My interests are varied but include fold forming, stringing, mixed media, and PNC. Iād love to hone my soldering skills.
Hi! Welcome to Orchid!

There are hours of postings on soldering in the archives. Dive in. Everyone has a slightly different take on soldering but the universal truths are: The joints must be tight. The work and work area must be clean. Getting the right heat for the work will be the difference between a good job and doing it over.( Others will have different universal truths 
)
Good Luck and have fun
