[Jewelry making - Article 01023] - [Orchid] How to find a master?

    I've decided, after a few years of futzing around as a self-taught
    artisan, that I want to make a career of this. Gemsetter/goldsmith
    is a recognized trade with the Ontario apprenticeship office, but I
    need to find a master to take me on before I can register with them.
    Besides networking here, what's the best way for me to go about this?
    Are there any particular cities I should be focussing on? What
    skills, qualities or experience does a master goldsmith want in an
    apprentice?
