This video walks you through Project 9 - The Box Ring from the book "Professional Jewelry Making" by Alan Revere, (with his permission and encouragement).

The best teacher I've seen so far. Great stuff!
Thank you. ❤️
Hello Melissa Namaskar 🙏 I m a new subscriber and also a goldsmith in India you are a very good teacher of jewellery i like your skills and art of making jewellery Thank you 🙏
I watched your whole video. You are a really good silversmith/gold.
You’re a good teacher, you said some things it took me a long time to find anyone to teach me. I really like your work.
Thank you. I really appreciate your feedback. ❤️
I learned to use hard solder for all ! Depends where you place the flame ,even if their is 4-5 solders joints and settings too ! All got to do with how well you can solder . I try to use hard for all ! I'm old school ! 3rd generation 38yrs hand made . I use medium ,soft for repair or features ! I try to stick to hard ,medium for most !
Fantastic detailed complete tutorial Malissa! I’ll say it again...”You just keep getting better and better” !!!!!! Thank you so much for giving us your time out of your busy day. Love you lots!
Thank you.
Excellent teacher, thank you
Thank you 😊
It's very generous of you to share your knowledge on RUclips. Thank you.
One of the best tutorials I've ever watched. Thank you very much!
Best method i've seen to do this kind of ring
Thanks. It is great method. Makes it pretty simple to do.
Very nice.
Мелисса, добрый день, очень красивый перстень, вы мастер своего дела! Настоящее творчество! Ручная работа, не машинное литьё, спасибо вам, ждём продолжения!!!
Thank you so much.
I actually just bought Alan's book so I can have both your videos and his text as a reference. Thank you melissa ^_^
Samantha Larson that is great. Yeah these videos are in no way a replacement for the book, so I am glad you have it. But the videos do compliment it very well.
Nice! looks similar to the ring Im wearing.
You many not be an “expert” but you’re a very very thorough teacher. I wish I saw a second video with what ever top you decided to put on, so we could see a finished ring..
I actually didn’t finish this ring. I left it as a sample. But if you are on Facebook, in our group “Let’s Make Professional Jewelry “ there are a lot of examples where people have finished them.
What an amazing tutorial! You are such a good instructor; so clear and thorough.
Susan Geist thank you so much. ❤️
Omg your videos are a huge help and wonderful as well thanks for sharing and taking the time to do this 😊
I’m a huge fan of yours...I’m a self-taught metalsmith but I’m learning a lot from you!!!
I like your explanation.. Mellissa..! Clear it is..!
Thank you. I am glad it was good.
Thank you once again Mellisa for a great video!

