How To Add 3D Hollow Elements To Your Jewellery Designs | 12 Months Of Metal

Kim's back with another hollow jewellery making tutorial! This video shows you how to use press formed metal to create 3D hollow forms.
Kim - "You can construct them by hand like the pendant we made in the last video or you can use press forming or 'pressings' as a way to add 3D, hollow elements. Pressings are flat sheet metal that has been pressed into a shaped mold or 'die'. You've probably seen me hammer solid wire and metal balls into my wire dies and shot plates but you can also press flat sheet into similar dies to create hollow forms. These little pressings are from Charlie Rosser at Wild Strawberry Seeds. You can find the Wild Strawberry Seeds page on Facebook if you'd like to look at whats she's been up to and all the little solderable accents she's made so far."

This is a old video but I found it very informative and explained very well step by step in a easy manner that can be done by someone who is just learning. I was just curious about hollow jewelry and the formation of it and came across this video. I watched it from start to finish it held my attention very well which is something that's not easy to do lol

I found this video very helpful as usual, but I am very interested in the lessons that you spoke about, because I was thinking about getting the DWP to help me with learning how to do silversmithing properly, with a view to doing it for a living, because I have disabilities that stop me from doing my usual job(share/commercial fishing) or anything else that I used to do(because I used to do very physical work, like landscaping/forestry; building and cable laying, whenever I was unable to go to sea) to earn my wages, so are your courses available to people that would be using the DWP for support and financing the course. Also, I have been using the solder paste, on flattened and rolled up wire, to make the wire that’s got a ball on one end for attaching beads to chain etc, and I was wondering if you could tell me/us of a better way to make these wires with a ball on the end(I have forgotten what they are called), so once again I thank you in advance, for any reply, as well as the thanks for these excellent videos......... Jon.
