Forging Two Full Ounces of Pure Silver, Handmade 2 Troy Ounce Bracelet
I forged a pure 999 silver bracelet from a two ounce ingot. I poured the silver bar in a previous video. This prototype went to a lucky customer on etsy. Working this much fine silver was a learning experience.

Melting 5 Ounces of Pure Silver in a Furnace for a Handmade Bracelet
Просмотров 1177 месяцев назад
I needed to make a pure silver ingot big enough to make a 2 troy ounce bracelet for a client, so I had to build the "big" furnace. I was very scared, but everything went well. Now I am the proud owner of a huge bar of 999 silver and I can start my new project. I forged this bar into a big bracelet in a following video.
Fixing Bent Sterling Silver Rings: my thoughts on work hardening sterling silver

Join me as I rescue several rings from oblong warbles and attempt to string together several coherent thoughts regarding mass produced silver products. Properly work hardening these rings should have happened before being sized, so that ship has sailed. All I can do now is make them circle again...

    Hey, thanks for the video! I would like to make something like this. What gauge square wire would you recommend if I want a final width of about 6 mm ?

    • @mustachemetalworks
      @mustachemetalworks 3 дня назад

      If you're asking what ingot dimensions to get to before hammering out, I would go to around a 4mmx4mm square ingot before drawing out flat. It's very easy to blow 4mm way past 6mm width if you're not primarily drawing it length wise. It would be great if we could just buy 2 gauge round wire... That would reduce some steps.

    I enjoyed your video a lot! You are a funny guy with a good attitude. I am attempting something similar with fine silver (more organic design but more balls!) and also wish to just fuse. May be beyond my still limited soldering skills but you've given me some courage to just get in there and try. Molten metal is so much fun...

    I strongly recommend if your going to try to jump in and start making jewelry get you a small section of silver wire and practice soldering don't start out using copper to practice it will get you discouraged and you will quit.

    • @dksmith605
      @dksmith605 Месяц назад

      Why would you advise against copper to start with? Would you consider copper to be more difficult than silver? I only ask because I've just started playing with making copper chain and the results of my first 'quick and dirty' attempt are pretty encouraging really.

    I also found that fusing is a butt-clencher for sure 😆, though far preferable than using solder and 'contaminating' a pure piece imo!! EDIT: BTW I found that sticking a wad of ceramic-wool through the middle of the ring makes it 'safer' to heat from the outside, gives it support so it doesn't collapse

    • @mustachemetalworks
      @mustachemetalworks 3 месяца назад

      I'm happy to hear that fusing is universally terrifying. Good trick with the ceramic; do you find that it clings to the metal after melting? I would hate to foul gold for the sake of easy fusing. I would prefer some carbon based material, like a piece of jewlers charcoal cut-to-fit, but thats a pain in the rear-end to manufacture.

    • @EroticOnion23
      @EroticOnion23 3 месяца назад

      @@mustachemetalworks only time it clings slightly (like literal tiny fibers on the surface) to the gold/silver is when it’s completely melted (or if borax is used, naturally), and is very easily removed as simple as being able to be rubbed off by hand once it cools, or pickling for ~15sec (even including borax). No problem at all if annealing or fusing 👍

      butane isnt hot enough for gold. you're not going to have any luck no matter how long you try to hold the flame. use a bigger propane torch. Highly recommend the standard $20 plumbing torch. a map gas torch will be too much heat for links.

    That is frigging awesome I absolutely love it. I had no way you could melt down those single ingots. I have a powerful butane torch wirh small flame outlet. I have seen other jewellers use it. Do you think it would work? 24k is soft as can be. I can't get over how you made that. It is so impressive. From a local jewellers here £900 easy for a single 5gram 24kbgold ingot £300 what a saving

  • @dustinpollard6237
    @dustinpollard6237 3 месяца назад

    I know it's been 3 years but i hope you're pouring ingots by now. My dad was a jeweler and i found his scrap tin after he passed. I bought the tools on Amazon and ebay and practiced on scrap jewelry and now I'm pouring great. I was gonna surprise my sister with a pendant like you said at the beginning, but the scrap ended up being more than expected so i 2 sided taped the bars and buttons inside the Altoids tin and taped it to a picture frame filled with pics of me and our father. You're definitely intelligent, attentive, and patient enough to make good pours. Thanks for the info.

    • @mustachemetalworks
      @mustachemetalworks 3 месяца назад
