Metal Working 101

Took a resin and metal jewelry class today, from the same instructor who is teaching the cold riveting class on Sunday.

I've never done metal-working of any kind before but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night watch a couple of YouTube videos so I wouldn't be a total idiot novice. The wire-wrapping didn't thrill me - my pieces look very um, "organic" - but I did like working with sheet metal and fashioning bezels. I'm not sure I'd do more resin work but I'm glad I took the class. Better pictures as soon as my pieces dry (24-hours or so) and I have something other than a cell-phone camera available.
