Areas to be covered are the clean up and preparing of rough castings, making a stainless steel wire spring, soldering sterling to stainless, tube rivets and finishing techniques. The Knuckle Adjuster RingŠ incorporates a knuckle joint, torsion spring, tube rivets and articulated joints. It will accommodate a size two to a size ten finger. Day two starts with a simple ring blank of flat, round, square or other shape metal and is a jumping off point for students to make a ring that shakes, rolls, spins or has some sort of movement. Day three will allow for further exploration.
