[ Korean Craft ] SILVER RING Making process / KEUM-BOO Technique

[@peterstoffels5550]

Nice to see, that things go flying even when professionals are at work. My silver smithing corner is tiny and I spend half my time crawling on he floor :D Awesome work!!!

I agree with you. I also like to make mistakes. Thank you very much for your comment~

[@SilverMeister]

다들 그리 오해를 하시는데요, 화상을 입은 것은 아니고요.... 여러가지 쇠로 된 도구들을 오랜시간 손에 쥐고 작업을 하기 때문에 생기는 상처 입니다. 어떤 작업을 하는가에 따라, 좀 괜찮을 때도 있고, 심해 질 때도 있고 그렇습니다. 코멘트, 감사합니다^^

[@stevegarland7075]

Silver Meister, where do you purchase your gold leaf? I bought a package from India but it is to thin to use in your application? Also did you make your own calipers? Thanks for your videos!

[@SilverMeister]

Gold leaf is ordered and used at an offline factory in Korea. Calipers are sold at tool stores, and were purchased about 30 years ago. thanks~

[@stevegarland7075]

Silver Meister, is it possible to get the name of the company where you purchase the gold leaf you use on your projects? I do have calipers I bought years ago but there heavy in gauge, I will disassemble and file to have a more delicate tool. Thank you for your quick response and sharing your skills!

[@pijnto]

You need to order "Gold foil" not leaf, leaf is too thin

[@stevegarland7075]

@@pijnto thank you, did not know that.

[@pjhalchemy]

Thank you for the lessons from casting to finished rings. Beautifully done and beautiful pieces. Can you please tell us what the blue green liquid in the warm tank is. I assume some kind of cleaner for after quenching. Thanks again, I always enjoy your videos and artisanship!

[@SilverMeister]

What's in the warm tank is a dilute sulfuric acid solution. 90% water + 10% sulfuric acid undiluted solution It is clear at first, but turns into a turquoise color as you use it. When the color darkens, dilute it with a lot of water and throw it away, new use again.

[@pjhalchemy]

[@DianneCulbertsonJacques]

Your videos are very inspiring and your work is beautiful!. Is there a difference between potassium sulfide and liver of sulphur? I have made keum boo rings using LOS only to have it wear off very quickly.

[@SilverMeister]

I'm not sure what the difference is between potassium sulfide and liver of sulphur. The one I use is called "황화칼륨" in Korean. It seems that communication may be difficult through translation. Thank you for giving me a good review of my work and video.

[@YAHANSEN]

Very good job!!! for what you are using camail oil??? what did oil doo??

[@SilverMeister]

Camellia oil is vegan oil. The reason for applying oil is to delay and protect the oxidation of the silver surface. A very thin oil film protects the surface. After applying the oil, clean it again to finish. The camellia oil that I use is safe to eat. It is a very good natural oil that is harmless to the human body even when the ring is worn on the hand.

[@YAHANSEN]

@@SilverMeister thank you very much!!

[@marklengal9990]

Was this silver or pewter? You make it look so easy.

[@SilverMeister]

Silver and pewter are completely different things. They are different enough not to be confused, and the processing techniques are completely different. As pewter does not bend, it breaks and melts at a low melting temperature. is it silver? Are you a pewter? It would be rude to ask. But, I know that you are a compliment to me. Thank you.

[@jeromemendiasii1566]

Awesome video, I loved how the ring turned out! I have a question is this keum boo technique possible on applications where it involves fusing white gold and gold to make a two tone look like with this ring?

[@SilverMeister]

Kum-boo cannot be used on alloyed gold. Only,,,, You can attach gold parts on top of pure gold, Gold can only be placed on silver. Of course, it cannot be applied to copper alloys. The best way is to, Try it yourself. You know when you do it.

Nice work! Thank you for sharing, I've learned a lot from you're videos! I've wanted to ask you, from a log period, from where do you buy you're gold sheet? I'm working with 23k and is not that thick. Thank you!

[@SilverMeister]

I use an offline manufacturing company in Korea to make a custom-made gold sheet. The thickness of the gold I use is, The weight of gold, the size of a postcard, is about 3 to 4 g,,, That's how thick it is. thanks~

[@lupapera]

Ir goes best with the pen, MHO. It makes it look so refined.

[@jonfortner3919]

What is the blue liquid you kept using after quenching?

[@SilverMeister]

Nonferrous metals (gold, silver, copper, aluminum, etc.) are different from general ferrous metals, In each process, it must be pickled. When dealing with silver, mainly sulfuric acid is diluted in water and used. Mix about 10% sulfuric acid and 90% water. When mixing this, it is safe to add sulfuric acid to water. Always keep the diluted acid warm. 50 to 70 degrees Celsius is suitable. By pickling, By removing borax residues and various impurities generated during work It plays a role in ensuring that it is always clean.

[@TomaszLodowski]

You have a very awesome KZbin channel. I would like to apply the keum-boo technique to my artistry but since I'm just getting into it I would like to ask you for some pointers especially since you have great experience with what you do based on the content you upload and the products that you make. - Are there any books or other materials that I can purchase about learning the Keum-boo technique? - Which type of gold foil or gold leaf to purchase for use with .999 silver or .925 silver? If you can send a link to the one you use I would greatly appreciate it.

[@SilverMeister]

The thickness of the gold sheet,,, A postcard-sized gold sheet is about 3-4g. That's about the thickness. It is about the thickness of a regular paper. Heating these metals to a temperature between 260~370°C increases the movement of the atoms. When pressure is added, this causes an electron exchange at the surface between the two metals, creating a permanent diffusion bond. This diffusion bond occurs far below the soldering temperature for either metal (Dhein, 2004). Nothing is permanent in this world. It may wear out over time. Physical contact may cause it to peel off. It doesn't go away easily with the passage of time. Because silver and gold became one. This is different from normal plating.

[@SilverMeister]

I learned all the information about keumboo from Korean teachers and books in Korea. The gold paper used in keumboo technique is used by directly stretching pure gold thinly, and it is also purchased offline in Korea. Keumboo can be made of either pure silver or 925, but it only adheres well when it goes through a cleaning process (removing fire scale) by applying heat and repeating pickling. Check out my learning video about gold.

What is the black tipped tool you use for the gold leaf?

I don't know what the black tipped tool is talking about. Maybe a metal stick? If this is the case, it is an iron rod polished with carbide.

The acid I use is a 10% weak acid. As for medical stainless steel bowls, there is no problem. I have been using this bowl since 1991.

[@SilverMeister]

I do not weld. What I do is solder. Welding and soldering are completely different things. And, it is difficult to show everything in the video. edit. A lot of work that seems to be lacking is done outside of the video. Since you are not right next to me, it is impossible to give all the details in translation.
