Hi Vanessa! Just found your videos! I enjoy them very much. I’m an crafter that has been wanting to do metalsmithing for a while now but haven’t been able to find material to teach me! I really love your work! Although I haven’t worked with precious gems I have worked with really small beads and stone so I feel your pain with trying to manipulate or collect them! U probably already know this but at any craft store u can get these pen like tools for really cheap (like $5) that have adhesive like points to them to help pick up stones that r super tiny((2mm or less) without harming the stone! Their called jewel picker tools! That might help u get the gems out of the bags and place them easier?! Hope this helps! Can’t wait for more videos!
That’s super cool! I didn’t know that! Thank you for sharing!! And, I’m so glad you’re enjoying my channel 🥹🥹If you are looking for a more personal process, my instagram subscription might be helpful for you! I have started a series where I go through every step of basic processes and will elaborate on more complex ones!
OMG I ran out of oxygen when I had to cast a few days ago 🥴! I got back and went to cast again and realized I forgot I also needed propane 😤. It all worked out! Where did you order your caddy from for your Oxygen? I need one so bad!
It came with the torch! I bought my torch setup from Seattle Findings. This caddy only fits the small propane tanks but they last me months before I need to swap them out!
@@_withlove_jewelry Ahh ok. I'm currently using a very small propane tank with a Smith Torch, but it's the one that came with my school kit, so it didn't come with a caddy.
@@_withlove_jewelry And I forgot to mention, the ring looks beautiful! I love working with that beaded wire! I bet that beaded ring with rainbow sapphires would be so beautiful!
