hi all-
it's been a very long time since i did any colored gold inlay work and the memories have faded to the point that i may be sweet-talked into once again descending into the bowels of HE11 to do mortal battle with that evil, God-forsaken, forged in satan's furnace, instantaneously-work-hardening, mother*****, %&*$#&!!!!!!.... uh, sorry about that, where was i?
as i was saying, it's been awhile and i could use some recommendations on a good source for nice rosy rose gold, preferably in an alloy that doesn't alchemically morph into carbide the moment a tool is waved in its general vicinity. any other suggestions for working with the vile stuff would be most appreciated. (btw- i already know the best technique is to talk the client out of it and i haven't given up on that plan just yet.)
thanks!
