Welcome Dale.

    Orchid is THE dream forum for thousands of us at all skill levels. I
    heard about it when there were only about 225-250 folks on the list.
    Back then we printed out really good info and saved it in loose leaf
    binders. From then until now Orchid has always been about questions
    and answers. Looking back I remember one particular series of Q&As
    with a college student taking her first jewelry course. You could
    actually feel her growing throughout the school session as did we
    all. 

    Regarding casting in gold, have you considered experimenting a
    little with some gold pieces you have but no longer want to keep? I'm
    no metallurgist, but I truly learned a lot with cast offs. This kind
    of experimenting gave me even more questions to ask and took away
    that "Oh, my Heavens! This stuff is really GOLD". 

Just my two cents worth,
Joyce
