She’s incredible and should be crowned the queen of jewelry making.
I learned more through this video than I did in two 15 week courses at a local art school. Thank you!
Wow, that is awesome. So glad we could be so helpful! Make sure to subscribe if ya wanna learn more :)
I really agree with you.
You are really amazing. After 1 year of struggle, I landed on your tutorial, and now i feel like i am graduated in soldering. Thanks a ton. 🙏
Love from India ❤
Sweet! Glad we could help :)
Kate is a ROCKSTAR!!! I feel confident enough to try soldering again. Thank you!
Absolutely the best, most thorough and most professional lesson I've watched on RUclips.
I completely agree. A proper lesson designed to teach and not just chopped together. Nice down to earth presenting too :)
Agree.
This tutorial was absolutely amazing for us new metalsmiths. I am a jewelry designer with beads and wire weaves and now I feel I need to move on to metal sheets and soldering, I have saved your video for future reference. I just loved it, thank you so much.
Best soldering video yet ! Thanks for being honest and free with your info.
You bet! thanks :)
Thank you SO MUCH! I'm Peruvian and at this time I can't afford a jewelry lesson, this helps me a lot! God bless you! ❤️🌹
Thanks so much! I learned so many techniques from this one video. The pendant is beautiful! I never would have expected those metal pieces to end up being such a high-end piece of jewelry! I've been trying to decide whether to get into metalsmithing or not by watching lots of videos. This one is the first I've watched that makes me think I just may be able to do it while enjoying the process! I'm so happy I watched it! Thanks again!!
Ms Kate the best teacher in jewelry making world hands down ! Informative , carefully put together and thorough video
She's the real deal! :)
I love your hair! Kinda makes me want to have this cut again!
thank you! this was the best and most comprehensive tutorial I've come across so far. your pace is excellent and gives me enough time to comprehend what it is you're talking about. I'm taking a silversmithing class now and we only covered a small portion of what you talked about in the beginning. thank you!
Kate your lesson was long but worth every minute. I just started working with copper tubing for making bracelets and now I am looking forward to trying other metals. What a great class. You encourage patience at each step and that was a great part of your class.
Thanks for the amazing feedback Fujie! We really appreciate it! Make sure to subscribe to our youtube channel for more jewelry making vids!!! goo.gl/29bmpC
Amazing tutorial, great detailed explanation. I have been soldering for two years but this tutorial opened my eyes to a few new things. Thank you for the very high quality lesson :)
First of I have to thank Beaducation.com for this training and then congratulate Kate for the excellent presentation. Vassilis from Greece
Thanks for the double compliment!!! oh and, if you wanna learn more, make sure to subscribe goo.gl/3ErJzq ...that is if you haven't already :)
I did this in high school jewelry class I am 58 now thinking about how things have changed you are an awesome teacher I watched from beginning to the end thank you so much.
This was a great refresher reminding me of the important points of the beginning metalsmithing class I took back in 2011.
Wow. What a great class. You are the best instructor I've seen...thorough and easy to understand. You make me want to get started right away!
(However it looks like I have to buy a few things first!) 😳 LOL .I had already downloaded your class on choosing the correct torch, so have to apply it all. I have the Dremel already just need all the rest. Have been making bead and stone jewelry plus wire, but wanted to be more creative. With this knowledge I can go to a higher level so thank you for that. Will follow you anywhere. 😊
Yeah Gale! Go for it...fire up a torch, it's so fun. Thanks so much for the compliments!
thank you! this was the best and most comprehensive tutorial I've come across so far.
thank you, thank you, thank you...what a wonderful time well spent.
This video and the other beaducation videos are such a gift to a beginner like me! Thank you so much.
Just WOW! What a fantastic video! I am so happy to have found this. Immediately bought BOTH of your books! Thank you so much!
Sweet! Glad you found it useful! Check out the learn page on our site for more info - www.beaducation.com/soldering
This is a great soldering tutorial, thank you so much!
Kate, you are one of if not THE best teacher I have ever run across. You and Cindy Pankopf (sp?) both have a teaching style that is concise and thorough. I have your books and every video of you I can find (two of them on Craftsy) and will hopefully get a chance to get more. As for all these comments about you using the word ‘lead’ instead of iron for non ferrous - “folks - she meant iron but lead slipped out because it happens to all of us!” I’ve heard you talk about this before and you used the correct word then, so it’s not like you didn’t know the difference! Right? Sheesh! Thank you thank you thank you, for your amazing teaching, your beautiful smile and spirit and your generous willingness to share your expertise so that people like me can learn and enjoy this wonderful craft! I consider you m6 mentor!
You are an exceptionally gifted teacher. Thank you, I learned so much!
