Best teacher on YT. Thank you.

Wow, thanks!

12 years of Nancy greatness on KZbin.

[@NancyHamiltonJewelry]

Greatness? No. But, thank you! Can't believe it's been that long. It's been a great experience. Hope I can keep it together for 12 more!

[@polosandoval]

@@NancyHamiltonJewelry I’m not sure anyone can keep it together these days, but looking forward to it!

[@lou196t]

Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication to teaching us “how to” make jewelry. I’m loving the new videos with the excellent close-up shots. Well done!

[@NancyHamiltonJewelry]

Thank you so much!

[@Babette17C]

What a great video - I stumbled upon #2... now I need to go back and see #1 - - - then the last one. Most excellent. AND the ring? Why, it's gorgeous.

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TreseMari]

Thank you. Haven't done a marquette stone yet, so eager to try. I have a hammer head for my foredom but I also have a set of wood tools from Curt Story that work really well, especially if you have a soft stone. They are made from bloodwood.

[@Shukarr]