Thanks for the video Melissa fantastic job I really enjoyed your jewellery making video god bless you.
You're doing a great job and I've learned a lot from that video,I'm also a goldsmith.beautiful job
Thanks so much for the video of box ring. How do you determine the size of the patterns of the ring?. Any guidance or parameters to follow?
Thanks so much Melissa for sharing this tutorial, I loved and I learn news things about how make a ring.
Thank you. I am so glad it was helpful.
As always, an excellent video! You’re a great teacher. 😍
Melissa I have watched all of the projects so far and made some of them so far. Alongside the book they are absolutely brilliant. Are you going to do any more of the projects in the advanced section of Alan Revere's book. This team was an inspired combination, well done to both of you. I would love to know about more work with this partnership please.
Patsy
Thanks Melissa. Super helpful video!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise fantastic video.
Thanks Melissa, outstanding work fore sure!
Great video tutorial, Melissa! Thanks so much!
You rock! Thank you!
Another great video did not see any mistakes, maybe different technique but not mistakes you should explore the option of a smiths little torch or similar once you have used one
you will put all your refillable propane torches in the bin.
pijnto the main soldering was done with my acetylene torch. I just used the little butane torch to light the piece to burn off the alcohol. I also have a little torch with propane/oxy. I think I have 7 or 8 different torches in my studio. 😊
@@MelissaMuir Yes I know you used the acetylene air torch I got the impression that was the only one you had except the refillable ones. pretty much use my smiths for every thing and just change the tips, in saying that I have just made a belt buckle (Kilt) I used my oxy acetylene welding set out in the shed for that
Hi Melissa! Loved your video! I was wondering if you could provide a link for the cone with the sand paper for removing excess solder from the seam inside the ring. Thank you
I am unable to find that accessory now. But this is what I am using these days, they are mini mounted abrasives and are amazing on the inside of a ring: www.gesswein.com/search/?search_query=mounted+abrasive
Use MM20 at checkout and it will give you a discount on them.
I'm a new subscriber and love going through these videos along with the book, just want to say you are fantastic!
Thank you and welcome to my channel.
hi malissa your ring making very nice mathord. but in india making ring very tufh ..
Yes, you are right, even here it can be tough. But it certainly helps to have the right tools.
Wow! nice to watch jewelry tutorial, like it.
Thank you.
Excellent tutorial, pls can you tell us what alcohol you use for the boricacid mixture thx
Thank you. It was denatured alcohol.
Awesome. Helpful.
I like this very nice
This was a brilliant lesson. I'm very new to ring making, would love to try this soon thank you.. Iam Goin to have to go on and see how would u set a stone or inlay in there, would it be burnished in, or pressure fitted or Maybe glued in typically? 🤔 awesome tips Melissa ✌
very good video!! congratulations!!
Heidi Zimmermann thank you
Melissa, I was recently laid up with a bad back and watched all your videos in bed. They were wonderful and very informative. Especially loved the box ring. Can you tell me which book of Alan Revere’s you were following? He has so many. I’ve subscribed to your youtube channel and look forward to more great instructional videos. Liz
Sorry to hear about your back. That is no fun. I hope you are well on your way to recovery now. We are using "Professional jewelry making" amzn.to/2CnfJnC It is a great book. You can get the kindle version for only $10. But I do love my hardbound book.
did you make or buy that sandpaper cone? Where?
I made the mistake of buying 22 gauge, will that work as well? Also, I need to make a size 9 ring, and was wondering what measurements I would need to cut for the band? This will be a birthday gift for a friend, who has a birthday on the 23rd, so hoping to have this done before then. Thank you for your time, and have a wonderful day.
You should be fine with 22 gauge. I am not sure as to the measurements. You will Have to play around with it a little bit.
Thanky ur great
Thank you too
Just curious on the moment if you solder and seal the top..is there a need for a hole anywhere due to trapped air inside?
Yes. Absolutely there must be a hole somewhere for the gas to escape.
Do you have a video where you show the bench system where you put your mandrel in? It looks very handy to have two hands free when working on the mandrel :D
I do not have a specific video. Mine is an antique tool that was given to me by the daughter of an old jeweler. This one is similar. I just use a different bench pin. www.micro-tools.com/products/jt879ba3?aff=8
@@MelissaMuir Thanks for the info!
like the vedio very much thankyou
D Mathivanan thank you.
@angelaksams Thank you Melissa! Because of your tutorial I know fully understand the tutorial from the book! You are making a fantastic addition to the book! xo
Can you please lmk exactly which solder chips you used throughout and also which torch tips you used. Thank you
marianne jennings I used only hard solder in this project. My torch tip is a #4
Wow ! 😗😗
So good....I like you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😘
thank you for the video! could you be so kind and tell me what kind of alchool are you using in the mixture with the acid boric? Which is the proportion between the two? thank you
It is denatured alcohol. I poured in a bunch of boric acid, and then poured in the alcohol so it was almost a 50/50 mix when looking at it after the boric acid had settled. :)
Hi Melissa, where can I find the patterns for the box ring? (like the ones you glued to the silver)various sizes. Thanks in advance.
Hey Steve, I responded to your email. Thanks.
where did you get the sawblade?
I really like the super puke blades. www.micro-tools.com/pages/search-results-page?q=Super+pike?aff=8
Where can I get the patterns for the box ring
They are in the book “Professional Jewelry Making” by Alan Revere. But they are also in the “Files” section in our Facebook group “Let’s make ProfessionalJewelry”.
I presume it's possible to draw up the pattern to fit different finger sizes?
Yes, there are people in the group on Facebook that are working through that now as well. Do you have the book?
No, ma'am, I don't.
Muy didáctico, una pena que sea en inglés.
Will you please tell me if you use first hard medium and for the last easy solder?
Ana Millan no. It is all done with hard solder. I explain why in the video. But we use all hard so that you can use a lower melting solder later for the top part.
@@MelissaMuir Thank you very much for answering. I love your videos, my first language is not English, so I have to review more than twice your videos but you explain very well every step!
Ana Millan thank you. I am glad you find them helpful.
@@MelissaMuir Always! Thank you very much!!
Melissa Muir I thought you are supposed to solder first with hard then medium then easy. I was afraid of doing the inner shank with hard then moving on to the outside with the same afraid that the seam might open? And I didn’t see you do so I guess when you said you are only using the solder as a holding point you don’t need to turn it over and solder the other side? I’m guessing because when you solder the sides that will be enough to hold everything in place? Thanks Melissa I love watching your videos.
👍🏾🖤
Great video as usual, can you tell me where you got your pliers from that look like scissors?
Thanks, I got them on Amazon. They are needle drivers: amzn.to/2M987LU
@@MelissaMuir Thanks Melissa
Great video! But say where do you get those templates?
Thanks. They are in the Book Professional Jewelry Making by Alan Revere. It is a project in the book. There is a link to the book in the description.
👏🏼😍
Where can you buy the book you talk about? Thank you
Hi Larry, You can find it at amazon. The link is above in the description.
Is that a Goss torch you are using?
Abe Goodman yes. It is. I have had it for about 10 years and love it.
@@MelissaMuir I have the same one I wish someone would make a video on the Goss torch how to set it up and different the different challenges in setting it up and proper use :)
I cant get my measurements right 😭
👏👏👏😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
Myself learning jewelry new ring men wedding ? I don't tell 😗😗😗

Nice and professional work. You are creative. Can your address be on Facebook? If possible, please reply. Thank you
facebook.com/groups/261937784657648/
you need to let your viewers know what metal and what karat it is all you said was it was 8 mm and metal
That is because you can use whatever metal you would like. In these videos I use copper and silver.
soLder, its called soLder. The "L" is not silent!
Wayne Parker Lol. Not here in the states my friend. 😊
@@MelissaMuir Lol. Nice work BTW 😁
Wayne Parker thank you.
Video is soo long
Begum Buchay sorry the length of this very detailed and informative video tutorial doesn’t meet with your satisfaction. Perhaps I should have left a lot of the details out? This is basically a full workshop in under an hour.
