Here is a tip for your soldering area from @allieperrydesigns - “Sound on for this one. 👂 Here’s a handy habit to prevent burns: if you rest your tools on the side of your soldering board it’s pretty much guaranteed that you will end up burning the side of your hand at some point when you touch a tool recently used during soldering. When you’re done soldering, get into the habit of dipping your tools in your water dish before you put them down! It’s easy, it just takes a second, and once you’re in the habit, you’ll never rest your hand on a hot solder pick again! Your hand will thank you. 🤚🏼 (For reference, my tweezers are stainless steel, and my pick is titanium.)” Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I also am in the habit of doing this 😄 #soldering #solderingjewelry #makingjewelry
