This was a really helpful video ❤️ I'm learning slowly to make rings and the way you communicate makes everything very easy to understand 😙 You're a wonderful artist, I can't wait to see more of your content!!

[@ShapingSilver]

That's a nice little project. I think I'm going to do it with my daughter in the winter vacation. Thanks for sharing.

[@theindigomuse]

Thank you so much for your video! Love it! Could you please send me the part two link? I couldnt find it. Thank you!!

[@nickcheney8937]

That is really really cool project even for a beginner like me. Just discovered your channel. My eyes are peeled to the screen. Amazing stuff. Keep it up.

Very nice work! I am so happy to have found you. Your work is so professional. I sell Jade to my customers in USA. I totally understand your dilemma about the international postal service. I live in Thailand. Last year, A customer had to wait almost a year for her package to get to Hawaii. We track everything for our customers but there is only so much we can do. I have even sat all night long on the phone with USPS trying to locate a missing package, many times. The Covid pandemic has made it very difficult for sending stuff. I just hope customers understand what we go through for them. Thank you for sharing your skills.

[@DiamondMounter]

I think it may improve quite soon

[@hosannaliving]

Really enjoyed watching this video. I am working on becoming more precise and learned so many good tips from you! Can tell you truly take pride in your work and enjoy it!!

For seating the shank in the setting I usually use a "chernier file". A sort of flat file that only has teeth on the edges. Makes things a lot easier

[@leeperrybender5811]

Where do you find them? I've been looking for several years now!

[@DiamondMounter]

​@@leeperrybender5811 Ive never seen a file like that before. Maybe if you need one just get a grinder and modify a normal flat needle file

[@lorrainebecchetti4865]

I really love watching you make beautiful pieces of jewelry which I love to do but but I I never bought a soldering piece piece of equipment. Could you show making a ring ring 💍 without a soldering piece piece of equipment..I UNDERSTAND EVERYONE HAS one but I always forget to get one. ❤

[@oneidatorres5740]

Thank you so much for these videos

[@cathmaguire7887]

Great video. I have no mill, is this technique still possible? Thanks

[@diegomills7951]

Gracias por estos videos y compartir conocimiento. Lo haces muy bien y ayuda a muchos que no tenemos acceso a esa calidad de informacion realmente util. Saludos desde Argentina!

[@DiamondMounter]

Gracias por ver. ¡Estoy muy feliz de que la gente encuentre útiles los videos!

[@JayDub_143]

Oh I wanted to tell you the "mini ring stick" they call them Bezel Mandrels in the US. I purchased a round and an oval one because you know the Master has them I needed them too 😁

[@hosannaliving]

What guage silver strip did you use for the bigger stone’s collet?

[@rexgeorg7324]

love your banter bro

[@pennyalbertella8978]

Hi Chris. Great video as ever - I can’t find part 2 though. I tried here and the patrons posts. Am I missing it?!

[@DiamondMounter]

No its not up yet. Very sorry for the delay! Im about to start working on it again today. I will finish it as soon as I can

[@pennyalbertella8978]

Ah that would explain it! No apology needed! Looking forward to its! X

[@joestrachan-wills6511]

Right then chris , let’s see you do some gold 😃 Ooooo the jeopardy 🙌

[@StrykerTV]

Where do you get your pliers from?

[@DiamondMounter]

any jewellery tool supply shop!

[@Yukkaguitar]

Great video!

[@tonyconyerd7501]

Can you tell me what torch you are using because I can't seem to get enough heat for the solder to flow if I hold the piece in third hand. I am using a dremel torch but don't have the space for a professional set up. Thanks

[@DiamondMounter]

oxy and propane are best for jewellers. Very hot flame that doesn't burn too brightly

[@Robbievigil]

How do feel about using Argentium and precipitation hardening? Is it worth the extra time to hardening it?

[@DiamondMounter]

Never heard of Argentium before so i just googled it. Sounds like good stuff Im gonna try to get some

[@Robbievigil]

@@DiamondMounter search Ronda Coryell she's done tons of videos on it.

[@surgicalshot1]

Argentium is great to work with.

[@magorzata8213]

Please don't laught, I know that you are an experienced jeweler, I would like to ask as a very beginner person, what I can do with some scrap of sterling silver, e.g. after making a ring or after cutting something out of a silver sheet. I work from home and I have no special devices . Thank you for your chanel you are very helpful

[@JayDub_143]

I use scrap silver in a bunch of pretty resourceful ways.. You can ball it up to make decorative elements which you can use in shot plates or just as a ball, you can also make a larger ball then flatten it out with a hammer and use stamps to either put a design on the piece or I have found even initials are useful and then I will add a birthstone to make it a personalized piece of jewelry. I hope a couple of these help😁

[@DiamondMounter]

Yes like JaNet said if you can melt it in to small balls and flatten them with a hammer to get small round shapes
