Loved how you put texture on the band! A stone setting burr would help you set the stone.

Hi there! Was the mixture in the syringe just water and clay? Thank you for making such an amazing video

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Thank you for your feedback! We do not create them on our own. We buy the syringes already filled with clay. We assume that the manufacturer use a different binder and a bit more water than normal silverclay. Greetings 😊

[@anaisgregoire2995]

Great video! If you don't mind sharing, what surface did you fire your clay on? I've seen a video of someone using it to make granulation, but I couldn’t get an answer from them!

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Thank you for your feedback! We use a ceramic fiber mat. 😊

[@denisalam1754]

How long did you torch the clay for?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

About 4 minutes 😊

Gorgeous ❣️ When you make the ring, does it shrink? Do you make it a little bigger then? Im an artist and I want to make weddingrings for my man and me❤😊

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Thank you! 😊Yes metal clay shrinks a bit. Depending on what brand you use it shrinks more or less. We recommend using Art Clay Silver as it has only a shrinkage of about 9%. We wish you the best! 🎊

@@metalclay-silberladen-at Thank you ❣️I will try that ❤️👍

[@mollyrae4]

Hi! Is the magnetic tumbler a necessary part of the process? Or can you skip that part

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

It is not necessary but a very convenient way to polish your jewellery. 😊

[@bluejin138]

Excellent 👍🏻🤩💙

Thank You! 😊

What type of wax do you use to create molds?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Wunderbar 👍

Vielen Dank! 😊

[@scratchd0g]

Wonder-bar? Sounds delicious

[@mariaatencio7428]

what are you using to keep the clay wet? is it water?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Yes, you can use water to rehydrate your clay. There is also PMC Aqua, which makes the clay even smoother and more flexible. This is advantageous for more complex jewelry pieces. For simple rehydration, (ideally distilled) water is sufficient. 😊

cool

[@ursulamaier729]

Mir gefällt mir gefällt das Zusammenspiel der polierten Fläche und dem weißen, unbehandelten. Bei mir wird aber der weiße Teil im Lauf der Wochen immer gelblicher. Was kann ich dagegen machen, dass der Schmuck so schön hell bleibt?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Der menschliche Körper scheidet zum Teil, je nach Ernährung, Medikamentenkonsum etc., Schwefel aus. Dies führt dazu, dass beim Einen das Schmuckstück schneller und beim Anderen langsamer/nicht anläuft. Einfach das Schmuckstück erneut polieren. Dazu kannst du ein Poliertuch oder einen Buffer zum Beispiel verwenden. Wenn du die weiße Schicht behalten möchtest, kannst du das Schmuckstück erneut brennen. Dabei verschwindet der Schwefel. Liebe Grüße 😊

What to do when the ring gets old n gets pink?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

If by the pink discoloration you mean that the silver ring has oxidized, there are several options. You can simply polish the discolored area again with a sanding sponge/sanding tool, or you can re-fire the jewelry piece, provided there are no heat-sensitive parts like stones or pearls, etc. We hope this helps. Best regards. ☺

Cual es el nombre comercial de esa pasta y como prepararla

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

We are working with Prometheus Silverclay in this video. This metal clay is pre-mixed and can be used immediately. Alternatively, we also recommend Art Clay Silver and PMC.

[@dootdootclaire]

Does the clay stick to the post it note at all?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

The Post-it is there so that you can more easily remove the dried ring from the mandrel. Metal clay shrinks very little during drying. You can tear the Post-it and remove the ring more easily. In general, the metal clay must be placed tightly on the mandrel; if it's too loose, you need to tighten it again. Greetings 😊

[@bluejin138]

Do you deliver to the United States?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Unfortunately not at the moment 🥲

[@yuulagigalau-em9rk]

Where did you buy that clay?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

We do sell it in our onlineshop Silberladen.at Europe-wide.

Wie erstelle ich mir so ne Spritze mit Metal Clay? Was muss ich anmischen?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

Hallo, die im Video gezeigte Spritze wurde nicht selbst gemacht. Alle größeren Metal Clay Hersteller, wie Art Clay, PMC und Prometheus stellen bereits fertige Spritzen her. Liebe Grüße 😊

[@069custom5]

@@metalclay-silberladen-atkann man denn die Enden der Ringe ohne Spritze zusammenführen? Ich habe mir von euch das Starterkit für Ringe geholt (Prometheus) und da ist ja keine dabei gewesen.. Wenn es ohne geht - mit Wasser und nem Pinsel möglich?

[@metalclay-silberladen-at]

@@069custom5 Ja das geht auch ohne Spritze, mit Wasser. Du kannst auch etwas Modelliermasse und Wasser mit einem Spatel zu Paste vermischen und die Paste zum Verbinden und Ausbessern verwenden. Oder du sammelst den Schleifstaub und gibst etwas Wasser dazu. Liebe Grüße
