More soldered books

My soldered books are getting bigger and I'm having more and more fun making them. Unfortunately I'm also running low on solder and have to find way to source lead-free solder from USA (it is such huge price difference). If anyone knows any company that would ship to Australia it would be much unappreciated.

Soldering and bookbinding

It's been busy here since my last post. The most important is that I have set up a little workshop in my garden and it's been pleasure playing without thinking about the mess around me. Even the high temperatures (40 +) haven't hindered me in enjoying extra space. Not to mention that I have spare room finally cleared from clutter and eventually labeled all draws and boxes with my little treasures. How good is it not loosing time and mind searching for things.

Finally I'm catching up with lots od projects I started but never finished. Here are some little soldered book covers I learned in Stephie Lee's on-line class. I hope you like them as I do.
