Do you wash your transparent enamels before using ?

Plastic chinese take-out containers with the clear snap-on lids are great for storing project parts.

Beautiful results! Definitely not a job for those short of patience LOL

They should make a left hand threading version of these!

Exactly the video I was looking for, what is a pin vise, what does it do, here I am doing it. Boom.... Subbed

I am trying to find anywhere on the internet that can help remove the ever-growing bubble in my favourite pen! I'd imagine find the leak, and syringe in new oil and glue the end, but any idea what oil is in there? Or is it water?

and wont roll off the table

Nice job...

Babe, wake up, new technique just dropped

Any chance you could tell me where you buy your riveting tools? And the name of the tools? Bucking bar? Thanks James. Great video

Could this be done without solder if you used EDM to machine the cuts for an interference fit with liquid nitrogen on the insert and a torch on the base peice

Please explain how to wrap a tool with an added hole on the handle with thermal heat tubing. Thanks in advance !

Beautiful results! I'd never heard of marriage of metal before, but saw similar pieces and had no idea how it was made... One thing I ask myself now is what about getting the cuts with a CNC router? Sounds like cheating but could be used for semi-manual craft I suppose? Thanks for sharing I really enjoy this channel, specially the Cool Tool series.

You both are funny, great video!

The subject is good, but your video is BAD because YOU DIDN'T SHOW US THE PROCESS. Action sells, words SUCK. Thank you for taking the initiative, but next time show us HOW you do it and if you think parts are tedious, then they are, so speed those actions up with time-lapse.

You still doing this?

First lesson should be how to correctly pronounce solder,it has an L in it :)

I guess people really want to see fire! I'll have to post an updated version! Until then--if you want to try it, just melt solder into the stamped areas & file any excess off...

Show the process?

Good idea (maybe?) but some people might struggle without examples.

How do you get small pieces? You didn't _show_ us anything!

Awesome video! I couldn't find the cold joining compilation booklet on your website, how do I get it?

cool technique, thanks james!

I know this video is a year old, but now I feel silly that I was taking one of these and sticking it into a drill press to use micro-drills.. I had to loosen-turn tighten to get perfect concentricity due to the knurling, but once it was set it did work pretty well! Apparently proper adapters for this already exist.. 'mandrel chuck adapters' seems to be a good way to find them.

Ty!

Thank you for making this video! Love working with filigree wire thanks to you and Umut!

Hello! Do you know which is the minimum thickness you can forming with this technique? Because I have to do a dome shape with an alluminium foil thick of 0.2 mm...

Thanks, James, for sharing this video, it's hard to find specific videos related to filigree work. I do have to point out that after you have filed the solder dust, you should get a strong magnet and remove the metal filings that come off.

Commercialized filigree soldering created in USA by Victoria Lansford

Wow , Look like "Big Guy" knitting..!! 😂

Great and informative video! We need more videos on how to DIY the basics like this (; Do you also have a video showing how you use this powder?

Yes you can buy filligree powder solder at Rio Grande that has been produced for Victoria Langford who does Russian filligree and teaches it

In this video, I’m wearing one of our own “Tool-O-Rama Anvil” aprons that we designed and created along with a “Toolvetica” Metalsmith T-shirt, both from Zazzle. Our “Tool-O-Rama” Anvil design features everything a metalsmith might want or need in their studio. “Toolvetica” is a font inspired by Helvetica but uses jewelry and metalsmithing tools for each letter. As metalsmiths and professors, we’ve been creating each individual tool graphic over the years to embellish our studios and handouts. Just for fun, we made this composite image and printed it on some work aprons for ourselves. We like it so much, we thought we would share it with everyone! You can even order one for yourself or as a gift: www.zazzle.com/store/jamesthurman

Dividers really upped my jewelry game. A trick I discovered about making scribed lines more visible while sawing. I take a micro-fine Sharpy pen and run it along the bur created by the dividers. This lays black right in the grove without thickening the line. So much easier to see. If your touch is light the pen steers itself along the bur. I find this useful when laying out split ring shanks for sawing.

Close ups of the ring and plier tip then one with the ring on the plier an finally rings in use. I know I want this show us all how and where to use them. Thanks

So is this only for copper? I was trying to find information about enamel for cast iron.. Amazon keeps trying to give me acrylic paint and “klyr-fire” which I’m assuming is also not what I am looking for

looks nice!

It's amazing to learn simple techniques for jewelry smithing. As a journeyman blacksmith I will say it's so much more detail oriented rather than just moving the most metal. You have earned a new subscriber!

I love the drop distance tip - what a great time-saver.

Do you have any suggestions for sanding down non flat metal surfaces (say the outside of a metal cylinder)? I assume it’d be better to just use sandpaper without a stick if it’s not flat?

These are fun to make but hard to sell. Modern fabrics don't like to be stuck with big pins as you say. They might be popular with the Live-Action role play (LARP) people. Thanks for the tutorial.

Yup, as technology improves and everyday people are able to produce counterfeit hard currency, digital-only currency becomes an easier sell.

Really wish we could see what you are doing.

Showed up in my feed and thought "depletion gilding" was a roundabout way of saying "balding"

Thanks for sharing nice video- to the point and not too long. Can we do depletion guiding using a kiln? If so what would you recommend for temperature and time? Thx

Some good tips. But I'm puzzled. I thought that liver of sulfur does not work on fine silver because there is no copper present to oxidize and I have not been able to do so when I have tried to oxidize fine silver. But here you say depletion guilding is used in association with patina.
