This is a great tutorial! Thank you!
Thanks Susan you are a great instructor 😄
Pretty! A craft I haven't tried yet. You have me thinking about it. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for the great tips❤️
Loved your tutorial!!
Brilliant!! I love the "cheat sheet" and tanks so much for a fabulous tutorial!!! I'm off to make some bangles now...X
Thank you Susan, you have a great way of teaching. Thanks for sharing and I learned a lot. Trying the stacking rings first and this is next. Ty!!!!!
Awesome! I just bought a soldering kit.
Love this ❤❤❤
Thank you so much .
Thank you ... I really enjoyed this! I would like to see you make a thicker bangle and also what about dipping the bangle in gold? HAPPY NEW YEAR
You are a wonderful teacher! I've wanted to learn to solder for such a long time but was too intimidated to even try despite my creative yearnings!
So the jooltool is too awesome! You are such an inspiring teacher!
ty! bravo
Thanks for the great tutorial! 💕 I haven’t invested in the tools needed just yet, but I am looking forward to it!!
I want to know how to make the pronged ring you are wearing! That is my inspiration ring. Love watching your videos, I am so inspired. I have my tap and wrap pliers arriving tomorrow :).

Amazing tutorial. I am just about to start soldering. 😊
Can you do a tutorial on your gorgeous big turquoise ring?
It's our next video!
great instructional video! Interesting polishing machine. Did you specifically choose this one to make it easier to shoot?
I love your art❣️ One question; doesn’t shaping the wire change the size?
What’s that gorgeous big ring you are wearing? Do you have a video on that? I love big stones for rings!! You are great btw!
Coming Soon!
Susan what solder would I use for carbon steel wire? And what cleaning method if it’s not compatible with pickle?
Can you do skinny rings with irregular shaped gemstones in prong setting?
Love your tut, can you please show us how to make that gorgeous ring you are wearing, and what is that amazing stone??. Happy New Year 🎊🎆🎈
Coming soon!
I love all your soldering videos
Hi Kimberly! We think it depends on your design. If you're adding beads, you may want to wrap those onto the finished crown and that would require a slightly more "bendable" wire. Anything 20ga and up (22, 24, 26). The crown needs to hold it shape in order to wear, so probably a harder wire like 16ga or 18ga wire. Cut some small sections of wire and test out the different gauges, making loops and bends to see which holds best. You can use a bracelet mandrel as a curved surface to help you hammer the wire to work harden it a little. Hope this helps!
can you soldering the silver plated wire ?
Does aqui flux protect godd fill metals too or is it not recommended as a barrier flux for GF? Awesome video, thanks!
From Susan: It is prefect for gold filled - just remember - heat is NOT your friend with gold filled. The faster you work…the better!
Thank you for the tutorial; I'm learning so much! What kind of solder paste do you use for copper wire? Thanks again?
You can use a no 65 soft solder paste in sterling silver. If the joint is small enough, you can file and buff it and the difference in color won't be noticeable. You can also oxidize it with liver of sulphur to colorize the whole piece. Hope this helps!
@@JewelSchool , YES, thank you so much!
Do you have a video that shows how to set a flat stone onto a pendant, ring, and or bracelet!
Here you go! ruclips.net/video/yFqnfN3DTxM/видео.html
I wish for a jointed bangle former to be able to add beads to the wavy curves. Or is there a way to add beads to the wavy bangles?
It would be really hard to add beads to the wire itself, but you can wrap on beads at the end using a different wire. Here is a tutorial that shows you how:

Can you use solder for other metals, like silver toned wires? I’m pretty sure they’re brass and then coated with the silver non tarnished coating? Sterling silver always turns black on me…
Thank you for sharing!! 💜
No, you can’t because those types of wires are plated over base metals like: Copper, Brass, Bronze, etcetera, the only types of metals that can be soldered are these types: Silver, Argentinan Silver and Sterling Silver, you would use Silver soldering wire or paste and for Gold, Rose Gold, and White Gold, you would use a solder specifically made for Gold metals! I hope this helps and answers your questions!!!! Happy Soldering!
@@jaderene Thank you so much!! Happy New Year!! 💜
I'd love to make some of these!! Can you please tell me what the inside diameter of the bracelet is after it's been formed? Doesn't it loose some size due to the shaping, or does the wire stretch? Thank you.
Hi Sally. The inside of the diameter, which Susan marks as a "medium" on her bracelet mandrel is just shy of 2-1/2 inches on the inside.
How do you polish.
Can you teach us how to use gold filled wire? What is dead soft/hard? What lasts to use?
You use gold filled like you use any other wire, you’d prob just be a LOT more cautious to prevent waste. Gold filled isn’t recommended for soldering because the wire core is copper. Dead soft wire is just that….soft. It bends easily, and stays where it’s bent. Hard wire is harder, resistant to bending and springs back when you try to bend it. Half hard is midway between. Any dead soft wire will harden as you work it but it can be softened again by annealing. By last’s, do you mean mandrels? A mandrel is a shaping tool, but you can also get ring forming pliers, ring , bezel and bangle mandrels, forming stakes etc. It depends on what you want to do.
So putting it in the die would reduce the bangle yes??
Looking for more in-depth instruction like this using gold FILLED wire. Can you help?
Gold filled isn’t recommended for soldering because it has a core of copper which can mess up the joint. There are people who do it but personally I wouldn’t….stick to cold connections. Also to solder it so it doesn’t show you’d need gold solder…..which is very expensive.
Can you please help me, what do I use when soldering copper? Is there copper solder paste?
You can use copper solder paste, but sterling silver solder paste will work too! As long as you file and buff the joint, Susan say's no one will be able to tell!
Where can one buy that jooltool you used for buffing and polishing?
Hi Debbie! JTV is sold out of it at the moment, but you can get it straight from the Jool Tool site! jooltool.com/
Susan where did you get your solder tools they seem to be good quality
Here is a link to the basic soldering kit! www.jtv.com/product/soldering-basics-supply-kit-includes-torch-tweezers-pick-board-paste/JSYT15?mcid=XSOjsyt
Ok thank you
Can I use the bangle die with memory wire? Thank you!
It's not recommended. Susan says, "memory wire is not malleable to form like that."
Thanks!!
can you hammer the bangle after using the press ?
You can hammer it for texture. Just be sure not to hammer too hard and using a bracelet mandrel.
How many people have a bangle die do you think? Particularly beginners to whom this seems to be aimed!
Are you using half hard or full hard wire?
half hard wire is being used here. The only full hard wire we use on the channel is memory wire.
Where can I purchase the Jooltool?
Such a popular tool! We are sold out of it, but luckily it's available on Jool Tool's website. Here is the link! jooltool.com/collections/jooltool-kits
@@JewelSchool Thank you!!
14 ga silver wire = 1.6 mm?
Susan says it's a little under 2mm. She also says that 1.5mm will be too small of a diameter and won't hold it's shape. Hope this helps!
@@JewelSchool thanks ;)
We’re can I get a bengel die
