Here is a great solder organizing idea from @bossy.bootz -“I found this escargot plate which is heavy ceramic (less than $10) and is perfect to conveniently keep my solder close by! It doesn’t get mixed up, I’m no longer tipping over my little plastic pots and when I use my torch all extra pieces don’t blow all over. I can keep it close and grab what I need easily.” Functional and fancy! 😂 thank you so much for sharing this! Might have to steal this idea! #metalsmithsociety #metalsmith #ladysmith #solderingjewelry
