    I love the idea of putting it through draw plate. Never thought of that! You explain things so well in your videos, and I appreciate your emphasis on safety!

    • @OnlineJewelryAcademy

      Hi Susan, I'm so glad that you enjoyed the video (and my presentation). We have a few more wire twisting videos coming in the weeks ahead. Using a draw plate on a twisted wire can produce some really interesting results. In the case of the wire created in this video, drawing it through the draw plate makes it easier to solder to flat surfaces to make design enhancements. Have fun playing with your wire.

    I have found that if you use a old style manual hand drill or crank powered drill you can get the same quality as a power drill, but you can control the speed and you're able to have more control over your wire with the fact it will only go the speed that your hand can crank the handle. You can still buy them online and find them in hardware stores and at yard sales or places that sell old used tools.

    Beautiful, John!
    When you are annealing a piece like this that may be longer than your solderite board or annealing pan and can't be folded up, how do you do it? In stages?

    • @OnlineJewelryAcademy
      @OnlineJewelryAcademy  6 лет назад +3

      Hi Wendy, That's a great question. The wire that I demonstrated with was longer than my soldering and annealing surfaces. It was also too stiff to coil it as well. So, what I did was I lined up all of my annealing and soldering surfaces and just did the wire in one shot. You could anneal in stages too. Just be sure to try to achieve an even annealing. Otherwise, you'll have some areas along the wire that won't behave like the rest of the wire. I hope that helps. Have fun twisting your wires.

    Very good instructional video as always John👍. Can I used the rolling mill after twisted as well?

    • @OnlineJewelryAcademy
      @OnlineJewelryAcademy  6 лет назад

      Hi Alice, Running twisted wire may or may not produce great results. For example, when you run wires that are twisted together through the rolling mill they often wind up with gaps between them. And, mono-twisted wires loose detail except on the edges. But, don't just take my word for it. Run a few samples through your rolling mill and see what you get. You might like some of the results of your experiments.

    Thanks for the clear and concise instructions. What gauge wire were you using in the video? I will definitely give this a go.

    • @OnlineJewelryAcademy
      @OnlineJewelryAcademy  6 лет назад

      I was using a 10 gauge square wire in the video. It's good to start off with a big wire since you'll be reducing its profile when you draw it through the draw plate. Glad you liked the video.

    What if you don’t have the money for the vise and the plate with the holes. What can you use in its place?

    • @OnlineJewelryAcademy
      @OnlineJewelryAcademy  Год назад +2

      The Native Americans would drill holes of various sizes through a hardwood board to create a drawing plate. They would thread their piece through a hole and grab the end with pliers. Then, they would lay on their back with their knees bent. Using the power of their legs they would pull the piece through the board. I'm sure you can find a demonstration of this technique online. Good luck with your projects! Thanks for watching! 😀🍀

      @OnlineJewelryAcademy  Год назад

      I don’t have a good substitution to recommend to replace the vise. But the draw plate could be replaced with a piece of hardwood drilled with holes of varying diameters. The wooden tool will wear it out. But it is a workable, temporary fix.😀

      You need to use a drawplate and draw the wire down to the perfect size. The OJA has a video or two on that in its playlist. 😉
