One good trick i saw with keeping the back from bulging out.. is to use black electrical tape on your bench block. It cushions it just enough.

thank you for posting as a hobbyist one who has many books on silversmithing etc I never came across using the swage block for turning wire to bezel strip , thanks for mentioning it.

New to your channel. Hello.

and how is it after 6 years of using?

It would have been nice to watch you demonstrate with the heavier gauge wire required for that use. I have never seen that type of bench block - very interesting.

awesome instructional video! thank you for the demonstration :)

Stay in front of the camera

Brilliant....I found a mallard feather the other day and I will follow your process to paint it. Love the irridescence

It is almost 7 minutes before you begin to give useful information. Cut to the chase. That's my recommendation. I routinely skip through the chat and personal stuff. Just tell us what you know - and you DO know some great artistic advice. So get to it.

Actual demo begins at 9:00 in a 17 min video. Talk less. Do more. This is video not radio. You showed nothing besides hammering a wire. The visuals were poor too. Hold the camera steady and in focus. Demonstrate each tool clearly. Prep work is required before you make a video, don't wing it. Students are not teachers. Learn more before you teach others incorrectly.

Thanks!! What gage wire are you using?

A realistic mushroom like yellow tooth mushroom.

IM BLIND AS A BAT WHEN YOU GO OFF CAMERA FRAME..... A REALLY NEED TO SEE WHAT YOUR DOING SO THAT I UNDERSTAND THEY WORK YOUR DOING IF YOUR OFF CAMERA FRAME IN THE SHOW AN TELL THEN THE SHOW IS MISSING BUT THE TELL ISNT LOVE YOUR WORK BUT STILL GOTA STAY IN THE CAMERA FRAME PLEASE PLEASE PPPPPLLLLLEEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEEEE!!!!!

Have you got a video on painting a mushroom?

She doesn't show what she is talking about!!!

I loved painting this duck. Do you have or know of a KZbin video for painting a Dragon Tooth mushroom or a similar mushroom?

Didn't learn nothing but how to quit and not finish thanks

They dont sell such a set in my country, there are cheap doming blocks but the metal and quality is not as good. And if I buy it from the link the shipment costs about 120% of the product itself. Oh well.

You just had a bunch of wires put together and you did some crazy thing where you were making up some crazy rhyme…He didn’t finish the bracelet and I am left with more questions than ever. You cannot be proud of this video because it sucks you’ve taught me nothing.

But WHAT do I use it for... how they are used seemed self explanatory but I do have history with other tools in fairness. Thumbnail mildly misleading, having just come across one of these sets was long for what they are used for... jewelry somehow I guess, explains why I haven't really seen the tool before.

You are off camera half of the time...how do you expect to learn...

As a non-binary human, I'm totally here for being represented by jellyfish. Those buddies are fab. 😄

As a retired aircraft mechanic, I can attest to the ability of these pliers to really get a uniform twist to the wire when used properly. They are a life saver for the hands when you have to twist multiple wires in a timely manner.

This is so cool I can't believe there isn't a bunch of comments talking about how cool it is!

The stone is called Septarian. Your work is gorgeous!

.

Would love to see more

Are you mass producing these now? 🤣. Very creative!

Great advice, thank you so much

Wow wow I loved your drawing, I am a great artist😭💫🌿 My friend paints like you, can you see his drawing and I hope you like it?☺️💕💕🌸 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZ_WiqWngradfcU

Tough crowd, we all have to learn somehow. Even with some negative feedback I can see you are trying hard to do something I know I couldn’t, make a video! Love the design. Keep at it.

Thank you

I just get my kit. I’m soooooo happy

This is beautiful , I loved watching , excellent work 😊

This is beautiful! You have an amazing talent!! :D

very confusing especially with all your rambling......can't really see what you are demonstrating and you don't give clear concise information.

Go wash your hands!!! Nobody likes to watch a demo with dirty fingernails being shown.

What size wire are you using?

I really want to make this but can’t find the first one?

That is crazy to watch! Your very talented! TFS have a blessed day ! 🤗💜

Hi. I was wondering if it's actually raining there while you paint or is it just something you put in the video? Thank you for sharing! God Bless!

Hello I’m trying to get back into drawling and I’m wondering if u could do a video on the drawling part

Why would you miss the video part when you tor everything up... that can be the most difficult phase. Uhh. Beginners need all these points. Otherwise great video.

lame... back in the early 80's I learned tole painted by instructions from a book... and practice. Was thinking I would get back in to it since am retired.. but I think I'll just jump in from my memory.

I am so amazed at the number of people on KZbin trying to teach other people something they know nothing about, and they admit that they do not know what they are doing from the start. Why?

I'm a beginner and I am so ever grateful that you are taking the time to make video and share even through your busy schedule. Thank you and Happy New Year to you 😉

Sorry you talk to much!! Instead of discribeing you say this way that a way the other way very bad. I think you are good artist and leave teach to others.

That's a great-looking mask! I'm an amateur mask maker myself. You should totally check out my concepts. :D

Hello good work question how would u finish the end of the bracelet?

Beautiful painting! Thank you so much for checking out our DecoArt Traditions Artist Acrylics and sharing your thoughts.
