Wowza, today was a bitch and a half.... I'm working on my midterm for Fashion Jewelry as well as samples. Today we did the tube clasp which isn't rocket science, but I'm going to use it in my midterm so I was taking my time with it. But what really gave me trouble was finishing my curved bezel sample. Curved bezels are difficult but are so beautiful when done right. Took me three tries but I finally made one that was the right size, filed it correctly, and soldered it down fully. It's still a work in process but after 6 hours of class and 4 extra hours of jewelry work following that, I was a bit spent. Carrying on with it all tomorrow, but I think I'll work on my casting final; I need to make some wax larva and moths.
