Silver ring made with fusion in cuttlebone mold

[@DSMownedU]

Great work! You just taught me a new technique. I've said this before but I've learned a lot from you. I just fabricated a $48,000 platinum engagement ring for a customer. I wasn't doing any custom work at all a year ago, before I found your channel. Thanks so much!

[@albertledesma5173]

Justin Shuman $48,000? As in USD?

[@DSMownedU]

Albert Ledesma Yes $48,000 USD. It had a 1.50ct (D,VVS1) center diamond, two 0.54ct (D,VVS1) diamonds next to the center, and ten 0.06ct (D,VVS1) diamonds going down the sides. I wish there was a way I could post a picture in the comments.

[@scaffoal]

I'm happy, thank you

[@Liastnir]

Wow, that's a neat job to have been able to accomplish!

[@Ilovetheplatypus]

I didn't even know there were still people doing cuttlebone casting. That's awesome.

[@scaffoal]

thanks, I think that being a craftsman, means to know as much as possible and use all the techniques as needed.

[@Darkice77]

I tried the cuttlefish method and its too much finish work unless you like the pattern it makes. I started using fine perlite powder mixed with fine cement powder. I can make like a thousand molds now for about 50 bucks and they turn out almost perfect. With fine and exact detail.

[@SculptyWorks]

Good job! I love the simplicity of cuttlebone casting! I use it quite often!

[@scaffoal]

thank you

[@MIZTAHBORZALINO]

thank you Mr. scalfoal, you gave me a good idea as an apprentice

your welcome

[@bettybho2168]

I prefer this technique of jewellery making to newer technologies because the jewellery looks way cooler than mass produced run of the mill stuff everybody else has.

[@gregorytangalos811]

The ring is a real gem... Your work is as usual. Amazing A REAL pro..... And the music on this video was the best....especially the first song..... Thank you for teaching. Me...

Absolutely beautiful work. I love both turquois and silver. Thanks for sharing.

[@chrisbloodworth72]

I had heard a bout cuttlebone casting but could hardly find anything about it. Nice to see someone doing it. But yeah very low mold impression, still, it's nice to see how and what the outcome is. Thanks!

I would love to have bendy thumbs, I see so many hand craft worker with thumbs like yours, makes holding these little Curved items much easier, mine are straight have no give in the top joints makes carving fiddly bit harder.

[@TucanSam75]

Awesome video. For those trying this out, you can use a toothbrush and brush the cuddle bone once you made your impression for exaggerated texture.

Lovely work, and an interesting mould-making method. I've seen similar methods using sandstone (for broches, etc.) but never cuttlefish 'bones', at least not in real life. Educational, entertaining, and artful. Perfect! =)

[@BarbaraHSemchen]

Very very nice! The cuttle-cast turned out perfect. Your cuttle bone was dense and smooth. I've never seen any like that. But how about an alternative to using glue. Over here, jewelers avoid glue if possible. And never admit using it.

okay thank you

[@mineduck3050]

I understamd the practicality of wiring it up, but could you explain what you mean by doing so because they coincide? Not sure what that means.

[@scaffoal]

since there are no internal stops, the previously created lines allow the two parts to fit together quite precisely.

[@mineduck3050]

@@scaffoal thank you for replying. By the way, you especially have become an actual inspiration. I bought 50 hand tools, a vise, mandrel, kiln, dremel, little anvil, silver...all in the last two weeks. I want to craft such beauty as you, and maybe reach your skill.

That's a lot of work to make a ring and then use a stone which doesn't appear to be real turquoise. I could be wrong. If so, where is the turquoise from? It just doesn't look right to me.

Customers often have gems or stones to which they are romantically linked. My job is to reinforce their wishes. An object is precious based on the value we give it to us.
