[@reneekelly6508]

Not a regular Jewerly Store Saw!! You are So Sweet. Gifted!! Saw JUMP rings!!! Ty Ur the Best!!

[@consueloyoung4484]

Thank you Tania, I too make my jump rings. Instead of hammer harden them, I put them in the tumbler. Saves my hands, ears, and time. Happy to see that you do have some help!!!. 🙏🏼💗💐

[@4girlsjewelry]

Thank You 🙏 That is great idea 💡

Tumbling is a great idea.

Hi Tanya. I was so tickled to see this. I showed it to my husband and he too was tickled to see how your husband did the jump rings. How in the world you knew that I hated my jewelry saw is beyond me, but I can't do any of my stuff with it. So my husband weout and bought me the saw that you showed. AGAIN AND AGAIN I THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY WORK SO MUCH FUNNER, AND BETTER. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE CHAIN VIDYA. O I JUST CAN'T WAIT....Neither can Andy( my husband)

I love making my own jump rings. Letting the coils sit for a couple of days to give the wire time to adapt to the shape is something I have never thought about. I clip mine instead of sawing them, that is my lazy way.

[@4girlsjewelry]

:))))) IT DOES HELP

[@donnaandrews5426]

I love all your work, You are such an inspiration for newbies, I cant remember what tutorial you mention what you use to protect your finish jewelry in.

[@4girlsjewelry]

Thank YOOOU! I use ProtectaClear from Everbrite

[@naomiwendy2234]

I'm thinking that if you have a tumbler, that you could probably take your batches of coils and run them in the barrel for about an hour... That might save you on the time spent waiting for the "memory" of the wire to set... There are inexpensive tumblers out there for kids to start with... You'd also want to buy some steel shot as well... One more thing, if you tumble your coils, they'll come out polished and and shinier than you make like, but this can be remedied by patina-ing them with liver of sulfur... Or other various ways... Thanks for the tutorial, and I'll probably be heading out this weekend to get the saw and blades you mentioned... It will certainly save my jeweler's saw blades! Sorry for the long winded comment, thanks again, and I hope you and your family are well and safe! 🙏

[@4girlsjewelry]

I do have tumbler, but I barely use it 😂 Will definitely try:) Thank You 🙏

Hi Tanya, you showed a bar necklace near the end of this video. Do you have a video showing how you made it?

[@4girlsjewelry]

Yes, check my twisted coils tutorial…. I showed how to make it ♥️

[@rosanalbandian2572]

Yes, this is very useful, thank you for all of your information and thank your husband too. I do thank you for all of your videos. All of your jewelry is just beautiful. In this video you show a delicate chain. Did you make that chain also?

[@4girlsjewelry]

Going to check which i show😂

[@4girlsjewelry]

Just checked I have some commercial thin chain , it’s from Magic Novelty ( New Jersey located) not sure if they survived covid, and if they have copper chains, I ordered them like 4 years ago

[@minternet1]

Thank you 🙂

[@4girlsjewelry]

U are very welcome!!!! Hopefully it is helpful

[@lorimichels4515]

Hi. Thanks! Is there another way to saw the coils without holding the coil? I'm sure I will saw my finger off before I cut through to make a few jumper rings. Also, I couldn't find the saw or the blades. Any suggestions on where to find them?

[@4girlsjewelry]

I FOUND IN LOCAL HARDWARE STORE....MAYBE WEAR THICK GLOVES

[@katiewildes54]

I subscribed to your channel but for some reason I get no audio only from your channel, any other youtube videos I can hear the audio. Just wondering if there is a setting on your end that has cancelled audio for me. I will continue to search out an answer for this glitch if you do not have an answer for me. Love your work!!!

[@4girlsjewelry]

no, i dont cancel audio.... THANK YOU for subscribing

[@lisamattson70]

Hi 👋 I was curious on how you keep your coils from oxidizing when you store them? For all your wire actually? I have tarnish paper, but I’m always forgetting it or mislaying it lol (I really need to stop doing that! Aha!) I’m just wondering if there is another/better/easier way? Thank you for tutorial it was great and I learned a lot! Love, love, love your work! Especially the fact that it’s so organic! I wish I had the creativity that you do! You’re an inspiration to me!

[@4girlsjewelry]

I let them oxidize But each necklace or anything I finish I protect with ProtectaClear liquid, but I polish everything before i do it

[@lisamattson70]

@@4girlsjewelry thank you so much for that information! I did not know. I’m new to all of this! Shine first, then ProtectaClear liquid!!! Yay I love the name of that, I can see that being a valuable commodity to the work I’m sure! It’s great to know and I’m going to order some now. Do you have any tips on using that, that the directions do not tell you??? I also beadweave and I’ve been doing that for years. Never really have found anything that has turned out really good enough for me to stick with because they would just either not look right or be kind of chunky looking no matter what I tried. 😉

[@lisamattson70]

@@4girlsjewelry also, I have watched other videos of showing how to use the torch. I watched yours and I thought heck ya! I can deal with doing it that way! It’s fast, comes out wonderfully/almost perfectly in no time! So love that! I like how you work those in soooooooooooooo much!!! Thank you once again!

[@annhopy5326]

That is how I do my jump rings (holding to cut them) only I have always used a jewelers saw, it can be a bit delicate at times. I will check out about using this different type saw. Does it not leave a larger gap then a jewelers saw? Thank you for this video :)

[@4girlsjewelry]

I like, because that saw it’s not delicate, u can use little force It leaves a gap, I just tighten them

[@BlooStorm1]

I use a jewelers saw and run some blue painters tape around half of the coil before sawing. It helps hold it together on the back while sawing.

[@rowserm]

What is the type of saw called? I want to buy one. Thank you.

[@4girlsjewelry]

Have no idea, but LENOX brand

[@gemlava]

Hi tania..could you please send me the link for your saw ..? Thank you🌷

[@4girlsjewelry]

I got from Home Depot. It was years ago, not sure if they still have them

[@chythrag3123]

I made my own jump rings from the hardest wire, but they can be easily twisted even though they were hammered. in your video you didn’t talk about tumbling, so I am curious how did you achieve the stronger jump rings?

[@4girlsjewelry]

I always leave coils for several days… wire have memory… then i do jump rings, the way I filmed, and i hammer each one individually for a bit, they are very strong after u hammer… but I use very light tapping, don’t go strong, better more tapping, which takes longer, but no harsh hammering, so u won’t destroy shape

[@chythrag3123]

Thank you for the reply and details. The memory part is new for me, I will try this method and see how it goes. I am quite a beginner, fascinated with your methods, you have great skills and I am watching your videos to learn, thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@sandrasimpson3924]

Thank you Tanya and Tanya’s husband 😊

[@4girlsjewelry]

If u use tons of jump ring, that idea could be useful ❤️

[@SuperLLSD]

What size of wire do you use?

[@4girlsjewelry]

I use all kinds of wires, from 20 Ga and up!!!!

@@4girlsjewelry My pastor teacher just returned/escaped from the Ukraine 2 weeks ago. It was a horrible ordeal. We were all so very concerned that he would be ok. He travels there every year to teach at a bible school in Kiev. He helped others leave the country with him. It took days on the roads in Ukraine with helpful drivers and many hours of walking and being helped by people from other border countries. I have not personally experienced the horror of war, but my parents have. Thank you for coming to the USA. Thank you for sharing all your wonderful designs, you are so talented! I hope that you are happy here.
