I just ordered some silver sheet it's .925 sterling from Fire Mountain Gems and Beads , mirror finish and I'm going to make a cuff bracelet for a coworker.
I ordered 28 gauge sterling silver, unfortunately anything thicker costs way too much. in order to strengthen the cuff I'll be adding a double strip of copper and then folding the edges of the silver sheet over to make a band 1 inch wide which I'll then shape to the right dimensions for her wrist. I'm afraid I'm going to have to purchase a chasing hammer and a bench block, my improvisations aren't going to work much longer.
This time I'll take pictures I got a new phone with a decent camera for web pictures.
I should get the silver sheet one Wednesday of next week.
I also own, or have been instrumental in the following web sites:

Silver sheet jewelry also beautiful than other jeweleries, and if that made with Gems and Beads then very nice.
