Using fine silver wire and a butane torch, fuse your own
links. Texture the links by using a variety of hammers and design stamps.
Chain the links together or double chain them. Add a bevy of bead dangles,
make a clasp and wear a bracelet out of class! With the leftover links,
explore making organic links by running them through the rolling mill with
various textures for some fabulous links you can’t buy anywhere!
