Texturing Silver & Copper Sheets

Texturing Silver & Copper for Jewelry, Using a Hammer.

[@PreciousRubi]

I’ve just ordered my first texture plate. Nice to see a tutorial on hammering instead of using a rolling mill. I didn’t know that the rolling mill curved the texture plates making them unusable for hand hammering. (Thanks for sharing that information.. it’s very handy to know.) And thanks for showing us what NOT to do. (Ouch!)

Hi Denis,

[@amandathompson4692]

Great information! I love textured metal and usually etch many of my pieces, but the etching process had been a bit unpredictable. Thanks for sharing.

[@ElieGhanimeEG]

Thanks Tammy for watching my videos. However, you are watching my old channel which I can't upload anymore videos because google screwed it up for me. Please subscribe to my new UA-cam channel it's under (Elie Ghanime). Thank you.

[@susanjefferson2926]

Love your videos! Did you purchase the texturing plate or did you make it? If it was purchased, can you tell me where?

[@EgJewels]

Hi Susan, thank you for watching my videos, this particular texture plate I got from Rio Grande. However, if you want real nice ones, you need to see the one Roberta Pihl makes, go to her website www.oregontrailsilver.com and don't forget to mention my name :)

[@susanjefferson2926]

Eg Jewels Wonderful! Thank you

@@EgJewels Thank you for this information. I have been looking for something like this but kept only finding cutsey craft hammers.

[@stationaryenginesworldwide]

Awesome video thank you .......bummer about your finger ...I once closed a car door on my thumb so I know the pain....

[@EgJewels]

Thanks, my finger is not bad right now, I'm glad I didn't break it, the hit was over the nail and not the knuckle.

[@jettewriter]

Where can I get such a large Delrin hammer? (guessing it is Delrin)

[@jettewriter]

[@deborahhardeman8802]

That works on Sterling Silver?

[@EgJewels]

Yes Deborah, you still have to anneal it though.

[@tooncess1]

Thank you for sharing - sorry about your finger.

[@EgJewels]

Thank you for watching and your concern about my finger, I do heal fast so it is okay right now and the black color of trapped blood already gone.

[@pameladunn7346]

where are you located ?

[@ElieGhanimeEG]

I'm in the US. Why you want to know?

[@lindalowney1404]

Thank you for the video, but sorry you hurt yourself. That finger still looks very painful.

[@Kellysred]

[@EgJewels]

That was 5 years ago so I'm okay now 🙂 Thank you for watching my videos!!
