Hi sir.Can I ask if you melting silver like 925 sir.Thank you.
With that jewelers torch, what do you use oxy and acetylene or propane and oxygen?
bloody brilliant and very helpfull
Sir how can fix belt in XL plz help
Thanks brother, I was going to buy one of these but I thought it was just for soldering.
Wow amazing
Thank you, I've definitely been throwing my silver in the quench at it's hottest for the cool sound. I have not started making jewelry for others yet, so I learned in time. Got my crock on the way but wish I knew about cold pickle because I was reluctant to order. I'm starting with peening long ingots to make simple pendants for family and friends to practice soldering bales and rings plus give them a memory of me and hopefully start them investing in silver. I love how the most beautiful things in the world almost always come from a smart guy willing to still get "dirty" in a corner or workshop hidden away from the beautiful lighting, cases, and presentations.
what would be the maximum pour you would do with this torch? Im pouring silver bars of about 65g
I recently went to a place to smelt some gold; 235 grams of it. I noticed after gold was melted, not all of it was poured out into the bar that was later given to me. I left the place thinking about why they held some back. Later I called to find out why some of the gold was held back. I was told that it was the borax part. Doesn't borax disepate during the smelting process? I somehow feel I got scammed. Please help.
Great video! Greetings from Rio de Janeiro
Where did you purchase it?
Make a wet borax solution and slowly cure glaze your melt dish so the metal will float on top.
Hi @nicholasmcmillan7536, thank you for sharing this tip! Glazing the melt dish with a wet borax solution is indeed a great technique to enhance the melting process. This method helps in creating a smoother surface within the dish, which can prevent the metal from sticking and ensure it floats cleanly on top. This can be particularly useful when working with metals like white gold, which require careful handling during the melting process. Your suggestion to cure the dish slowly will also help in building up a consistent and durable layer of borax, which can significantly improve the quality of the melts. We appreciate your expertise and are glad you're part of our community, sharing valuable insights that benefit all levels of goldsmiths. Thanks again for your comment, and we look forward to more of your suggestions in future streams!
I prefer cleaning my REAL silver but people are idiots and negative. When I see a "coated" or piece of jewelry that's covered with something that keeps it from needing cleaned, I avoid it. THAT looks fake to me, I'd rather clean it weekly because that TRUE shine and beauty is why I prefer silver over gold.
Hi @dustinpollard6237, thank you for sharing your perspective on caring for silver jewelry. It's clear you have a passion for the authenticity and natural beauty of real silver! Many enthusiasts agree that there's a certain charm and satisfaction in maintaining silver to keep its shine and luster through regular cleaning. This hands-on approach not only preserves the metal but also connects you more deeply with your jewelry. Your preference highlights an important aspect of jewelry ownership-the personal connection and pride in maintaining the material's natural beauty. It's great to hear different viewpoints on this, as it opens up a dialogue about what makes each type of jewelry special to individuals. Thanks for your input, and keep enjoying that brilliant shine of freshly polished silver!
Edit: I gave it some further research by watching more of your videos (besides a bunch of others) and I think I figured it out. It's the pickling solution, right? :D
Hi! We quench using water and use pickle for cleaning
@@roberts_and_co 😃 Just what I thought, thank you!
🤔 Amateur question for writing research - what is the blue liquid you quench the ingot in at the end? Thanks in advance! Viola

Do you know how to make a Franco Link Chain?
Hi @TimezUp23, thanks for reaching out with your question! A Franco link chain is a popular style known for its V-shaped links that create a sturdy yet flexible chain structure, often used for both necklaces and bracelets. Making a Franco link chain involves a detailed process of cutting metal into rods, then carefully forming each link, soldering them together, and finally polishing the finished chain. It requires precision and skill, as the links need to be uniform to ensure the chain's smooth movement and overall strength. If you're interested in learning more about the specific steps or perhaps watching a tutorial on how to make a Franco link chain, let me know! We could consider creating a detailed guide or video tutorial to show the process from start to finish. Your interest could be the perfect inspiration for our next content piece
@@roberts_and_co i think it would be awesome if you could demonstrate how to make a Franco chain

