- So in my previous video i melted down some gold scrap and made a gold ingot, well now I'm turning that into a ring without the use of a template, mill or draw plate.

I love how it's not perfect in geometry. It has that wonderful handmade look that says unique.
I've never made a piece of jewelery from scratch or using a template but I do hope to make a victorian style engagement ring, with wooden inlay, for my girlfriend in the near future. Your videos are gonna help me do it. Thanks!
you prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Darren Idris Instablaster :)
@Evan Stephen thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Evan Stephen it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my account :D
@Darren Idris Glad I could help =)
I enjoyed this. It is good to see many different techniques and then put all the info together.
I learned with coin ring process, then eventually made my own bullions and hammered into a coin-shape, then used coin process, followed by turning on a drill to shape. Started with 6 or 7 silvers, then finally did one beautiful 14k.
Lots of time and work, but no solder joint. I plan to try again soon with casting. ;)
Very inspiring. What type of torch are you using for soldering and annealing in the video?
I’m loving the videos, keep doing what you’re doing!
Thanks man I appreciate it, and I certainly will :)
Do you need solder.. or did you just use tiny 10k gold pieces and melt them together with some flux.?
Lovely. I like the sand casting. Very beautiful 😍
I love how no one went into Sonic crisis by saying "SONIC RING" also that's really impressive
Eww sonic
Awesome! You inspired me to try it!
What kind of sand do you have to use and where can I get it? Also could you tell me please what's the white powder you added to the good before melting it and if I can follow the same steps to cast a silver ring
So the sand is known as delft clay or green sand and you can get it online or make your own. the white powder is borax
@@natecharleswatches thank you so much!
@@natecharleswatches I heard beach sand and powdered kitty litter can be used?
Really great job, mate! Keep up the good work!
Many thanks man, and i will :)
Do you use a Flux for the soldering? Were the little solder pieces some fragments you created from the bar or can they be bought in that form? Like the method I want to make my missus a ring for her birthday next year I reckon I might give it a go!
You can cast an ingot by melting it in a groove cut into a charcoal block, then hammer it into a strip. Flux is not essential, but recommended.
I want to do this process for melting some gold into a nose ring about as thick as that ring but all I have for gold is a collectible gold eagle, what would be the best method of getting good melt grade gold (999) instead of melting this coin?
What a ridiculously inefficient and time consuming way to make it happen. But I guess thats the beauty of jewelry making. Everyone finds his way.
I don't usually make rings this way. take it more as a demo...and a little bit of fun for me XD
Nice 👍 what are the bits used to file and polish ring please ? I only have a drill tho but could I buy those still
Thanks
Good job done without the template
Thanks man
for sandcasting with a mold, how do you determine how much metal to use, and say I wanted to make a silver-gold ring, what proportions would I use?
I guesstimate all the time tbh. Does it look like enough? Yes? add a little more just to be safe
@@natecharleswatches LOL cool. Thank you!
seems this is not just sand but a special that can be compressed?
If doing a full ring casting (without the use of solders) you would need about 60-80% more metal to be able to pour into the mold. Creating the ring itself. Say if the ring you make is 5g worth of gold you'll need atleast 8-10g minimum, as you can see in this video the "sprue" on the top of the mold(button) cools of quicker than the metal going into the mold. If you only used 5g in a 5g ring it will never form totally.
Are those little slivers of metal that you add to the gaps just pure gold? What is the purity of the gold?
Its gold solder, so a mixture of gold and other materials, not sure what and what percentages
20181206: I was expecting something simpler. So why connect the casting frame together? Why not use a left over toilet paper roll?....I'm thinking of making a mould made of ceramic to use over and over to the exact shape.
Super I'm a goldsmith in India from tamilnadu
Sir m also n goldsmith from Agra The city of Taj and I m also posted jewellery Design and jewellery making Video on my channel if u are interested then plz watch n Subscribe my channel..it's my humble request to you🙏🙏
Great video. Are they just butane torches you’re using there?
probably map gas its very hot
What kind of torch do you use?
Excelente.
would this be possible with placer gold? or is it not pure enough
It would actually likely be more pure than his. His is made from 9ct it 37.5% gold. More gold nuggets are around 58% to 90% gold. The problem is they would be brittle from other contaminants such as lead. The alloys used in jewellery are copper silver and zinc.
Some placer gold would work, but most would not be malleable because of impurities. I have bought some Alaskan placer gold in the
of high purity that I could do anything with.
👍
Ooooh rings
Shinny rings
Its funny cuz im sonic and i collect rings
Nice work. And very informative
Not sure how you were able to get gold to melt with a single MAP gas torch. I tried two torches and could not get half that amount of gold flakes to melt in a similar sized crucible.
👍👌
You did a great job you could have forgone the solder and attempted to fuse it
Amazing
Thank you :)
Loved it 💙
Great video! 😊
Thank you friend :)
So would that be considered 24k?
No this would be 9ct gold
Good job
Nice job.pozz Croatia
Any reason it's made from 3 parts? Why not just cast the ring-shape in the mould or peen out the bullion to a bar?
I was just trying something different. Usually I cast a ring shape from the start
I imagine its possible, tho the edges won't be crisp after the cooling and shrinking
9 carot gold ?
You should do a give away
funnily enough i have though of doing one, but will probably do it at like 10 or 20k
Ring may not be having good weight because of casting.gold must be forged or drawn
Couldn't you just roll it into a long piece and then form it?
That would have been much better but I suppose he doesn't have a rolling mill. he could have done it with a hammer though. That would have made it much easier to bend into the ring shape. Also I would have repoured the ingot rather that have that many solder joints.
why don't you just cast the entire ring in one go? That's what the cast is for.
Its a video showing how he makes it, so he wants to make it seem like it takes much more work then in really does.
Cast as one piece beats multiple soldered joints, every time, for my taste.
no nice 😭
kind of a odd video. I see you have some proper equipment and yet you did things like someone with crude tools. it like you just bought what you thoug you needed to make jewelry but yet did not buy the basic tools most jewelry will start off with. I mean I can somewhat understand but. the thing you should have just to start with is a decent torch ring plyers and a wire mold and possible a wire sizer. I would say get a rooler but I know they are expensive.
Is this send
Its delft clay
Ma cosa é?....non si capisce!
what was the point of that useless thing it will be as weak as a drink of water more solder than gold three joints asking for trouble i wont be trying it would have been better to use a hammer to draw the gold out than all that lark
Mal muy mal. Cómo vas a soldar el ríel. Entonces tú argolla es de dos piezas 😢nooo corrijo en tres piezas q porquería!!!
give me some ilove gold
Lots of efforts, less result. Unsatisfied with finishing.
Our indian workers' do less and u will get a better finished product.
