It went ok as far as the hinge part goes. Although I did get some bend in the 'pin' maybe I needed to use a thicker gauge metal. What ended up causing the most trouble is that I used nickels to prop my piece (I had read that somewhere) and I ended up with a huge mess of melted money which came up around the edge of the seam and all into my bezel..what a mess.</p> <br class="clear-both" /><!-- google_ad_section_end --> <p><a href="http://www.artmetal.com/images/jewelry_gallery/janice_fowler/2007/10/first_hinge_pendant">read more</a></p> http://www.artmetal.com/images/jewelry_gallery/janice_fowler/2007/10/first_hinge_pendant#comment Jewelry Gallery First hinge Fri, 19 Oct 2007 12:01:45 -0500 JaniceF 4250 at http://www.artmetal.com