I used to coil the wire around a rod of a specific size and then cut them on the bias with the jewelers saw
Hi @ericarachel55, thanks for sharing your technique! Coiling the wire around a rod and then cutting the jump rings on the bias with a jeweler's saw is indeed a classic method, offering great control over the size and uniformity of the rings. It's always interesting to hear how different jewelers approach the same task, bringing their own preferences and expertise to the process. Your method also ensures a clean, angled cut, which can make soldering the rings closed easier. We appreciate you taking the time to contribute your experience to our community. If you have any more tips or questions, feel free to share!

Of all the saws you showed I STILL cannot find the one I'm looking for! Back in the 80's I worked with some friends in their jewelry business, and got to use one a lot, and I wish I could find another saw like I used then. The problem with all the jeweler saws I can find now, none of them have the capability of rotating the blade 90° so I can cut deeper than the throat depth. The saws we had had a removable clamp on the top that you could remove and turn 90°, re-insert it in the frame, the clamp on the bottom was a part of the handle, you would take the wing nut screw off, take the handle out and turn it, re-insert it, put the clamp back together. Now the frame was sideways and I could make long cuts. Do you know of one?
Hi @longbowshooter5291, it sounds like you're looking for a very specific type of jeweler's saw with a feature that allows for greater flexibility in cutting, particularly with the ability to rotate the blade 90°. This feature is indeed useful for bypassing the throat depth limitation of standard jeweler's saws, allowing for longer, uninterrupted cuts. The saw you described sounds like it had a very unique design, especially with the removable and rotatable clamp features. Today, some modern jeweler's saw frames offer similar functionality but might be marketed differently or have undergone design changes. One such saw that might meet your needs is the Knew Concepts saws, which are known for their innovative designs and high quality. They offer saws with tensioning systems and blade clamps that can be adjusted, potentially allowing for the kind of orientation change you're looking for. Another option could be to look for vintage tools from the '80s that match the description of what you used previously. Sometimes, specific models from past decades can still be found through online marketplaces like eBay, Etsy, or in specialized tool shops that deal with vintage jewelry making tools. If those options don’t seem to work, you might consider reaching out to custom tool makers who could potentially recreate the saw frame you're describing. Custom fabrications could be a bit more expensive but would ensure you get exactly what you need for your specific jewelry-making requirements. I hope this helps, and you find the perfect saw frame for your projects! If you need more specific recommendations or further assistance, feel free to ask.
@@roberts_and_co Thank you kindly for you response, it was very kind of you to take the time to do this. I checked the Knew Concept ones, and, yes, there IS a coping saw variety that allows for 360° rotation of the blade, and it is a 6.5" blade with the pins on the ends - not a "jewelers blade" per se, plus it's a fixed frame/non-adjustable frame. I'm surprised no one makes that style, it allowed you to saw long pieces (as long as it didn't exceed the throat depth) by easily turning the blade sideways. Can you picture this?: Picture the two parts of the frame minus the clamps and handle, at the ends of the frames where the clamps are picture a 3/8th' x 3/8th' square loop at the top clamp area and the handle area. The top clamp is two pieces, the main body and the clamping piece, with a winged screw to hold them together (like you'd clamp the blade in with), the main body is square with a cap (think a letter T) that slides into the square loop, and the clamping pice is screwed on to hold it in place. The handle has a metal square body section and it slides into the lower square loop, and the clamping piece is screwed in, holding the handle in place. Can you see how convenient that would be? Hey, if you decide to make your own and sell them and make a million, remember an old guy told ya about 'em! LOL
if i was drawing out an 9ct ingot into something, i would always let the metal cool down slowly to keep it soft. i wouldn't quench it at all until the final shape? but i could be wrong.
Hi @garethcarter1626, Thanks for sharing. Allowing the metal to cool down slowly is indeed a common practice to keep it soft and workable, as this gradual cooling can help to prevent the formation of internal stresses and brittleness. We have found your approach to avoid quenching until the final shape is achieved can be particularly beneficial in maintaining the metal's malleability throughout the forming process. Quenching does have its place, especially to lock in the work done and to harden the metal at the end of the shaping process, but as with many aspects of metalworking, much depends on the specific requirements of the project and the properties of the metal being used. Each type of metal responds differently to heat treatment, and 9ct gold, with its alloyed nature, might indeed benefit from slower cooling. It's great to hear your thoughts and techniques, as they contribute to a broader understanding of the craft. Online it seems as many jewellers advocate for quenching as air cooling. But in our experience quenching in liquids after annealing causes more issues with gold and silver alloys than it solves.
Some nice pieces there.

