Handmade Filigree Video




Excuse my french, but this guy is a bad ass.  

Watching him make everything from scratch was amazing.  

It makes me feel like when I say my stuff is hand made that I'm a little bit of a cheat considering most of my materials have already been processed for me.  

Did you see the way he made the paste solder?  And the way he used it to solder all the pieces together? 

Amazing.  

I think I learned a few things....
