HOW TO MAKE SPOON RINGS + Pepe Tools Ring Bender Review

In this video I show my process for making spoon rings.
This is much quicker than my old method, which required a torch, pliers, and lots of filing and sanding. This method doesn't damage the ring's surface.

[@Gibbyx67]

Man this is great stuff! I feel like I'm watching a mix of Snoop Dog and Bob Ross at the same time. It's mesmerizing watching you do your work. Thanks for making this video.

[@megang6880]

Nailed it

[@user-N20]

Snoop Ross

[@cadenpatel6334]

exactly

[@sandicolee6087]

It is also very mesmerizing listening to his voice. lol he needs to bust out a jewelry making book and just start reading it from cover to cover. Now that would be an amazing bedtime story

[@ark194]

Ha! I couldn’t put my finger on it…but yes. Snoop Dogg!

[@hfilascpc]

CrafsMan, you are my new Bob Ross. Whenever I am feeling just plain toxic and miserable I pull up one of your clips. You have such a kind a beautiful heart that is so infectious even through recorded video! This world is very lucky to have amazing gems like you. Keep on craftin!

[@TheCrafsMan]

I am humbled. Thanks so much for taking time to encourage me!

[@jeniferbrown8436]

I thought of Bob Ross too! So soft spoken and kind. ❤️

[@tyrutenishien7440]

Its says read more but it wont work....

[@MM-bn9dm]

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking!

[@bmhobson1530]

yes just like Bob but funnier

[@darrentollakson5687]

I have not had this much fun listening to a youtube channel in ALONG time- you sir should have a radio show

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thanks SO much, Darren! :D How'd you find out about the channel? I'm curious! :D

[@darrentollakson5687]

@@TheCrafsMan I just googled how to make spoon jewelry, and this is the first video that popped up- -totally enjoyed it, my family loved it also !

[@pavoninestudios]

I love how you call the hammer a "negotiator" - my husband I, when we were putting in a floor, started called the hammer "the persuader". 😊 Totally inspired to make rings like this!

[@FordFracture]

You have gotta have the most calming voice on KZbin ! Your one cool cat

[@michaelbennici9401]

I came here for the ring tutorial but stayed for that sultry voice. God bless you sir.

[@hadrian1552]

Bless you. Bless your lovely wife. Bless your family. Very grateful to find your channel.

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thank you so much!

[@ElainePetrakisMidnightCrafter]

You're just a joy! We love the Crafsman!!!

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thank you so much!

[@Ensoniqdude]

Crafsman, I have a suggestion instead of using steel wool. I dip my silver or silver plated spoons/forks in Tarn-X. It only takes about 5-10 seconds. That will take off the heavy tarnish.....BUT...sometimes it gets a white/hazy color after the Tarn-X. SO....the magic happens when get a box of baking soda (maybe from Fred’s Dollar Store) and then wet your spoon/fork with a bit of water and take a pinch of baking soda and rub it on the spoon. The baking soda is a very mild abrasive and will strip off the white/hazy finish in two shakes of a dog’s tail, leaving the spoon brilliantly shiny! It is awesome because you can mash a damp amount of baking soda in tiny crevices and just the pressure will go deep and polish the metal. I also dip an old toothbrush in water then dip it into some dry baking soda and rub the item to get into tiny spaces. When you think it’s polished, just rinse it off and dry it. You can even use a jewelry polishing cloth for more shine. Try it!! You will be amazed! It’s better than steel wool and more delicate on the spoons design. I know....coupons belong to Dark Vader, but if you have a coupon buy 2 boxes of baking soda a Fred’s because you will be using this tech on more than spoons! I promise.

[@pamgibbons2773]

I love the "negotiator ". You taught me how to use my new tool with humor. Thank you.

[@laurawilliamswilliams128]

His voice could defuse the most volatile situation, and I'm inspired my his creativity, and ingenuity

Spoon rings, too? Crafsman is so diverse, it's the only craft channel you need.

I wrote my comment before reading others and bingo, The Holly Spirit is evident to all. God Bless Brother.

[@PlainFlawa]

Thank you craftsman. Love this. Your explanation is so clear. You have a friendly voice.

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thanks so much, Jane! :D

[@toddweller]

I've said it before, any day there's a new Crafsman video is a great day!

[@TheCrafsMan]

Super nice of you, Todd! I appreciate the good vibes and encouragement.

[@jackrabbit7389]

this mans voice is relaxing to listen to and a very good teacher

[@puss1234able]

You are a wonderful, generous teacher…with a voice I could listen to all day. (Loved the term ‘negotiator’!) Thank you very much. Love from Toronto, Canada.

[@zacharysandberg]

I love that your videos make it feel like I’m actually sitting with you making rings around your kitchen table. This is a very underrated production aesthetic. Pair that with your unique narration and your videos are extremely fun and relaxing to watch!

[@TheCrafsMan]

I appreciate that so much, Zachary. It's super encouraging to me. Thank you for taking the time to leave such feedback!

[@NancyRileyNuniverse]

i love that we get to hear you without music in the background!!😉

[@jaysonownsby3540]

Your videos take me to a special place in my mind, reminding me of times with my grandfather and dad working out in the wood shop when I was a child. I can still smell whiffs of smoke from the pipe papaw puffed on while we were out there. Thanks for the video and trip down memory lane. Keep doing you my friend, I'll always tune in!

