    Hey folks- got here late. I have been doing jewelry since I quit
    practicing Law, about 30 years ago. I teach (one on one) and what I
    tell my students is that I can teach them how to do techniques, but
    I can't give them experience. That comes with time and mistakes. In
    the 70's, I read books, magazines and anything else I could to gain
    knowledge. I RUINED a lot of silver, but eventually, I learned to
    get it right. The same holds true today. Take a lot of seminars and
    practice, practice, practice. Experience is the key. No school or
    seminar can give you experience. Go for it........
