How to Fuse Fine Silver Wires to a Back Sheet(Without Melting It!)

How to Fuse Fine Silver Wires to a Back Sheet (Without Melting It!)- Fusing fine silver wire can be tricky so I'll show you how to use the torch and a beehive kiln to get it done successfully. One thing that isn't discussed in the video is that a thin coat of ochre (clay based soil) is applied to the bottom of the back sheet to help keep it from sticking to the kiln during fusing.

Ciao nn cio capito nulle cosa significa questo metallo

[@JewelryArts]

Hi! Fine silver is pure (.999) silver, with no copper added. Pure silver is fusible whereas sterling silver won't fuse nicely. :)