[@TheCrafsMan]

Jayson, I very much enjoyed reading that description. It's very satisfying to know that my videos can help a person remember good old times with family. Thank you for taking time to share this with me - it truly means a lot.

[@susanncarter6201]

Me too!

[@angelamitchell1404]

You Are Frackin' Awesome!!! I have to watch your tutorials more than once because the precious narrator is an art in its own!!! Thank you!!!

[@MissMuffinCookie]

Dearest Crafsman, your genuine joy in creating things and teaching how to do it soothes my soul. Not only that, but seeing people in the comments share advice and jokes gives me hope. Thank you from France for making the Internet a little more wholesome :)

[@felicityhoneycutt8570]

I've never wanted a big diamond ring for my wedding. When me and my love get married i think spoon rings with a little gem in it would feel rustic and represents our relationship well. We never had much, living in Louisiana in the backwoods.

[@richardmarriott2646]

My friend your work is awesome and is helping a U.K. Veteran relax and look forward to creating nice things for a change. Many thanks Rich M and please keep posting ideas.

[@j.stribling2565]

I have no interest in making paintings myself, but I watched Bob Ross. So it is with the Crafsman. A very pleasant pastime just to listen and watch him work.

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thank you so much!

[@jaggedoriginals-313]

This is probably one of the best how to videos. Thank you sharing!

[@deanc9195]

I really want a CrafsMan ringtone. I wouldn’t hear it but it would make me happy anyway

[@TheCrafsMan]

I was wondering how that would sound. :D "Ring... ring..." You got me thinking about it now! ;)

[@billb.5183]

I did a fist pump when I saw there was a new Crafsman video today!! Another fun and informative video my friend. Hoping to see more real soon. =)

[@TheCrafsMan]

:D :D :D Man, I like reading comments like this. Y'all sure warm my heart. Thanks so much!!!!!

[@cooperality]

“ and I’ll make you a biscuit “ that was the most casual mention of some sort of bribe. 10/10 content.

[@tina5670]

You are the best teacher on You Tube! You didn't talk for 15 minutes saying the same thing over and over and you kept it simple and made it easy. I need simple and easy! LOL Thank you for showing us and Pepe Tools should be paying you because you actually make me want to buy one for the first time!

[@flyingpictures1100]

I have this little project going on and I needed a welder (well I thought I did) so I am bemoaning the fact that not only do I not own a welder, I have never welded. Anyhow I came across your silver soldering Videos and for my application its exactly what I need. Thank you very much, I really like your presentation style. I will stay and watch your channel grow even bigger. Look at the comments your people love you haha.:)

[@TheCrafsMan]

Hey there! Sounds like we went through a similar process! I was looking for a way to join metal without having to buy an expensive welding machine. Since my projects are usually of a smaller nature (jewelry, sculptures, etc.) I was delighted to learn about silver soldering, and that it was a STRONG method. Happy to have shared it, and delighted that people like you have found it useful! :)

[@diytherapy2644]

Man, this vídeos are a delight to watch. Really great. Keep them coming.

[@TheCrafsMan]

So glad you like them!

[@harleymama668]

Has anyone ever told u that u sound like Bob Ross? That being said is a huge compliment! This is the first time I’m watching ur channel n I am a fan Already ! Thank you for teaching all u do ! Absolutely Beautiful work u do! 🥰😇🙏🌞🌝💫

I always appreciate your encouragement, kittenesque! (And your username tickles me! LOL!)

Been watching several videos on spoon rings. This is by far the easiest and most simple to understand. And your voice is so soothing and mesmerizing. I could listen to you all day.

[@lynnmclemore1140]

Thank you. My daughter are going to start making rings and earrings. You helped us decide we wanted to to this.

[@angelagladwell354]

No, please don't'! I use your videos to drift off to sleep too! Love your voice. So soothing! I'd love a video of you reflecting on life with just rain in the background. A long one! That would be soo great!

[@rachelmorley7735]

I enjoyed watching your video. Super calming relaxing voice and you get to the point. The problem solving to shape it was also useful. I’m really considering buying a spoon bender. Living in New Zealand has it challenges with buying supplies at an affordable price but will check out your link below because why not help someone while making a purchase. All the best your crafting.

[@sleightlyhandy889]

TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin No problem! You're doing well, that's all that matters. And honestly, the quality you give from one video is a lot better than 10 videos from some other channels, so this is all good. Keep up the good work!

[@hunterr.9594]

Those make awesome napkin rings as well.

[@TheCrafsMan]

You're right! (And are actually a little easier to bend, because the diameter is larger.) :)

Please never stop doing videos. Don’t ever leave us.

Dude is awesome. My granddaughter is asking for a kit to learn how to make spoon rings. He is an inspiration for her! I wish he'd post another video.

[@GhettoGumball]

I came off of a phone meeting all grumpy and ornery. Sat down with a nasty microwave breakfast burrito, listened to the CrafsMan's smooth voice and I am right as rain. I need to have the CrafsMan record a message I can play in my office that says "Jeff ain't available right now. Someone's made him rather grumpy, so it would be better if you just ran off and found something else to do until he finishes his nasty breakfast burrito." Thanks CrafsMan! As always, great video!
