Product ReviewsMaking Silver Chains : Simple Techniques, Beautiful Designs by Glen F. Waszek

Great tutorial style book making jewelry.

This is a great book for those wanting to make jewelry. The "crafties" making craft quality chains will find it worthless as they have not a clue nor desire to learn how to make jump rings and solder them together.Read full review...

Loop in loop and chain mail

This book is a keeper. It is somewhat similar to the book by James Llewellyn -- Chain Design the Art of Solderless Wireworking -- but Waszek does show soldering in this book. Good step by step photos and drawings.

These are loop in loop chains with some chain mail. He does also show how to make your own clasps / fasteners.Read full review...
