    Very nice. Liked the way you reduced the thickness of the edges with the cutting disc. Thanks for the tips and sharing your knowledge. Cheers Jim

    Just made these. I used a diamond bur and I don’t think it was deep enough. Thank you, Nicole, for sharing your expertise with those of us who aspire to someday work at the level you are
    !

    These are some of the most realistic silver feathers I have seen made on various tutorials. Thank you so much for including the gauge of sheet and wire, saw blade size, and product numbers. I will definitely be making some feathers.

    Thank you!! Your videos are always great and helpful. I do have a question, when applying the LOS, what type of applicator do you use so that the fibers don’t burn while applying it to a hot piece? Also I really like your solder stick / it looks nice and sturdy / can you share your recommend product? Thanks!! Huge fan

    Hi Nicole. I received your book. Very interesting. I red that you had very few tools when you started your smithing journey. Now I can hear you say often.. This is from lionforge etc which are quite expensive tools.
    Do you have ideas about heating from underneeth without these titanium tools? I am in Europe so not easy to get all these beauties from lionforge.
    Thank you for showing your butterfly skills. 🍀

    Wow, you make it look so easy to follow! Beautiful details!
    First time I've seen a piece wet while using a radial disc. Is it to keep the piece cool while polishing?

    • @ringgoldnic
      @ringgoldnic  6 месяцев назад +2

      Not necessarily. It's more about me being lazy and not wiping the piece off. But it doesn't seem to harm it...

    So interesting Nicole!! I never use easy solder! I always learned to work in hard and medium. Do you often always use easy in a full project??

    • @ringgoldnic
      @ringgoldnic  6 месяцев назад +1

      Great question. My students are often surprised by this. When I first began smithing (I'm self-taught), I didn't know there was anything besides easy solder, so I learned how to depend on heat sinks to prevent solder flow. Now, if my work is sculptural, I use hard, medium, and then easy. But if everything sits flush (such as this feather, or a leaf...) then I stick with easy for the entire project.
