Jewelry 101 – Soldering

I could write an article on soldering, but there's already a good one with basic info over at H. Palleiko Designs blog. One thing I would add to her directions is this: wear a ventilator mask and work in a well ventilated area. Fumes from flux, solder, and your torch are things you probably don't want to be breathing. You can find ventilators at hardware stores. At my local hardware store they are right near the torches - very convenient!
