I love this soldering tip from
@sara_kratzer - “Soldering up the bar of the toggle: I sanded the jump ring flat for more surface to solder on to the bar. In the second picture you can see the 2 solder balls on either side of the jump ring. Heating the whole piece but aiming most of the heat on the bar since it is thicker. Then just flow the solder into the center. This way I solder the jumpring closed and on to the bar in one shot!”Often times when someone is struggling with soldering a jump ring to another element I recommend sanding a small flat surface! She is also soldering the jump ring closed as she solders it to the toggle in one go! Love it! Thanks for letting me share!!
