Silversmithing: Make A Spinner Ring (Type 1)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2022
- This video tutorial shows how to create one type of sterling silver ring that spins. This project is best for someone with a little bit of experience. People seem to love rings they can play with while they wear them, so these tend to be good sellers. This video is a bit longer, but is a complete tutorial, so I think it is worth the watch time. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others, as I've taught people for most of my life. This hobby turned into a fun side gig for me for years while I taught public school. I love suggestions and hearing about others' experiences. What is your favorite project? What kind of tutorials would you find useful?

“PICKLE TIME” 💃🏻
Best spinner ring tutorial I’ve seen. Thanks Chad
Thank you JC! I will try to have the second style of spinner ring tutorial up in a few weeks or so. Thanks for watching JC:)
Chad, your videos have become a real "jewel" among the teachers on RUclips. Really like that you are featuring items that are repeatable pieces for market. Would love to see some link bracelet ideas. (Ones using Jumpring links, a combination of tubing and jumprinigs, and any other neat connections for linking pieces together.
Thank you for your kind comments Kim! That really makes me feel good that people are finding these useful. I will try to do some link bracelets styles in the near future.
Thanks! Y our super creative I want to thank you. You have really helped me. I’ve been metalsmithing for about 6 yrs all learned from you tube and reading. I’ve been painting since I was a kid and have literally spent my life doing art along with my full time job. I mean like full time 2nd job. But when I got my first solder to stick I was hooked like no other. I do a lot of clay and I love to enamel but enamel is difficult and very time consuming. Metal smithing is so enjoyable and helps me stay happy. I really wanted to thank you sincerely you really are one of the best channels for this. I hope you make tons of money! No sir, you are the best. The rest are too fast or disorganized, etc. I guess your teaching background helps. Have a blessed day!
Thank you Shanda, not only for the donation, but for saying such nice things! I’ve never tried enameling, but have seen some really pretty examples of it. It does look time consuming. I’m really glad you are finding my channel helpful:). Thanks again!
@@chadssilversmithing I was so excited when I found out about enameling because I could incorporate my painting on silver. I wish I could have sent more money! But I spent all my money on silver! Lol. But really🙃😂
Nice patination on the flat section of the ring, where the heat brings the surface close to 999silver on the surface.
Thanks.
Yessss link bracelet. Love your videos very good to learn from
Thanks Dainty anns! I’ll be doing a link bracelet video soon:)
Really great technique, I don't have anyone around here to be a mentor but I'm pretty sure I just found him
Thanks Greg. I’m glad you liked it! Thanks for the really nice comment as well!
You mention that you have 350 subs at the start, you've come a longway since. Thanks for sharing Chad and take care.
Getting close to 6000 now:). Only 94,000 more until I get one of those RUclips plaques:)
@@chadssilversmithing I have no doubt that you'll reach that target oneday.
Thank you for sending this my way
My pleasure! Was that what you were thinking?
yes, thank you@@chadssilversmithing
This is almost identical to the ring I made in class and that I wear every day. We used square wire on the edges though. I have ADHD so I need something to fidget with sometimes. Funny story about my ring: I used to wear it on a smaller finger and one day it came off when I was washing my hands and went down the drain AT A GAS STATION! I was mortified to ask for help, but wasn't about to leave that gas station without my ring. I pleaded with the manager to help me. We tried several things to try to fish it out, with no luck. Finally, another guy came and opened up the drain for me (in the ladies' room). There it was in the trap. They probably thought, "All this trouble for that!" when they saw it. 🤣 I didn't care. I gave them each a twenty and left happy.
That’s a great story Kathy! I’m glad you got your ring back:)
LOVE THIS!!
I’m really glad! Thanks for the comment:)
Very nicely done
Thanks Sabreking!
What would you do if the spinner wasn't spinning? Great video thanks Chad!
Generally you have to start over. If you heat to the soldering point, you may be able to separate them, clean them up, and try again. Some people apply substances like yellow ochre or white-out to prevent solder flowing to certain areas. Read up about these before you try them. They can contaminate your pickle and may produce some fumes depending on what you are using.
Oh cool! Thanks so much Chad! You’re truly awesome 💕🥰 will try this out for sure!
Thanks!
Very nice ring, thanks for sharing. I always learn something new from your videos.
I’m glad it was useful! Thanks for watching.
Always a delight to watch your work, thank you Chad. You seem to be using the same file for most of your projects… is that right? From Australia 😃
Thanks Judy. I mostly use a single cut mill or bastard file. I also use a small half round jeweler’s file for little nooks and crannies. Hello from Colorado:)
Btw, you said my name right - Mai as in Maitai and me as it is said. 👍🏼👍🏼😊
Oh good. I gave myself about a 50% chance of getting it right:)
What do you think about using the inner ring to “wrap” the patterned wire, similar to creating a bezel for a cab. You’d be more likely to get closer in size, and less work cutting and resoldering.
If I'm visualizing what you are saying Sheran, I think that might be more difficult to do. There is a simpler type where you flare the inner ring on either side to contain the spinner parts:)
Hello Chad! This is my first time watching one of your videos. I have been watching lots and lots of jewelry vidios. I really like that you show how to do things without lots of expensive equipment. This is the way I need to start so I don't have to buy a lot. The ring is really pretty. Can you tell me how this ring has to be cared for? Will this silver tarnish? Is this a soft ring that I would have to be careful with while wearing it?
I will definitely be watching more of your videos.
Hello Niobe Mom! Thank you for the nice compliment! This is Sterling silver, so it will tarnish over time. I use what are called “sunshine polishing cloths”. They work great for removing tarnish. As far as durability, if it gets bent, it will no longer spin, but should hold up great unless that happens. Thanks for watching!
Hi Chad, thanks for the information. I love the jewelry you make, it really inspires me to give it a try. I am slowly getting the supplies to start. Have you ever made a video for beginners and what you really need to get started?
@@azizcrew Thanks Niobes Mom! It’s on my list of videos to do soonish. Just haven’t gotten around to that one yet. Sorry about that. Keep a look out and I’ll have one here not too far in the future.
Great! I'll be watching@@chadssilversmithing
Thanks for sharing this can I ask what the cutters re called please as I don't like sawing much
Those are just Fiskar's Craft Shears.
Just a random comment, but do you notice the people’s profiles on your 3 soldering boards?
Occasionally I have a pareidolia moment:). Crusted flux can make interesting patterns.
Hi Chad, I would like to send you a photo but do not know where?
My Instagram is probably best. instagram.com/silverworker1?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
