Creating hollow forms for jewelry. This tutorial explains various way how I create hollow forms and texture metal. The tutorial is 10 pages long with process photos and instruction s. I always love creating hollow forms, I feel they give beautiful dimension to your jewelry piece. Learning new metalsmith techniques always gives the artist a wider range of design choices. I have also added the pdf tutorial on how to create a tube bangle, therefore there will be two separate tutorials to download after making your purchase. One dedicated to creating hollow forms and another on how to create a tube bangle. In these tutorials I only explain how to make the hollow forms and a tube bangle , not the finished jewelry piece. You can see how I used the hollow forms in my jewelry creations in the above photos.Techniques required: Soldering, texturing, sanding, filing, rolling mill, cuttingMetalsmithing: Intermediate levelRequired materials and tools:22 gauge sterling silver sheet (or base metals)20 gauge sterling silver sheet (or base metals)14 gauge round silver wire ( or base metals)Solder, Hard, Medium, EasyFluxFirscoffWhite-out water basedRolling Mill (optional)Jewelers SawPaper, Paper TowelsChasing HammerCross Peen Domed HammerLaser Prints (optional)PunchesMicro TorchAcetylene torch or Map Gas torchSand paperBench grinderFlex shaft or DremelCenter PunchBench shear or shear cuttersRing Clamp This is a DIGITAL DOWNLOAD, you can access your digital file from your order confirmation.
