David Lee Smith
With over 23 years teaching thousands of students worldwide — from complete beginners to professional jewelers — David Lee Smith has perfected a fast, safe, and fun approach to silversmithing. Founder of SilversmithingClass.com, a pioneer in e-commerce tools (created the world’s first 3D Bead & Jewelry components online store), and inventor of tools like the patented Bail Perfect Centering Tool, Spider Hold Down Tool, Lazy Sue SolderN’Board™ and Ergonomic Bezel Setters. Students consistently leave 2-day classes with finished pendants, rings, and bracelets they’re proud to wear or sell. Based on the beautiful Saunders Lake near the beach city of North Bend, Oregon, Dave’s in-person retreats, and online video courses have helped hobbyists launch side businesses and retirees discover a rewarding creative outlet.
