Thank you so much for your lovely comment 💫

It's important to set up a vacum cleaner or dust extraction set up for polishing. I also now use a vacum cleaner when grinding with cratex wheels and sanding with discs and emery paper at my bench. I want healthy lungs into my old age which is approaching at an ever increasing rate!! Nice vid and love your dog😊

You’re most welcome! Happy to help!

[@rahadarabi7609]

Thanks a lot 😍♥️

[@ceciliam7144]

Lovely, I will give it a try! Can I know the thickness of the wire you used for this rings? Thanks ❤

[@celeniarojas427]

Nice video. There is a 21 band rolling ring, is the process the same to make It?

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

I have never tried it with so many, but the maths should work regardless of how many bands you incorporate. If you try it let us know how it turns out!

[@KarelZabala]

Hi 👋🏼 I just made this ring thanks to your tutorial but I find that the ring fits a little tight 😅 would you recommend going maybe half a size more for this kind of ring? Each one individually fits perfectly. Also, could you share the link of you emery sponges?

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

That’s great! Did you follow the equation? If your rings fit individually then they are too small. The equation accounts for the extra ring depth of each ring so individually they should be noticeably too big. Sorry for the super long link! These are the emery sponges: www.amazon.com/320-2500-Sanding-Sandpaper-Furniture-Polishing/dp/B0BF9WSWJ2?crid=1D6QIWFR1P7G&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.lXrxntHUX602T-o9HSpghjKAm3nU55XRdUYkt7iKKRO0qZytNsurimeZAMCieGgIPIgif3ry1RR5YQ1_xgKsoJXr1hSmNnVmNNKzye3cYz_7TW5YpmWTgRtmhMLESG49b0z3LO5ii9oWJo7NPTinqaBI1pzfhibxGUE8c6g9OwaE8pEA3AQu4Rystv8NRww38IJxKTjOdsuUNdFoKy0UY9cgmElekq8BVHRrOsM2kj9xNJhOfDx7GJ8ruVxbESfsXixJbqcC0YjcdgMnSYeBGscDLkRZ09bhUFN_WKir3Mc.Kgskdhj-EJv97S74OFlfKQKzUMYkaxrzd5SeXHQGAUo&dib_tag=se&keywords=sanding+pads&language=en_US&linkCode=ll1&linkId=339d6243dce8067804de570d973d5f8b&psc=1&qid=1718810104&ref_=as_li_ss_tl&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&sprefix=sanding+pads,aps,221&sr=8-2-spons&tag=cognacjewel01-20

[@KarelZabala]

@@Cognac_Jewellery_School i think i didn’t measure correctly 🥲😅

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

So easily done - It’s not a straightforward equation at all 🫠

[@sarabeujekian7019]

So if I understand correctly, you only need to size the rings like you would a single ring? No need to account for the extra thickness of having intertwined rings? Love the pickle breaks by the way! 🔥

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

Thanks so much for your comment! Size the rings like you would a normal ring and then add to that the thickness of the wire multiplied by the number of rings you’re interlinking. So if your wire is 1mm thick and you want to interlink three rings together you would multiply your 1mm(thickness) by 3(rings) (1x3=3) and add that 3mm to the length of each ring. I hope that makes sense!

[@sarabeujekian7019]

@@Cognac_Jewellery_School Totally! so basically let's say I'm a size 7, I'd do ((17.3+1)*3.14)+3 ?

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

Sorry I missed your reply! Yes, that’s it!

[@ionagray8934]

hi! i’m going to attempt to make this ring today 😅 i’ve measured my finger and its size D, but can’t see the equation properly so worried it will be the wrong size! is there any way you could help please? 🙏

[@ionagray8934]

also, i have 11ga silver wire!

[@markmanning2921]

I have very few hard fast rules for doggies but there is one that is not negotiable. NO KISSING ON THE LIPS!!! lol

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

What do you mean you don’t want a dog snog?🥴💋 You are of course quite right - and thanks for watching to the end! 😄

[@markmanning2921]

@@Cognac_Jewellery_SchoolRules are rules! lol and you did great work, i often see jewelers use WAY too much solder and it always makes cleanup more difficult. You got it right - the doggie not so much

[@Cognac_Jewellery_School]

Haha, thanks so much. I actually really appreciate that - seeing people use way more solder than is necessary is a secret bugbear of mine 🤫 it’s such a waste and makes so much more work!
