Ganoskin --Metalsmithing & Fabrication Jewelry Resource

I had someone ask me the other day, what kind of resources did you use to start learning metalsmithing & fabrication to create your jewelry? Being a self taught jewelry artist , I did a lot of searching on the internet for "tutorials" and "articles".

One of my favorite places to learn or ask a question is the Orchid Forums at Ganoskin.
The Orchid Forums is where you can learn the secrets of jewelry making but also ask the experts a question. Ganoskin also has jewelry making articles. These articles range from the beginner to expert level. Every time I visit, Ganoskin I learn something new.

Whether you are a hobbyist or making a living like myself, I think you will find this gem & jewelry website a resource you use time and time again to learn metalsmithing and fabrication techniques to create beautiful jewelry.