I'm a beginner, and i live in Canada! So far, all this stuff comes to about a thousand bucks up here! not including the fume extractor! Great video though!!
Awesome class, thank you so much. Learned a whole lot :) Now I can get soldering...
Yeah get to it girl! Thanks for the feedback!
Excellent class - best I have seen. Thanks so much.
Fabulous. Thank you.
So much useful information in one video! And everything is explained in a very approachable manner. Thank you for this video! ❤️
Thank you Kate, very informative !
Gosh, this is a well done video! Thank you!
Sweet! That is what we like to hear! Thanks so much for the compliment.
You are Brilliant!
Thank you for the amazing class.
Easy to understand tutorial, well explained.
Ms. Kate you are the best ! Awsome teacher
Thanks so much for the compliment. I will make sure to pass it on to Kate! oh and, if you wanna learn more, make sure to subscribe goo.gl/3ErJzq ...that is if you haven't already :)
Actually, nonferrous means it doesnt have iron in it, not lead.
Ferrous metals have iron in them and are magnetic. Brass, silver and copper are nonferrous metals.
Excellent Instructor and you teach an easy way thank you so much for sharing your knowledge to us thank you so much again
Thank you. Very helpful.
Thank you for sharing all of this information! 💙
Great tips again. Curls in the solder is cool. I use coloured sharpies, but I will incorporate curls.
Thanks! We love that there is always a new tip or technique to learn, even for the experienced maker. :)
This video is awesome. So much good information. I just wish I’d found it earlier!
excellent explanation, thanks for sharing your knowledge
AMAZING VIDEO! THANK YOU!
Woohooo, thanks for the feedback...makes our day!
Impressive..! Thank you
Thank you So much 😊
This was great! Your explanations and descriptions are really good!
Thanks! Thanks for taking the time to send us this feedback!
More Kate! More Kate! xoxo
I am learning I loved this video!
Awesome! Thank you!
very good, indeed.
great class!!
Thanks Carli!
Excellent
great video learning tool
I wish you would have shown the finished pendant on either a chain or leather cord. I would appreciate seeing what you would choose to give this pendant its best look. That is where I have an issue after making a pendant. I have a hard time deciding "what" to hang it on as not to take away from the beauty of the pendant, but to enhance it. Thank you
great 😊
wow! what a great video from beginning to end. I had to watch this just for some added courage before I begin my project. I have a quick question how can you tell when brass is annealed?
Well I recommend you check out the annealing class. We cover annealing for different metals. There are tips and trick in the video to help you know when your annealing is complete. Check it out. Link below!

Would be nice to have a similar class using copper, there are no copper soldering classes on RUclips all you will find is for plumbers use.
That was an awesome class and thank you very much for the great information, your way of teaching and explaining is great,
I saw your arm that's wounded by the torch It really hurt,
I wanted to ask about a way to protect the piece, you were faster 😁
Do you have any class for plating?
Or one piece been plated with different material?
I have liked, subscribed and saved your video.
Thank you very much again
Thanks so much for the feedback! No, sorry, we don't have any classes on plating.
Great video, Thanks! to solder copper on copper do you use the same type of soldering wire/sheet as for silver? thanks again
There is such thing as copper solder, but it isn't a perfect color match, it comes out like dark grey. I usually just use my silver solder because that is what I have on hand and I just remove it with a pin polisher if it seeps out and shows where I don't want it to.
Hey Sooooo good to find you! I am
In Brazil-Paraty! I lov to dive w U! Tks!*!*
Hi!! I wanted to know which metal stamps were used to stamp the sterling silver ring/bail. Thanks!!
It looks like we used the Branch Border stamp: www.beaducation.com/p/5152-metal-stamping-tools-symmetrical-branch-border-metal-design-stamp-beaducation-original and the asterisk www.beaducation.com/pc/98-metal-stamping-tools-metal-design-stamps?utf8=%E2%9C%93&qry=&choices%5B97%5D=on&sort_order=Newest

So whats with argentium sterling silver? can you solder it?
Really good video and good explanation! :)
Hi Trisha, We are not familiar with argentium sterling silver. We do know that is doesn't tarnish, and is fuse-able. It's definitely intriguing!
Hi! First of all, thank you so much for these videos. I learn so much with you, guys! Now, I have a question. On the bigger pieces, is that possible to glue them together? (using E6000 - industrial stregth adhesive, for example) I know it says it takes 24 to 72 hours for maximum bond strength so that is a disadvantage, but would that be the only disadvantage? Would that be as strong as soldering big pieces?
I would say that that the drying process of the glue is an accurate disadvantage. Soldering is pretty instant and probably a stronger hold. But I can't say that there is a rule against gluing. Total personal preference.
