We’ve (hubby and I) have recently purchased a jump ringer and are
having lots of fun making tons of jump rings. I’m new to working
with metal, specifically silver, and wonder if we should be annealing
the wire before or after making the rings. How do you know when to
anneal and when not to? Do those rules apply to gold fill or copper
too? How do you know when the wire is up to temp? Should we be
tumbling the rings after they are made to harden?
Lots of questions, I know. Be kind to a newbie:)
