Making a Ring using Copper Wire and African Black Wood on a lathe

[@johnnyruins9025]

great ring love the double bands

[@mcliffcornette9635]

Thank you for showing how you do things. Using the Dremel sander for the curve is something I will do.

[@neftalilomeli847]

Gracias

[@liamc1102]

Bloody awesome, Brother. I look forward to making something similar myself very soon!

[@plutus205]

Beautiful. 24k gold wire would be awesome also.

Outstanding work!

[@joshuaplank883]

That came out really nice. Mind sharing what you used for the finish? Ive tried a couple different epoxies but they all wear off after a few months.

[@thezuricollection1332]

I am looing for a good epoxy - have you found something yet?

[@joshuaplank883]

@@thezuricollection1332 unfortunately no.

[@imakrewitatl]

⁠​⁠@@joshuaplank883 Have you tried the CA glue finish method yet? It holds up better than epoxy in my opinion if applied thoroughly and doesn't get cloudy like epoxy/resin sometimes can. Also if you shower or wash dishes with your ring on it will tarnish almost any finish alot quicker

[@Bajanbikerrob]

Looks great and I like to try to make a ring like that . What are you coating the ring with? it looks like it is UV activated amd I correct about that?

[@aquietplace3933]

Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing. :)

What is the chuck you use for the lathe to attach the ring? Im looking to get one but not finding any. How are they called

[@noahc6544]

The 4 jaw chuck? or the ring mandrel

[@mornamcrae]

Hey buddy. Do you mind me asking what type of lathe you are using?

[@roamingrino]

What gauge of copper wire do you use?

[@laurabrenphotography7948]

One word is all I can say AWESOME... Found your channel by accident but after what I saw you have a new member to your fan club cheers Brenden Ps ... can I have some info on the sale of your work :)

[@hjkrings9976]

Hey Thank you very much for your support and kind words! Very much appreciated. Our store is www.etsy.com/shop/hjkrings there you can see all the current designs 🙏😊

[@ACDesignsGarage]

Awesome video, im a youtube ring maker also, that ring is awesome, is the clear alumi uv, if so how do you like it? Keep up the Rad work

[@hjkrings9976]

Hey yes it is Alumi UV. I like it, it's very strong. Gotta make sure it goes on as smooth as possible or there's alot of sanding to do ✌ personally I rather it over a CA finish. What do you use?

[@ACDesignsGarage]

@@hjkrings9976 I usually use ca, but i would like to try the alumi uv, ca is just easy and cheap lol and i just make rings for fun

[@hjkrings9976]

@@ACDesignsGarage Yeah give it a go you might prefer it, it's also pretty cheap! 👍👍

[@WakizashiSabre]

Hello, awesome work. May i ask about the laquer at the end? Is it some kind of UV glue? Thanks.

[@hjkrings9976]

Hey yes it is a resin that cures with UV light. There's heaps of types you can buy online

[@WakizashiSabre]

@@hjkrings9976 Thanks for the info and about the wire... Seems easy on a video, but was quite a chore when i tried th at first... Superglue did not work... wire was not smooth... oh well, good experience still. :)

[@PRH123]

You didn't need to solder the ends of the ring together...? seems it might come apart....

[@pedroelcubano1]

Great work buddy... Excellent. How do you call that piece you add to the chuck to mount the ring.?

[@mallory6651]

Expanding ring mandrel

[@TheloniusIcy]

wondering if I should buy this or make this myself

[@pedroelcubano1]

The piece you adjust at 2.11

[@stevem268]

love the look of the copper, beautiful ring! what guage wire are you using?

[@hjkrings9976]

Thank you :) that's a 16g wire

What is the specific size and name of the piece you put on your drill press after the metal drill bit (the red one)

@@kianadams2666 looks to me like a hole saw about 1 to 1 1/2 inches

[@이진성-p9f]

i have a question. what are you doing on 6:41? what's role of the light?

[@mallory6651]

He's curing the ring in a uv bath. The "hole" is duct tape.

[@이진성-p9f]

@@mallory6651 thank you. one more. why curing the ring in a uv?

[@mallory6651]

@@이진성-p9f I meant masking tape not duct tape lol my bad. A UV resin was used as a finish which specifically cures via UV. Youre not able to cure it fully with just sunlight. The finish protects the ring from the elements more than CA finish.
