  • @keschomp
    @keschomp Год назад

    Thank you- that was the most specific and straight forward - easy to understand video on polishing! One question tho- since you do the tumbling before the bezeling, doesn’t that process make the bezel much harder to burnish over the stone?

    @Bredon's Crystals, Cheapest flux- Borax cone...just add water and make thick or thin. Bench vice with a ring clamp to hold ring while your pushing the bezel. 12 o'clock/ then 6 o'clock / then 9 o'clock/ then 3 o'clock. Pushing the in between parts.

    Wow that seems like a lot of work! Lol I really admire the work that people do just to make a piece of jewelry! I wanted to find out how to make bezel pendants for some stones I bought, but it looks like alot of work lol for me anyway ☹️..lol..u have to have lots of patience it's truly art work, I do resin art, but I can't do what you do, you are awesome! ❤ Thanks for making this video now I know how it's done! 🙂👍

  • @JonahVex

    To stop the solder from jumping dry your flux with your torch first.. the water evaporating is what tends to cause the jumping.

    Obviously I’m a bit late ⏰ to your channel . However I absolutely LOVE it !! You are Amazing!! A few questions how did you get started? Who taught you ( for the most part ) do you do it because you live it or as you source of income? I am a older person. I have always loved Jewelry. It’s my passion . I’m not sure if it would be a good at this stage in my life though …. Investing the amount of money for all the tools and equipment ? Any advice ? Thank you in advance . Also I truly love your videos . I’m currently binge watching all of them 💜

  • @Bloodpig
    @Bloodpig 2 года назад

    This was a cool video RUclips recommended and changed my mind about only ordering wire. Using sheets can be a big time saver and help create even bezels and all instead of so many telling me to just flatten my wire that thin like that would be easy to do. So thank you for sharing this design, the snake is awesome and I see it was uploaded a year ago. When I make something different, I like to keep track and each year make the piece again and compare each year to track how far my techniques and all have evolved until I can hopefully see my own pattern across the different styles of jewelry I make so maybe one day my work can be noticeable by just looking and seeing whatever my most common pattern or mark seems to show and stand out the most. I’m still such a newbie though and I am just slowly holding myself back and making sure I take time to learn each technique well enough to be able to complete at least 5 pieces confidently if needed at short notice without feeling rushed. I’ve subscribed to your channel and will watch more vids, but I’d love to see this years snake and enter its giveaway if you plan it. Thanks again for the ideas and tutorial.
