Hello everyone,

    I am very excited as I am going to make my first heavy 14K gold
    Cuban link bracelet.   I just finished making the mold and it looks
    like the curb Cuban link came out pretty nice.  Anyway, I've got a
    question as to the procedure on how to properly assemble this
    bracelet.  Should I cast all of the links in 14K and then cut every
    other one open and solder?  Or..., should I make a cut in the wax
    link before casting on every other link and thereby save the time of
    having to cut through a metal link, avoid gold waste, etc? Your
    comments, thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated. 

Glenn Block
