Here is a great tip for identifying your wire solder from @lionandlambstudios - “I learned this trick for distinguishing between easy, medium, and hard solder wire from Joe at @silverajewelryschool: 1 bend for easy, 2 bends for Medium, and 3 bends for hard. Now I know what all those little pieces of wire at my soldering station are at a glance!” Thank you for sharing, now we need the tip on how to tell your solder apart if you didn’t use this method 😂 if you have a tip on that email me!
