i am looking to take a workshop on clasps and hinges. meaning i
know what i want to make, but need help in fabricating it. i need to
find a workshop that will be short and sweet. i heard of a class in
the 580 broadway building by a guy named paul something or other. i
am wondering if anyone knows of this workshop or another one i could
take? thank you.

Amanda, contact Bob or Hiroko Streppone at Studio Jewelers, located
in 32 E. 31st Street, between Park and Madison Ave. I took a 3-mth
class up to this last Xmas and just signed up for my second class
today because I find them very professional and thorough in their
teaching. I believe from reading their curriculum that they can teach
you about hinges. Feel free to check out their website
(www.studiojewelersltd.com) or calling them (M-Th 10-9pm) at
212-686-1944.
Best regards,
Jerry Torrens
