    Hello Orchidians, If I missed someone's discussion about this in a
    previous post, I apologize. Janet, when making a chain with soldered
    links, solder half of the links before assembling.  After
    assembling, solder the connecting links using cross-lock tweezers as
    a heat sink on the already soldered links. Even with more complex
    chains, it should be possible to  solder as many as possible before
    assembling.  Also when choosing which ones to solder before
    assembly, choose the links that would be more difficult to solder
    AFTER assembly. 

    I hope this helps "turn the light on." Judy in Kansas
