Silversmithing: Mastering Pick Soldering

This short tutorial shows you the importance of learning to pick solder. It demonstrates the process as well as explaining the advantages of mastering this skill. Pick soldering allows one to control both the amount of solder applied as well as allowing precise placement. I think the biggest advantage is how much faster one can do things. Spend some time practicing this technique if you'd like to speed up and improve your soldering skills. If you find it helpful or interesting, please give it a like!
