I got a torch and started playing. I fused the copper frame for the hummingbird and used AB delicas and a crystal to "flesh" him out.
I tried a hummingbird before I got the torch and the beak was a huge problem with folded 18g wire- it was just too big. With the torch, I was able to fuse the fold and file down a shape. The frame is fused closed at the tail. It was a neat job, but you can't see it because my beading wires began and stopped there.
This was my first project with the torch. I did a nice heart, too. I can see more playtime in the future. ;D
