Thanks! :)
Of all the silversmithing stuff. Pickle, solder, flux, molten metal, crucibles, kilns, etc. The thing I"m still scared of is the torch. :(
I used to work at a junk yard. Used an acetylene torch for quite a long time when I worked there. Never had a single accident or near accident involving the torch. Always had the gasses turned on and off correctly, always held it steady and secure, but..
I still fear I'll drop it somehow. :(
That's why these "plumbers torches" that I've been told people use bother me so much. They are big and a big bulky and their hieght exceeds their base width quite nicely (easy to knock over).
eh. I'm just babbling now.
Thank you all for your input. Beyond my torch-drop-ophobia, you've settled a number of other issues that my mind was stuck on. :)
