      Silly question...why not use half hard wire to make the rings, especially if your motor control isnt the best? Dead soft and I have a real grudge match going.....help!

      @@RICDirector you can absolutely use half hard wire. I tend to use dead soft for pretty much everything because it minimizes the volumes of wire that I need to keep in stock. But you should always use the hardness that works best for your personal needs and preferences. You do you! I'm not the wire police. I'm just here to make suggestions and my suggestions are admittedly biased sometimes, depending on my own personal preferences. 🤷

    Thank you! Made some with 14 g and 18g. Gout out my jewelers saw for the first time. Broke the first blade trying to pull it out from the middle of coil. And I forgot to lubricate. Used a 1/0 blade. Second time used 2/0 blade, lubricated and made 8 nice ones!! Would love a video on soldering jump rings. Thank you, Wendy!

      That's great! Using a saw does take some practice, but the results are so worth the effort. I'll see about that soldering video. Thanks for the request!

    Terrific tut, as always. Very informative and detailed. Actually got me a bit excited, knowing the trick about how to make jump rings much more "cohesive" and trimmed cleanly...great tips!

    What is your best source for machine cut jump rings?

    • @Door44Studios
      @Door44Studios  3 года назад +2

      My favorite source stopped carrying copper rings years ago. They only sell precious metal rings now, and I'm not sure if they're even selling to the public these days. They may only be doing wholesale. But you can try them if you're looking for silver or gold rings: Urban Maille. I also linked to some other reliable sources for copper rings in the description of this video. So be sure to check those out as well. I haven't bought any jump rings in years, though. I have some left over from my chain weaving days. And, on the rare occasion when I don't have the size I need on hand, I'll either make my own rings or I'll come up with an alternate solution, like wrapped loop connectors.

    What is the brand of Super flush Cutter please?

    • @Door44Studios

      They're Swanstrom super flush cutters. They're available at riogrande.com.

    Super flush cutters? What brand and where would you recommend purchasing?

    • @Door44Studios
      @Door44Studios  3 года назад +1

      My super flush cutters are Swanstrom tools. I bought my 4-piece set of Swanstrom pliers from Rio Grande, which is one of the only places that I know of that carries that brand. I like mine a lot, but I often wish they had narrower jaws that could get into tighter spaces. That's the only thing I'd change about my super flush cutters. Ironically, I feel like my chain nose and round nose pliers are too narrow. They have needle sharp tips! The three top brands for pro-grade pliers that I know of are Tronex, Lindstrom, and Swanstrom. And those are probably listed in order of current popularity. Rio Grande carries both Swanstrom and Lindstrom tools. Tronex tools are readily available on Amazon, and you can often find Lindstrom tools there as well. I can't vouch for either of those brands because I've never owned them. But both brands have great reviews. Wherever you buy them, do shop around because the prices can vary quite a bit!
