Following the success of her first book, Simple Soldering, Kate Ferrant Richbourg walks kitchen table metalsmiths through the basics and into new territory! In addition to teaching the essentials of soldering, Metalsmithing Made Easy demystifies rotary tools and introduces different kinds of hotter small-space torches. In her signature friendly, easy-to-follow style, Kate lays out a lesson plan of techniques to help readers gain familiarity with soldering tools and methods. In the chapter "The Field Guide to the Rotary Tool" you will learn how to quickly and efficiently, with a simple handheld tool and a few select bits, add professional-quality surface effects and finishing to your jewelry designs. A practice sampler of metal tiles, to be worked on step by step, helps to hone skills in surface manipulation, stone setting, cold connections, and more. Once these skills are mastered in the sampler, you can undertake any (or all) of fifteen gorgeous projects included, such as a locket, bail with set stone, prong-set pendant, and much more.

It takes so little equipment to make such a big difference -- practically anything from kitchen scourers to clothes pegs can make a fabulous stamp! Buy one or create your own, use it on fabric or on paper, brush it with paint or ink. Start by experimenting: dip a variety of objects in ink, press it on paper, and see what image emerges. Glue string onto cardboard to form spiral stamps, or cut designs into foam block. Leaves, potatoes, spools, fruit, even your hands also work. How you load the paint affects your results, so carefully follow the tips for inking the stamp pad, embossing, and painting the stamp itself. Special hints cover preparing the work surface; working with wood, fabric, and tiles; and cleaning your stamp. Then the fun begins, as you try making Fruit Printed Bags and Paper, a Trains, Boats, and Planes Quilt; Fishy Tiles; a regal Fleur-de-Lys lampshade or cushion; plus many more, all with easy-to-transfer patterns.
