[Jewelry making - Article 01060] - [Orchid] Back from Metalwerx

    I have just sat down to try to catch up on about 150 Orchid posts,
    but before I do, I just want to say what a great time I had at
    Metalwerx this weekend. It has a great atmosphere, and the wax
    build-up technique taught by Michael Sturlin is *very* cool-- I have
    mostly constructed a ring setting for a natural aquamarine crystal
    that I'd been scratching my head over for quite a while. This feels
    like the perfect way to do the design for this odd-shaped stone,
    because I just started with the stone and built the wax around it. 

    I was sorry to spend such a short time, and not really explore
    Boston, but I expect I'll be back. My last evening, I thought I might
    get scrod, but they said, "Not tonight dear, we have a haddock..."
    ;>} 

    Anyway, I'll be writing a review for Art Jewelry, so you can look for
    that in the fall! 

Noel
