A lot more to sweat soldering than I thought in these applications. Thank you Nancy. Great video as always.

I know this is an old video, but learned so much and LAUGHED so much, I had to comment. THANK YOU! I was trying to figure out how to stick stuff together myself -- um...there are VIDEO tutorials in this modern world! - Thank you for showing it so simply!

Mrs. Nancy your videos are so helpful. there isn't much out there on these subject's good videos anyway. Thanks a ton

Great to watch a new video. Just started sweat soldering, thanks for the clear info. So enjoy your humour.

I always love watching your videos, I am so glad I am not the only one who didn't seal it all the way...I had two actually.. and I just put it to the side. :(

Refreshingly Funny tutorial! Loved it!

Girl, you are a riot...nevermind the talent. Thank you. Chuck Deutschman

Hi Nancy. You are totally bonkers but I love you and your tutorials, you are so talented. Your cat looks like mine (he is called Eric).Here in the UK it is sometimes difficult to get the materials that you have available in the USA, but we struggle on............I am new to silver clay, soldering etc, so I am learning a lot from your videos - they are so good but please, don't disappear into another room to do the 'boring' bits, take us with you so that we can see the whole process.

Thank you for the video! Love your personality, I'd love to make jewelry with you!

Thankyou for this very useful lesson and the comedy act!

You are a hoot to watch, just thought I'd let you know ;) thanks for your lessons!

love your persona 💕Thank you ❣️

I love you and your Craziness.

beautiful....thank you,Nancy....:):)

Thank you for sharing, very nice video.. I love your videos... :)

HEEEEELLLLLLLP!!!! Nancy and anyone else who cares to comment....Can you tell me what size flame tip you used in this video? I know your website article states you use primarily a Goss #3. I'm trying to decide if tip size is part of the problem I'm having with a similar applique project- it's a devil getting the solder to flow on a bookmark size piece of appliqued and pierced copper, brass and silver. I'm using a Smith #1 torch tip and no more than two layers of 24 gauge metal; my flux (Cupronil) starts out beautifully but eventually fries up before the solder flows; I get terrible firescale- in some cases after the third attempt to solder my metal is getting pitted. My metal is pickled and scoured with a fiber pad on my flexshaft prior to soldering, I'm having the same problem regardless of the solder, I've used both copper wire solder and silver pallions in varying hardness, after each attempt some areas are soldered or just tacked on and the applique falls off during cleaning (when it's just tacked on I don't quench- I allow the piece to cool gradually). My pieces were pretty flat and when I use my pick to press down any area that raises while heating the other side pops up. The ONLY thing that is substantially different from previous projects is the ambient temperature of my studio- it's winter here in the Colorado mountains and though my studio is heated the room is still colder at this time of year (It's my first winter in this studio space), so the air is cold, my products are cold- untill I hit them with the torch- I just cannot figure it out....

Nancy you're great 😁

This is the first vid of yours ive watched and less then 5 minutes in i had to subscribe. I was crackin up the whole time, your such a funny and bad ass lady!! Super fucking talented too♥

thanks Mrs Nancy

thanks to share

Thank you!!!

You are amazing! Wish you were my neighbor!

Yes, I'd love to know where to get that big round charcoal block too. Thank you!

Thanks so much for sharing your expertise! I get a lot from your videos and appreciate you taking the time to make and post them. I do have a question about this sweat soldering that I am wondering if you can help me out with. I sweat soldered a backing layer onto a bezel that I had created and apparently missed a couple of places on the backing piece so that when I was soldering I got the back a little too warm and it bubbled up as though air was trapped. Is there a way to fix something like that? I have been researching, but found nothing helpful.

Love your work. Thank you very much. I love the rings that you wear. Do you teach how to make the hollow rings?

You are just Fantabulosa!

The beginning had me like, “yep, I’m still half asleep.” 😅

Thanks for the great video Nancy! Question: I am going to sweat solder an intricate sterling silver overlay over a solid copper plate. I am concerned that the silver solder may flow outside the boundaries of where it should go, and cover some of the copper where it needs to show through. Any tips to make sure solder stays where it should? For my piece, it's important that the pretty copper doesn't get covered by silver solder.

Cool!

Loved your video... lol

I'm still waiting for the lesson on how to felt cat fur -

Thank you, again, for teaching us how to do cool stuff with metal . I have one question: how do we solder thin silver wire to silver sheet with out the solder showing? I want to do design work with small wires on metal with out it looking like a solder fail. :)

Love your videos, Nancy. Where did you get your round charcoal block? I've never seen one like that before. Thanks!

I wonder how you get the solder in the voids where it didn't go the first time without it being visible. I think you said it was a repeat of the first time, but then it was 2 separate pieces. You make me laugh, and you're brilliant! Thank you.

It would be nice to see how you resoldered the piece. I don't know where you place the solder for that.

Nancy - When you did the piece that you ran through the rolling mill (at 2:33min), you used 24g silver and 18g copper?

❤

Hi, Nancy I can spin and knit cat fur. 😊 you mentioned a while back about embossing machine you saw at a show do you have any info on it?

Nancy do you think a Weller 80watt would work for flat but thick horseshoe nails if you want to solder them together on the sides?

How do you solder copper to stainless?

Did you make the copper pc you sweat soldered, in this video? If so, how? :) TIA

You are so funny 😆 😂🤣

I am just so in love with you...

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.....

Seems like without a mill, Im simply an amateur.

You get a bell click for that one honey!

Soddering???? Am I hearing things?

My big ginger cat is a pair of gloves and a hat cat. The little one is only a one glove or a small pair of fingerless gloves cat...you think you're the crazy cat lady...I'm the local crazy fox and cat lady (and I am just joking about the hats and gloves but I wouldn't mind shaving the buggers and doing some felting. ...why is it that your own indoor animals are so picky and moody whereas the feral cats and foxes are always happy to see me?

I love your videos. Are you stoned?

You are wonderful and I learned a lot! 🫶

I love your personality. Thanks for the great videos!

lol, love your personality and videos. Thanks Nancy...you rock!