Why do you need flux, if it's already in the paste mixture? Did you use it to prevent fire scale?is it better to use a tiny chip of solder, for the two sides of the bail, and heat it from below, so it pulls it through the seem, and there'd be no overflow? I get to messy with paste. Maybe I need more practice.
yes, in this case practice makes perfect!!! You can use either wire or paste solder. I sometimes have the same experience as you where the paste gets messy, but Kate is a pro with it. So maybe it just comes down to personal preference. And yes we do use flux to help prevent fire scale.
how would I go about soldering another piece of metal onto the surface of a signet ring, if I want to make a two-tone signet ring? Is that a too advanced process? I'm hoping to be using brass as the base and copper as the rounded square at the top!
Best regards
I am not familiar with signet rings but the process of soldering applies to all kinds of things. The key is getting a clean and solid connection for the solder to run on and "bind".
How did you decide which solder to use on that piece? You used all 3, but I'm not sure why you used each where you used it. Thanks
Hi Laura. Sorry for the late reply. The three solders melt at different temperatures. So you use them in a certain order (for multiple solder joints) to avoid a solder step, reflowing the solder from the step before it.
Kate, loving this youTube video regarding soldering, where is it that you purchased your cupronil. Looked at Home Depot and another similar place here in Sacramento but no luck? Could it be a banned substance here in California ?
Here ya go www.beaducation.com/p/6286-jewelry-making-tools-cupronil-flux-and-fire-scale-preventative
Is there any reason that to use one over another. Can you use which on you what at all times?
Hi Lorrie. Can you be more specific? What are you referring to when asking about one over the other? Thanks :)
Hi Kate! I love your tutorials! I followed your tutorial step by step but I didn't have the hard solder. Will that be a reason why my solder didn't stick? I tried everything according to your instructions and it didn't take.
Usually that means the metal wasn't clean, or that you never really got it up to temp so that it properly flowed. Hope this helps!
Usually that means that the piece was dirty or you didn't actually get the temp high enough to make the solder flow properly. Hope this helps!
I love your tutorials: you are very concise in your instruction and information. Just one thing I wonder about, why do Americans say 'sawder' instead of solder? That's an L in the middle there, not a W :-)
That is a darn fine questions Lynette! Just another abuse of the fine English language! :)
Beaducation Not an abuse at all...😊 Solder originates from the French soudur. As in so many other words...(Marquis...French: Mar key vs British: Mar kwess), someone heard it incorrectly and taught others to do the same. As long as we learn to solder correctly, who cares? 😄😄😄
do you have a started kit you can recommend ?

What type of flux and soldering wire I can use to solder a jump ring to an aluminum piece?
We are not familiar with soldering aluminum. We don't do and do not recommend it on our site.
Ok thank you really appreciate it do you know of anyone that works and is very familiar with the hand held iron solder and the best materials to use?
What is the brand of the fume extractor?
beaducation.com/p/5124-jewelry-making-tools-smoke-fume-absorber?product_category=393-jewelry-making-tools-soldering-fusing-tools
Dear lord thats A LOT of materials!
agreed, it is a bit intimidating, but after you have all the goodies, you can do SOOOO MUCH! We have the essentials in a kit if that helps .... www.beaducation.com/p/3719-metal-stamping-tools-soldering-starter-kit
I cannot find the cupernel anywhere?
Here ya go www.beaducation.com/p/6286-jewelry-making-tools-cupronil-flux-and-fire-scale-preventative
Using an electric hand held soldering ironm
We are only familiar with soldering with a torch not a soldering iron, so we really cannot make a recommendation.
Wouldn't you use yellow ocher on the copper, to prevent the solder from flowering out beyond the silver disk, into the stamping on the copper.
Also, how do I prevent solder paste from turning black. Seems maybe I heat I too long, so the Ingredients in the paste turn black, or burn? Solder paste flows faster than regular, doesn't it?
If your solder paste turns black, that should come out in the pickle. Does it? Yes, hello ocher is great to help solder from flowing in unwanted spots :)
Ina Garten of metalworking 👍
I need me a pickle pot
❤☝🏽🩵
Remember: Soldering IS NOT quite like Sex! so, ...Make sure everything is Clean, and fitting tight, ...then,..Get in, Get it Hot, and DON'T LINGER!!! and then Get out!!! LOL!!!
LOL!!!!!!
How is this video a "How to" video???? You don't let the viewers know what supplies and products you are using!!! This should be titled "Watch me make this" Not a how to video at all
I am so sorry you didn't find this tutorial helpful. We do try and cover the tools and materials used in the beginning of the video and this particular class is broken up by talking about the solder in one section, the torches in another and even safety. But we do have a lot of other material on our site that covers a lot of techniques. Also on our site you can check out the class page and see the tools and materials list. Thank you for your feedback and I hope we can guide you through the site better :)
