additional pieces they would like help with.
