I am so glad I ran across your channel. You are a true artist Jesse. This brings back such great memories for an old man that was fortunate enough to grow up in Shiprock during the 1950's. Hearing your hammer against your anvil was music to me. Thank you for giving me so much pleasure
Hey bro I'm a blacksmith if that ringing bothers u try sticking a whole tube of silicone caulk under anvil and it will greatly disipate the noise awesome tutorial man keep up the Great work.....
I had some old mud flaps that was 1/4 inch thick rubber that I found laying around at work incut them up to fit under my anvil and ringing went away and no caulking mess in the future but great idea with the caulking I hate the ringing especially in RUclips videos
Great.... Beautiful to see skilled craftsmen using traditional tools and techniques. Could you please show me how you form the cuff? I would appreciate it! Thank you so much for sharing your craft!
I guess im randomly asking but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
You make your bars same way I do man. Hey guys if y'all wanna find free silver i go to goodwill and search through the silverware bins and even those metal silver looking serving platters are also sometimes 93 percent silver and perfect for making pieces or practicing with out waisting money but I have only found 15 pieces of silverware and 9 serving platters that was silver in the 6 years I been doing that but I saved a lot of money in buying junk silver in the long run. Paid pennies to 2 dollars max for the bigger items. Also if you have a local jeweler not a chain one but a small local one they will sometimes give you some of the shavings and flakes of scrap silver from items they made cuse the one I get them from he doesn't remelt the shavings or chips off of the items he makes cuse the owner wants every custom piece made out of a solid piece of silver so there is no chance of any garbage in thier high end custom pieces. And also it's cheaper to get a huge block of tool making steel that is already hard as a rock and just make your own punches and chisels and what ever else you want I have made punches and chisels that are custom that you can't buy to make it easier for me. And I'll tell y'all what that ring roller from harbor freight for 80 bucks works perfectly and amazing and huge time saver for making rings and even bracelets or any round piece for that matter I have used it to make custom hoop earrings for this lady out of pure 14k gold and out of silver for ppl, rings and bands, bracelets, and other custom pendants for necklaces. I use it for getting it close then undo the rest by hand for the perfection. That piece you made is beautiful reminds me of the hair piece I made for my girlfriend now fiancee two years ago to goneithbher Mardis gras gown cuse she wanted something to match the design of the dress and if you ever been to a Mardis gras ball you know what dresses I'm talking about and she couldn't find a hair piece anywhere she liked so she showed me pictures of like 6 different hair pieces that each had one element of what she wanted in her hair piece and I spent a good 3 weeks and 87 hours making her this beautiful silver with 14k gold accent hair piece that had real diamonds in it thanks to my jewler friend I put all the diamond dust and shards on it and it literally looked like it had hundreds of diamonds inbeded into it along with 2;sapphires and 1 emerald to match her dress it cost me 700 dollars to make and it's worth 4-8k dollars my jewler friend said if they sold it in his shop, my current project is making a replica of the queens crown and I won't be able to use real giant diamonds and all the other gems on it but it's still going to look beautiful
Thanks for the tips ya been experimenting making my own stamps with old 1/2 inch and 1/4 drill bits lol just wrap em and use the other end is the 80 $ machine black and has a handle I was wondeting if that was useful now if only I vould find a rolling mill cheap I'd be in business literally haha building the inventory. When I don't have funds for silver I melt down junk silver or work on my lapidary craftsmanship as to not outsource the gemstone besides here in oregon we have so many gorgeous rocks nice to put some of the years I spend hounding those to rocks too some good use take care
I'm confused, the Morgan silver dollars were worth more than the scrap weight of silver. In other words this guy could have made some money plus get his silver stock if he sold the coins.

Enjoyed this video and the bracelet is fabulous! You have such skill! Please consider wearing ear protection when you are hammering on that anvil :)
nice awesome idea
Hello. Long shot...but is one of your relatives "B. Robbins? I have a ring of this said artist...it was a gift from my mother long ago.
I sure like your work you put a lot of time into it that you don't really have to do but it sure looks good when you're finished
You have some good punchs, take care of them and keep them safe.
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing
Beautiful work
What machine is he using in the beginning when he’s cleaning off his silver?
Do you stamp .900 or just let it go?
That raised center is best part. Cool.
He stamped it “coin silver.”
Como recupera la limalla?
Where can I purchase online?
I had a opportunity to buy one a year ago and kick myself every day for not getting it. Beautiful work.
Please put a magnet and chain around that anvil.
....it rings much and is sharp

Nice work. Did you know the English monarchy have at least three crowns they use.
Great to see skilled craftsmen. Please protect your ears tho!
What is this wheel he takes it to after he gets it out of the mold ?
Sand paper wheel.. trims the ruff edges off
Cool work,would like to know material used for mold.Kiln brick?
Tufa.
エンボスの方法がほんと原始的で好き。星マークもこれで出きるのかな。
Sterling silver is 92.5% silver.. Coin silver is usually 80-90 silver and the remainder copper. That bracelet will last forever.
I'm confused, the Morgan silver dollars were worth more than the scrap weight of silver. In other words this guy could have made some money plus get his silver stock if he sold the coins.
Wow no respirator?
I don’t think silver is harmful bc it don’t have any chrome in it.. like some other alloy metals
i'm just hoping that you usually wear ear protection. just saying. That loud banging on a regular basis, will cause hearing loss. be safe.
Why would you melt Morgan Dollars
👍😎🇦🇺🐈⬛😩
wear ear protection!
those silver dollar are irreplaceable even if they where commonly coins
Why did you melt coins that are worth more than their silver content instead of buying silver shot or even old sterling silverware
Lol melting morgan dollars !
stop pounding on grandpas blacksmith anvil and buy yourself a silversmith mill. geeze all that unnecessary noise will scare the cows.
