The restraint of this man, living in Japan and not making that the focus of his channel.

Its important for me to be able to live my life without feeling like I've got to document every single thing out here.

Never worked with copper but love that colour? Could this technique be used for jewelry? Can it be polished? Thanks for all your videos by the way!

[@malcolmbarclay9313]

I think it turned out so blue because of the use of ammonia. There's another chemical (that I forget which) that gives it a more green colour. Thanks for the video and especially to let us know that spray lacquer helps keep it together! :)

[@wishdoctor4164]

Will the colour stay? Or do you need to do something else to keep it turquoise?

[@DiamondMounter]

Colour seems permanent but it can be chipped off. I gave mine a coat of spray lacquer
