Does anyone know where i can learn to make top quality jewelery?

Someone has already posted a similar post in the employment forum but no one has put up their hand to teach.

Are there any existing lessons in SL?

Anyone know anyone willing to teach how to do this?

The in-world tutorial "The Ivory Tower of Primitives" will teach you most everything there is to know about building, and for very small prims, there's a tutorial here in the forums: /8/da/27520/1.html

After that, it comes down to a lot of practice.

I heard that Teazer's University holds (or held?) jewelry making classes. Might be worth a try, also there's some other educational facilities in SL that hold various building classes, you might find some more specialized classes there.

Thank you for the info.
I only have very basic builing skills so should i take some beginner classes before i attempt that class?

Also is it alright for oldbies to participate? as it is my alt who wants to do this not me and he is older than 90 days.

Problem with NCI is there just way too many people who go there personally for me or I would go there more often myself.
Definitely not place to go unless you can deal with the lag.
I have pretty much either had to teach myself with occasional tips from from friends because of lag.
I am working on now how to create prim flowers before I attempt jewlery first.
Controlling camera and objects is important too. Small objects get lost too easy if you're inexperienced. Ctr Alt T helps some too to see invisible or small items.

We advise having a basic understanding of building and texturing before taking the jewelry class. NCI also has classes in both. You might find one of our Basic Building or Introduction to Textures classes useful.

All NCI classes are open to everyone, no matter how old or young. They are also all free to students.
