you can be, but many metal artists learned by watching youtubes and reading books more than in classes! google for metalsmithing classes in your area. sometimes called jewelry classes. if it's teaching you basic soldering and rivets and such, you'll learn a lot of the right skills and can take it further on your own. theres's also some good metalsmithing basics and lapidary basics fb groups out there.
There are online classes you can take. A friend of mine has even been self teaching through watching RUclips videos! Saving up for the bigger tools like the saw and sander is usually the biggest barrier. What I'm doing is starting by making very simble stone jewelry with tumbles that I've bought, and ones I've found and tumbled myself. Then with the profits I make selling those, I'm getting better tools that'll let me try new skills. Right now I'm doing wire wrapping and saving up to get what I need for silver soldering and metal clays. Once I've mastered silver solder and metal clay, I'm going to save up for more tumblers, and a wet saw and sander. When I've mastered that, I'll be looking into what I need for metal casting! Break it all down into steps starting as far away from your end goal as possible, and as you mastering each part you'll be slowly raising the money to start the next. Of course this takes years. I actually started my journey doing simple beadwork jewelry 8-9 years ago. It was only 2 years ago I decided to focus on gemstones, and then decided I wanted to go the whole way of carving stones and designing my own fittings. I'm disabled and below the poverty line, so my process is very slow. But it's worth it since I enjoy it! And if you're lucky you might find people near to you who won't mind sharing tools and secrets. 😊
@@shibibi1 that's amazing and is inspiring me to continue building my skills as well. I'm where you have started off, making beaded earrings and using metal wire to create new things, supplies are limited, but I'm hoping to continue and get into casting metal one day. Good luck on your journey, I'd love to see your jewellery
Brilliant! Once again, I was simply mesmerized as I watched you do your thing! Phenomenal! I would never have thought to use a separating disc on a gemstone!!!! Once more you’ve blown my mind! Thanks for the share!
I have learned more from your videos than any other channel. I have way more unnecessary equipment thinking it’s going to make things easier, but watching your videos, your skill is EVERYTHING! Thank you!❤
every time i watch you heat a piece that bright red while soldering i get so anxious. you always pull it off, but when I try it i just get a sad silver lump........ one day i'll have this level of control. one day.
Who knew this was so easy!?! I’m going right into my kitchen and make myself a tiny rose quartz dagger pendant y’all! For real, you make this seem as simple as pasta! Absolutely stunning piece by a true artist! 😎
Thank you SO MUCH for showing all that. It answered some questions for me that I’ve been worrying over for quite some time. Very Inspirational Stuff! Gonna have to dig out my old stuff and make some stuff too now. 😂 You’re the BEST! 😁
Wow, that was awesome to watch, thank you. Your workmanship is amazing. I really enjoyed watching you make that beautiful trinket. Some lucky person will get to wear it. 👏👏👏 watching in Brisbane Australia 🦘🇦🇺
That is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!! If I had a disposeable income, I'd have bought it the moment it left your hands once completed! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I understand why it’s priced the way it is, I totally get it, but that doesn’t stop me from wishing it was cheaper so I could have it 😩 gorgeous
this is my outlook on most things that cost money😂
@@fish871same😭
This is actually the most gorgeous pendant I've ever seen. Beautiful work!
Thank you
That sword is the sword that shattered pink diamond!!
I clicked on this video fully expecting Steven Universe references, thank you for fulfilling my expectations.
@@pinkbuninja6536 Same lol. Also I feel there are a lot of huge Steven Universe fans like me, but I can't find any of them 🥲
YESSSS! the fandom lives on
Glad I’m not the only one who thought of Rose’s sword of SU
О да, я зашëл на видео ради этих комментариев
The finished item is truly stunning but it was a terrifying watch in places!
I wish I could be trained in things like this... like an apprentice
