Learn the art of silversmithing your custom jewelry in this project class. Spinner rings are a great way to build new silversmithing skills. Practice working with jewelry-making tools such as the guillotine shear, and rolling mill while getting lots of experience with the torch. Go beyond the 101 level in jewelry while making a fidget ring you can give as a gift.

What’s a spinner ring, you ask? Also called a meditation ring or a worry ring, it’s the absolute best accessory for a chronic fidgeter. And it’s made of silver and copper, so it’s a classy piece of wearable artwork.

Prerequisites: Soldering experience is required.

Note: If you do not have this expeirence, take the TS_S01: Jewelry Tools Sign-off - Intro to Soldering and Tools first if you do not have this experience.
