Yes, this too was the BEST explanation AND demonstration of actually seeing the different solders melting. Awe-some!!!! Thanks sooo much! I need to go see what online workshops you might have going on that I can take.

Thank you for this video Melissa. I have just purchased a soldering kit from Rio Grande and am nervous and anxious to dive in and use it! Your tutorial played out right next to my bench as I spread my and burned at first, but starting to fly low for now!

There certainly is a learning curve. But keep at it. Let me know if you have questions and I will try to help where I can.

Hi Melissa, I really enjoy all of you classes. They are valuable to me and you are to be commended for giving of yourself and your time. If You Tube gave awards for the best and most helpful uploads, you would have my vote. I have been an apptentice to a master jeweler but we had a huge falling out due to his illegal activities at the store. I have a lot of questions I would like to ask. Which is the best email to use to contact you? Thanks a million for your help.

@jimding041 - I am glad that you found it useful. It just takes practice. I am offering an online soldering workshop that starts on October 8th, that will be certain to get you comfortable with it in no time. Something to consider anyway. The more you do it, the easier it will become. Even I am lousy at it sometimes still. :)

Tim, that has to be one of the best comments I have received. Thank you so much. I will send you a pm through YouTube as it won't allow me to post my email address here.

Melissa, I've been confused about what I need for soldering. I've seen several blocks and would like to know if I need all of them for soldering or do each of these have the same purpose: Magnesia block, Honeycomb ceramic block, Charcoal block. I've also seen the soldering pan with pumice and some sort of soldering boards. Can you please help me understand what each one of these types of soldering blocks and boards are for? Thanks so much. Your videos are quite helpful.
