Soldering Stencils are forms made of titanium that assist in holding together patterns of precious metals pieces in order to more easily be able to solder them together with a torch. Titanium will not steal your heat from your project as you solder, will not become soft and distorted aftering heating, and is easily removed from your project after you are done.
This new Split Leaf design has a 1.5mm gap that allows for a stem of metal wire to be inserted and then openwork designs can be created around it. The stem can then be used as a bail, as a clasp, curved into earring wires, or even as a component that is incorporated into a larger design.
This set includes 6 leaf designs as pictured. See photos for dimensions and styles with a US Quarter for size comparison.
Soldering stencils can be used to assist in many different ways: Fusing, soldering, granulation, filigree, templates, soldering positioning tools, and more!
