I learnt some great new skills, and built up some much needed courage when attempting to make metal do something I want it to, bit it doesn't. Linda is amazingly meticulous - it was utterly inspiring to be taught by someone for whom a fraction of a millimetre out is too far! Here's the silver box I made:
And here, for those of you who are less interested in my crafting endeavours and more in our animals, is Charlie yesterday - his first day at home!

I did that exact same course 5 years ago and have a silver box just the same!! I was really pleased with the results, but would be happy if I never saw a file again...
ReplyDeleteTell us more about the course...how long, how much, when, how often??? I would love to do a short course next summer to top up the one I'm doing at night school now :)
ReplyDeleteLovely box by the way!
It was around £450 I think for a week long course... kinda expensive, but the quality of the equipment and teaching at CSM make it well worth it in my view. I've just soldered a new piece a la technique learnt when making my wee box and it's come out spot on (minimum clean up required - hurrah!).
