    I have a customer who definatley wants platinum incorporated into a
    piece I'm making for her the rest is steling siver. Having worked
    mainly with siver and golds, Im not confident on making a decision on
    the commision piece. Is it possible to solder platinum and silver
    together? What solder would I use? or would I benifit from using a
    platinum alloy of some sort?
