How to make a ring - from start to finish. Handcrafted silver ring.

My mom got me a metalsmithing kit for my birthday, like I asked for, and we both want to learn how to use it… I definitely need more detail than this video, but it was beautiful to watch and got me so excited to start!

The music drives me insane

Could this method work with platinum?

I loved it OMG

This will be my first project from scratch. Several of them, in several sizes. It should be good practice, and show me what sizes sell best.

Once you measure your ring size, how can one guarantee they cut the right length of wire?

Thanks for giving this video

What gage size is that?

It's pleasure to watch you work 😊

Thank you! Lovely.

I just started making some beaded rings yesterday watching your videos. They’re so helping and easy to follow. 🤩

I have a doubt about if I should use the polishing attachments only on the soldered joint and then put the rings in the tumbler or if I should polish the whole ring with the attachments and the tumbler too 😫

Please DONATE to St JUDE'S. One dollar. 25 cents. PLEASE DONATE. Sorry, kinda not sorry, for putting this out there. Please DONATE to St Judes. Please, please PLEASE.

Thanks for this... just wish it was filmed less "artsy"! Distracting and hard to see what's happening if you're here for information.

What gauge wire is this?

LOVE IT!!

Great video to watch the art of ring making, but you tell us nothing about supplies you use of any how to do anything.but it was nice watching you

Please could you make a video step by step talking us through it x

Had to subscribe. Loved the video!!

thanks a lot for your process, love the ring and the video itslef. Now I really want to try doing one

So relaxing!!! Plus learning!

I can’t find who you said to look up to buy the ring template .. gnomeow? I can’t find him again.

Your videos are really good & instructional. A joy to watch..so good to see you enjoy your work & your professional approach..
I was horrified earlier watching 2 women making jewellery, using a torch with long hair flowing all over the place.
My concentration was on whether they were going to go up in flames..I will never watch them again!..

Omg I love this video. It's so soothing.

How much is something like this worth?

How do you make the flux?

You make it look so easy! Lol I love your videos. My rings keep getting so dark with fire scale no matter how quickly I try to go. Your ring stayed so silver through the whole soldering process. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thank you!

I know this is really old but what gauge wire did you use

Beautiful video! I would like to try to make a ring, but dont have money to buy all of the equippment. Do you have any advice on what the most necessary tools are to make a really simple ring, even though it may not look as beautiful and finished as this one?

I love all your videos. Started off wire wrapping jewellery.... but would love to get into metalsmithing. What are some basic tools to start with if I were to go into metalsmithing?

What hammer was used to create the texture?

I truly LOVE your videos!
How do you ensure that the ring ends up the size you wanted since sometimes it stretches on the mandrel? I guess rawhide won’t stretch…

More videos like this!

Hi Basia, I absolutely love your channel and you motivated me to get back to jewellery making :) I would like to ask what size of wire did you use for this ring, which gauge? Thank you so much for everything you do <3

Hello, I’ve been interested in making silver jewelry. And I’m trying to learn as much as possible online before actually getting my hands on it. I have a question....in this video, after you cut the silver to the size you want...there was an “anneal” step where you heated the metal with the torch, quenched it, and then put it in the pickle crockpot. My question is...why to do this step? Is it because heating it and then putting it in the pickle helps to make the metal softer for bending? Also...what is the difference between the solution used in the glass bowl where you quench it and the solution that is used in the crockpot? Thanks so much!

Hey, do you use soft, half hard or hard wire? Thanks💞

How did you get the length from the ring sizes to cut? Also what gauge is good to use for general ring making?

What gauge wire was this? 7?

visible hammer and scratch marks on a ring reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

It's pretty nice work space you have. Thanks for sharing

What do you put in your quench bowl?

What type of hammer does she use when texturing the outside and sides of the ring?

Adhiparasakthi goddess creator- gold, silver, copper,bronze
,gem stones.
Om sakthi parasakthi
OM KALI JAI KALI

I truly have never felt more at peace then I do making rings.
Rings for me means life a never ending cycle of search for happiness.

this is so beautiful!what gauge wire did you use in this and was it sterling silver?

Excellent. Thank you so much for posting this. What type of flux did u use and what type of attachment did you have on the Dremel when polishing?

You are good,really good your video make me motivate in your working smith ,one thing may i know how the flux is prepare. is it expensive, i like to try soldering at home myself.

Another awesome video 😊 I just wanted to ask, what is the purpose of the tumbler to polish if you have already polished it with the handheld one?

What gauge is the wire?

That's a great foundation for what ever you can imagine. If I may suggest , for the hammered part I would not use a ballpean hammer, I suggest a planishing hammer, it gives a bright indention , that creates contrast. I just made one . Put side by side , night and day. GREAT foundation. Good job 👍
