Ask the Experts Soldering Jump Rings Q&A

I am wondering how to solder gold-filled jump rings. I have a soldering iron, what else do I need to purchase? And what size jump rings should I purchase? I need pretty small ones since my jewelry is delicate.

A soldering iron is for other applications, although some can be applied to jewelry making. The type of soldering you are describing is done with a torch and jewelry-specific solder. We carry soldering paste specifically for gold and gold-filled items. Be sure to check out the articles and video tutorials below for instructions and the tools needed.
