It's a fail right now -- working with metal

I have some leftover silver from my jewelry classes I took near my job.  I decided to use one piece that was pretty much all used up.  I cut the pieces in smaller pieces.  It was messy.  Not just the silver dust but with the saw blades:
I have not attained the relax state that sawing metal bring.  I am not at that level.  Saw metal is more a stress for me, since I had my classes.

Here are four pieces that I want to use as earring:
I have pierce the holes for the rings and hooks.  The pîeces need to have more work on them.  I will have heat them too.  I want to have some relief on them.  Motivation is hard right now.  I don't have every tools and I don't have advices.  It is what I miss from the classes I got back then.

There is one longer piece that I cut:
This one will be shaped into a ring.  I wish those projects were much easier to do.   It had been a long time since my ckasses.  I may be due to find another place that allow me to do my own projects.  It may be a problem.  I know a place but it is a bit far away from my place or my working place.

On the meantime, I will try to work on those pieces the best I can.  I have an idea that I want to try to work on them.
