Here are some Ti earrings done by one of my students and also a café member Jeroen.

The sphere, wire etc, everything started from a Ti sheet.

Really nice !!! do you (or Jeroen) weld this with the Puk and if so what type of Puk.

 

[Arnaud Van Tilburgh]

Yes Willem, all Ti welding is done by the PUK 3. There is no way soldering Ti

I. know Arnaud that Ti can't be soldered, but Puk is developing so many new types I was wondering what type you use.
I have the Puk 2, I think this type will do it but the newest Puk's are getting better and better.

 

[Arnaud Van Tilburgh]

Willem, We saw,the Puk 4 at the Basel fair and asked about what is new on it. The answer we got is that the Puk4 is just the same one as the Puk3, only the look has changed. So I don't need to buy a new one.
I also used the Puk2 like you have one, and yes it can do the job as well but the Puk3 and 4 have more power and some extra settting.

Very interesting. Do you use argon gas with it too?

 

[Arnaud Van Tilburgh]

Yes James, argon gas is needed to prevent oxidizing
