HI guys, so I've figured out another way to connect the ring and made it with 18g brass wire. I've included the earlier version that I use glue for joining and made with 20g copper wire too. Both wire gauges would work for the design, so it's up to what you'd prefer. :)
Great job showing us your whole process, it will help me learn new tips and tricks. I too have a flex shaft and haven’t even thought of using it for sanding, buffing and general help. Teaching is part o& your many talents. Thanks for sharing this!
@@MaggieCSAtelier hola Maggie y yo lamento mucho no entender el inglés, estoy fascinada con tus proyectos, me apasiona el alambrismo, yo también lo trabajo pero no tan profesional y hermoso como tú, abrazo!!
Hi Gabriela, I think it would. Just be sure the wire end that tuck in down below is smooth so it wouldn’t scratch the finger. Another reason I have the wire curl it up so the the circle is actually resting on the wire and have better support. Let me know how it turn out for you if you try the way you mentioned. :)
Your tutorial is super easy to follow and understand! I do have a question about the gauge you use. A lot of other tutorials I have seen use thinner wire, however, I have problems with keeping the shape of the rings as its too soft. Would using the thickness you use and tools come for a better end result? I am excited to try this tutorial!
Thanks Jessica. :) Yes using thicker wire would make a more sturdy ring. You’ll need tools that have stronger strength to work with thicker gauge wire, like the one I’m using in the video. I have a video explaining what tools to use, head to my channel and check it out if you like. Happy making!
Yes you could, but be very gentle on the hammering and polishing part. Use only 1000 grits sand paper because you want to preserve the gold layer as much as possible. (The end result may not be the same too.)
Hi Christina, I bought mine from a local craft store. You could try using gorilla glue, but I still think I’d prefer the interlocking method, it’s very sturdy.
Thank you Joyce…! :) It depends which steps. To flatten the wire, use metal head. For shaping the ring on mandrel use plastic/rawhide/nylon. Just exactly shown in this video. Happy making ✨
Hi Theresa! You might find one in hardware shop, depends on your location. Otherwise just order from online market place. I have a link down below in description, check it out if you like.
Hi Maggie- Do you like to use brass and copper with the anti tarnish coating, or just the raw brass or copper? I’m looking to have something last as long as possible without it tarnishing. If you use the tarnish-resistant kind, do you feel that the coating gets rubbed off when using a polishing cloth? (Either when straightening the wire at the beginning, or cleaning it later on) Thanks in advance!!
I like using both raw brass and copper, because they are most widely available and have that nice colours. It’s natural that they tarnish over time. The coated ones are great for projects that doesn’t need sanding and shaping. The coating would stay if you are polishing it with a polishing cloth. But the coating might come off if it is scratch by tools.
Indeed I don’t, I’ll just give it a polish before and after wearing and put them in a zip tight bag. To make brass jewelry more tarnish resistant, you can use renaissance wax for polishing, it’d remain good til the coat worn out.
Buenas tardes amigo, me puedes decir con que tipo de alambre trabajas? te pregunto porque veo que lo texturizas con el martillo 🔨 no se daña o se pone el color feo con el posterior uso?
¡Hola Judit! :) Utilizo latón desnudo y alambre de cobre, son alambres sin recubrimiento. Entonces puedes darles forma y lijarlos. Estoy usando el traductor de Google para traducir esto al inglés, espero que el significado sea correcto: D
Thanks Sandra! That’s the circumference for making the 2 circles, one in 8mm and the other 5mm. You can change it accordingly if you are making different size circles.
Hi The ring is completed at 5:37 if that is what you’re looking for. The second copper ring was the first attempt I was trying out and see how it works with glue.
Hey, I would like to know if we can make your accessory model and sell it as a form of side hustle? Me and my friend are College students who doesnt have time to work in a part time workplace so we were looking for work from home DIY's and found your videos. Every accessories you do are so pretty. So we thought of doing and selling them, May we?
Hi first of all thank you so much for asking. Some people might not even ask. it’s ok to make and sell my designs, but perhaps not all of them. I honour handmade items but the more the creativity and the originality behind it. I really encourage you guys to give the designs a tweak rather than just taking it as it is. Of course there are some universal designs in my channel too where there’s no copyright issue at all. Im hoping that my channel would help makers to learn and grow in making as well as in designing. It’s the uniqueness of your own style that’ll keep attracting customers coming back for more. I wish you guys all the best in your handmade business.

Gorgeous.. would it look ok if you connected but looping over and curling down instead of under and curl up?
Hi Gabriela, I think it would. Just be sure the wire end that tuck in down below is smooth so it wouldn’t scratch the finger. Another reason I have the wire curl it up so the the circle is actually resting on the wire and have better support. Let me know how it turn out for you if you try the way you mentioned. :)

Love these…could i use gold filled wire instead?
Yes you could, but be very gentle on the hammering and polishing part. Use only 1000 grits sand paper because you want to preserve the gold layer as much as possible. (The end result may not be the same too.)
These are beautiful! Can I ask what type of metal glue you use and where you get it? Thanks!
Hi Christina, I bought mine from a local craft store. You could try using gorilla glue, but I still think I’d prefer the interlocking method, it’s very sturdy.
The process
So Pretty! Maggie, Is the hammering for projects like these best done with the plastic head or metal?
Thank you Joyce…! :) It depends which steps. To flatten the wire, use metal head. For shaping the ring on mandrel use plastic/rawhide/nylon. Just exactly shown in this video. Happy making ✨
Thanks Maggie! I’ll try out this project tonite and let u know how it turns out, it looks like a good sturdy design that won’t deform easily :)
Onna try making this one ! Flex shaft ?where do I buy that.? Hardware store?

Hey do you put anything on your brass to prevent tarnishing and oxidation after sanding? Do you have any suggestions?
Indeed I don’t, I’ll just give it a polish before and after wearing and put them in a zip tight bag. To make brass jewelry more tarnish resistant, you can use renaissance wax for polishing, it’d remain good til the coat worn out.
What are the sanding bits you are using here for finishing? I like the length and that they are narrow!
Hi I’m using a slotted mandrel/sand paper holders and I’ve just updated the product link in description below video. Check it out if you like. :)
Es ta ermoso qué material es megusta
Gracias :) Estoy usando latón y cobre, puedes ver todos los detalles de la descripción debajo del video. :)

love this tutorial! why 55 centimeters in the middle? just curious
Thanks Sandra! That’s the circumference for making the 2 circles, one in 8mm and the other 5mm. You can change it accordingly if you are making different size circles.
@@MaggieCSAtelier got it! thank you!
Perfectly Executed ❤
Thank you ☺️
It's so pretty, as usual. May I ask what you use to buff the ring?
Thank you Sandra :) I’m using cotton polishing wheel with white polishing compound .
@@MaggieCSAtelier Thank you so much!
Is this real gold or gold plated wire cause when you brush it, you brush the " gold " away ?
Hi I’m using brass wire in the tutorial. You can check out the material details down below the video description if you like.
I would like to know how to add a stone to this ring.
You can try using drilled stone and thinner wire and wrap it in onto the ring.
Pero no dejaste ver como introducias el alambre par finalizar el trabajo.

Sul secondo anello hai usato una colla?
Ciao sì, l'ho fatto, il secondo squillo è davvero il mio primo tentativo. Ho preferito il metodo del primo anello, è più robusto. :)
Hiii!
Hi there! 👋
Would you be kind enough to share all the tools you used?
