I made a zombie necklace with copper, brass and silver.

For the heart, I saw the two sides and drilled holes. Then, I threaded a long metallic pin to attach the two sides.

I drew the zombie and cut all the parts. Then, I soldered all the pieces. My torch was small and I had trouble getting the metal hot enough to have the solder melting in the right place. I polished it with a small handheld drill and black sandpaper.
I only broke two drill bits and a few saw blades!

Wow. Well done you. All that metal working looks quite difficult to do.

 ;DThank you!
I took a class some time ago and metal working was great fun with access to all the tools but it's way more difficult at home.
The heart is easier since there is no soldering and the parts are bigger..
