Here is a pickle pot option for folks on a budget from @drybranchdesigns - “Small tip for #beginnersilversmith folks: When I first started out, I definitely looked for ways to cut costs in my initial investment of equipment. Enter my pickle pot, a cheap sugar bowl and a mug warmer. It works perfectly for smaller items, and this whole setup cost me around $5. Bonus: you can keep your coffee warm in-studio (when you aren’t using pickle, of course)!“ Love this! It’s also a great space saver! Thank you for sharing with us! If you’d like to submit a tip please email me corkie@metalsmithsociety.com square format video and photos work best and please send a caption explaining your tip! You all keep Metalsmith Society going 💕🙌 #metalsmith #sharingknowledge #metalsmithsociety #jewelrymaking
