I am in love. You have the most amazing voice.
Great video. You not only answered my questions but you answered questions that I didn't even think about.
Thanks, that's nice of you to say :)
I always anneal my silver in a darkened room rather than u der a electric light reason being , under electric light you tend to overheat the silver because it will take longer for you to notice the glow. If you anneal in a darkened environment, you will rarely overheat because you will notice the first hint of glow when you get the heat at the correct temperature
Great. This answered all my questions. Thank you!
Glad it helped :)
This has helped me soooooo much! I didn’t know what I was doing before. I truly appreciate it!
Thank you so much
Very nice.
Don't judge a book by its cover, they said,
Judge the temperature by the colour... Well, both are true... Just lovely!
Got more energy than I do. These days I heat it, beat it, and then I'm done. 😇
You 'air cooled' the silver, then quenched? For copper / brass is it the same? Seems neither natural cooling nor full quenching?
Some people like to let them completely cool or at least go grey. I'm impatient, as long as it's not still glowing red, it's fine to quench. In theory you're meant to leave brass to completely cool as if you shock it, it can harden rather than soften but I've never had any issues with this so I just quench it as soon as I've switched my torch off.
I'm a little confused by the torch part. "I'm going to turn it to the left, lefty loosey"... and then you turned it to the right..? Lol
The part with the torch in the video is mirrored, don't know why.
You are a cutie pie !
Lovely, informative video. Good vibes. Thanks!
