When soldering you have to remember that other metals will andorb the heat, as you found with the anvil. I realize you aren't soldering but you are heating, we usually.solder on a fire brick to avoid it absorbing the heat, so even the needle nose can absorb the heat. Solder picks are titanium so as to avoid that heat absorption.
Thank you soooo much!
These look amazing! Love your style!
Perhaps try finding yourself an old clay kiln brick or broken kiln slab. Or even purchasing some refractory cement to make your own kiln brick customized to your personal size for heating up and toning your metal jewelry work on.
You can sometimes find old heating kiln parts and pieces at yard sales, second hand stores, some different Facebook sale/trade type pages, groups or communities.
And theres always going around your local art studios and asking about any known pottery studios in your area that might sell old broken kiln parts at reasonable prices..... you never know..... a starving artist just might surprise you 🤷♀️ lol.
And using some painters tape or masking tape to hold your piece instead of your fingers when hammering, works great!
I personally prefer the green painters tape.
I find it doesn't leave as much of a sticky residue on my projects that sometimes other painters tapes and brands of masking tapes can sometimes leave on my pieces. But that's just my personal opinion. lol.
No matter what the material, tape, brand, etc, etc. is. As long as you're happy with the end result and outcome of your piece. That's all that really, truly matters! Right!?!

Thank you sooo much for the feedback!
you're on a roll with your videos
Painters tape!
Just discovered your channel, love the washer designs and I adore the bead bracelets you are wearing!
Hold with a pencil with eraser on end
Try double sided tape to hold items and a kilm brick might help with the torching
Thank you!
Your content is enchanting. Let's collab and create more wonder!
you can tape the washer down with blue painter's tape while hammering :)
Thank you! I’m going to give it a try!
What do you do to the back of a flame painted copper piece of jewelry
Could hold it in place with some strong magnets around it
I ended up using needle nose pliers and holding it close to the edge. Thank you for the suggestion!
After heating dip in used engine oil…. Mineral.. not synthetic
Use tape …
