I have a technical question for you! What type of torch do you use for your steel jewelry and trees? I primarily make sterling silver jewelry and know zero about working with steel, but I love metals in general and mixing metals and wonder if my oxy-acetylene torch would work for something that size.
Love your work and all of your helpful Etsy tips, by the way! :)
Melanie... I use a Mig wire welder. I would not recommend a oxy-acetylene torch for steel... It would be to messy. You also need it to be way hotter to melt the steel.