How can I find out if a signet ring belonged to a certain family? I have found one for sale that I'm interested in buying. There is no text engraved. Would it be ok to wear one that has been engraved for someone else?
Hi @harryukraine, that's a great question! Tracing the history of a signet ring to a specific family can be a fascinating endeavor, especially if the ring has no text or identifiable marks. If there's a crest or symbol, you might try researching it through heraldry databases or consulting with a historian who specializes in heraldic symbols. Antique dealers or experts in family crests could also provide insights based on the design and craftsmanship of the ring. As for wearing a signet ring that was originally engraved for someone else, it's generally acceptable, especially if it's an antique or vintage piece. Many people appreciate these rings for their historical value and craftsmanship. However, it’s good practice to respect the symbolism and origins of the ring, especially if it carries significant family heritage or crests. If you’re buying it as a piece of historical or artistic interest, it can be a wonderful and unique addition to your collection. Just make sure to do some due diligence to understand its background as much as possible. Enjoy your journey into the world of signet rings!
@@roberts_and_co thanks a lot for the reply. It was very helpful

who the fuck wears a signet ring since the Middle Ages?
Hi @jimmason8502, thanks for chiming in! You might be surprised to learn that signet rings are indeed quite popular and not just relics of the past. They're often seen as a mark of sophistication and have a strong presence in contemporary fashion. Traditionally, signet rings have been symbols of family heritage and social status, but today they're also embraced widely for their aesthetic appeal and as a statement of personal style. It's a common piece among those who have an appreciation for classic jewelry with a rich history. So, it’s definitely more than just a medieval accessory! If you’re curious to learn more about how signet rings are worn today or their significance, feel free to ask more questions!
I would like to do.
Me too
How long do you keep the flame on the 18kt before it becomes soft? I have tried several times, it just won't get soft. Or barely.
Hi @SoleilMagica, when it comes to annealing 18kt gold, the temperature is indeed more crucial than the time. You want to make sure you're heating the gold to the right annealing temperature, which is typically around 750°C (about 1382°F). Once it reaches this temperature, holding it there briefly to allow the heat to soak through the metal evenly is ideal. This helps ensure that the gold becomes uniformly soft and workable. Thanks for your question, and good luck with your annealing!

You mentioned something that you felt was important in the process of ingot making. I couldn’t catch the word but it sounded like “pinging”. Can you explain what that is? Thanks. Just found your videos on RUclips thanks for putting them out there for us
The term you heard was "peening,". Peening involves repeatedly hammering the surface of the metal with a hammer. This process can be particularly useful after making ingots to increase the density of the surface, or even to relieve surface stresses, making the metal more durable for the next jewelry-making processes of rolling and drawing.
Thank you
You would do this before putting it through the rolling mill?
Yo, would absolutely like a link to your torch setup. Great video
The torch we are using to melt gold and silver is a Smiths little torch with additional melting tip. Watch out if buying one, there are lots of cheap copies with incorrect gas fittings so you have to buy one from a reputable Smiths agent in your country. We use ours with bottled propane gas and an electric oxygen generator but you can use bottled oxygen.
Do the metals stick to the molds
While the metal may appear to 'stick' to the graphite molds when hot due to the surface tension of the molten metal, as the metal cools and contracts, it naturally releases from the mold without the need for any release agents. This characteristic of graphite molds simplifies the process, making them a preferred choice for many jewelers. The inherent properties of graphite, including its thermal conductivity and lubricity, indeed facilitate this natural release once cooling occurs.

Can you please advice me on half decent loupe for looking at carp fishing hooks once i have sharpend the point ..would 10 x be the most clarity ? Seems to be the genrel concensus when i have done a little research ,i ditn want to spend mega bucks but on same hand want something adequate Best regards T
Absolutely, @trigger4616! When considering a loupe for examining the sharpness of carp fishing hooks, it's essential to balance magnification with clarity and focal length. A 10x magnification is a great choice, as it provides a detailed view of fine details like the points of sharpened hooks, which aligns with the general consensus you've encountered in your research. However, it's important to note that with increased magnification comes greater clarity, but this also results in a shorter focal length. This means you'll have to hold the loupe closer to the object for a clear view. While this is perfect for intricate work, it's something to keep in mind depending on your specific needs and the convenience you're looking for. For a balance between cost and quality without spending a lot, there are several high-quality, reasonably priced loupes available from brands that cater to jewelers and watchmakers. These options often provide the clarity you need with a practical focal length. If you're working in varied lighting conditions, consider a model with a built-in LED light to illuminate the fine details of your hooks. Choosing the right loupe will enhance your precision and satisfaction with the work. Happy fishing, and may your hooks be perfectly sharp!

Your bench is sooooo low! I suppose that is how you learned but it is so bad for your posture and you can't possibly be comfortable. Your work should be at your eyes level, especially when sawing.
Thanks for your concern, @ivafrosh7675! Comfort and posture at the bench are indeed paramount for any craftsman. You see, I'm six foot one and I'm tons of fun, and I dress to a tee, which means I've tailored my bench height to fit me perfectly. It might look low in the video, but it's set up to ensure that my work is at or just below eye level when I'm seated, keeping my back straight and my posture in check. This setup helps me maintain precision in my sawing without compromising on comfort. It's all about finding that sweet spot that suits your body's needs, and I've spent quite some time adjusting my space to find mine. Appreciate your input, and I'm all for a discussion on ergonomics in the workshop!

The 1919 British Three Pence coin actually has a silver content of 92.5%, consistent with sterling silver standards of the time, not 50% as you mentioned. This detail is crucial for collectors and enthusiasts alike to understand the true value and composition of historical coins. We appreciate all contributions to the conversation, but we also emphasize the importance of sharing correct and verified information.
Pre 1919 is 92.5% anything after that is 50% until 1946 in 1947 they stopped using silver all together so whether its 50%or 92.5 % its not solid silver it contains base metal@@roberts_and_co
Thank you for your video. Regarding 24:57, the volume capacity of the ingot mold can be measured by filling its grooves with water. The volume is measured in cubic centimeters. Pure water has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter and pure gold has a density of 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter. Pure gold's volume calculation is 1,000 cubic centimeters ÷ 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter = 51.8 cubic centimeters which is the same as 51.8 milliliters. A water volume of 51.8 cubic centimeters of pure water will also weigh 51.8 grams on a gram scale. Therefore if 51.8 cubic centimeter is the volume capacity of the ingot mold, then it will hold one kilogram of pure gold. Similarly for the volume of pure silver, its density is 10.49 grams per cubic centimeter. Pure silver's volume calculation is 1,000 cubic centimeters ÷ 10.49 grams per cubic centimeter = 95.3 cubic centimeters which is the same as 95.3 milliliters. Therefore if 95.3 cubic centimeter is the volume capacity of the ingot mold, then it will hold one kilogram of pure silver.
