Thank you again for making these valuable instructive videos. I am unable to go to back to studies due to health issues and these videos are a life saver. I've been making jewellery for 8 years as a living so learning more skills is essential for me.
Great timing Soham, I was just about to make these. thanks for sharing the 3mm tip as well as the point about annealing prior to re sawing the solder joint to avoid spring. All rings need to be the same size when completed take texturing into consideration
Loved this video Soham. Some truly excellent advice and tips I hadn't even considered. Thanks for demonstrating and explaining things so carefully without going overboard.
It depends on which way the rings face in the grouping, if the rings will roll on your finger smoothly or not. If it seems like it’s not rolling on smoothly, make the rings face other ways in the grouping after they’ve been soldered. The way Soham has in on his finger the last few seconds of the video, they are facing the wrong way. Only a person who’s worn this for long periods knows this. You can see it slid on his finger earlier in the video the smooth way. They don’t have to be soldered differently, just flip them around til they roll on finger smoothly. I wore a ring like this for thirty yrs.
I so appreciate your videos. Your calm voice, your attention to good, clear camera shots, and your simple instructions. Perfect for person like me who is working at this from time to time on my own. Thank you.
My name is Luke by the way, 37years of age from Australia, im starting a little late but l am gonna be good at it l know it because l have a great passion for it and l love it, ive got the bug so to say Lol. l am a sufferer from a young age of a lot of medical problems and things going wrong with me in my life but l am still kind and friendly to everyone and everything in this devine world of god, and l am so glad jewling and You has come into my life it is my excape! it brings me so much joy in lifes hard road. Sorry to bug you so much by the way' 😔 l have researched hundreds of hours watching videos like yours and l have started experimenting with making some jewelry. The road is fun. Thanks again for the detailed video's and your support my freind, you're one of my hero's. And am grateful to know you 🤗 🌄🌠🌈 you are a KING OF KING'S. Thanks again Soham.

My jewelry bench set up at home is almost complete and I'm excited to try this out! I plan to make a few for my partner's family members because their family helped make my bench a reality. I really love how you teach!
When I’m out of my class in my own studio and it all feels like it’s going wrong . I come to you and i see what I haven’t done so I can rectify it . Thank you for your videos . X
Fantastic video as always. You have been the base of my learning silversmithing skills all the way over here in sunny California :) I love that ring I am going to try it. Could you add more rings if a customer wanted you to? Could you make it a 6 rings ring? If you did would you always put all the rings inside the current ring? Every time you add another ring you always put all the current rings inside of it before you solder it the second time. I hope that makes sense, I love that ring!
I saw your question and think it's an interesting concept and honestly I think I've seen bangles in this style. You could always experiment using copper wire to get your measurements right before spending lots of money on silver. Btw, Home Depot (if you're in the US) sells bare copper wire by the foot (12ga up to 4ga) really cheap. The 12ga copper wire is $0.28 per foot and 4ga is $1.59 per foot. They sell 14ga by the foot also but it's covered and has to be stripped. Anyway, that's where I buy my copper round wire if I need larger than 14ga wire. Good luck to ya'! 😃
I love your work and your videos! I am wondering why it is 3mm we add to the length? I would imagine it would change depending on the dimensions of the wire you are using?
Awsome Soham thank you kindly Sir, your videos are the best and you are a very helpful teacher, thanking you. l am very grateful to watch you work, l am starting to learn and l love it so much, its in my blood to be a jeweller and your always there to help me. Thanks heaps and heaps 🤗✌
I’m a first year jewelry student in High School, and I bought a ring similar to this and it got stolen. I’ve been looking around for a good tutorial to follow, and here it is!! Thank you so much.
Soham, I love your work! Your tutorials have helped me so much, thank you. I am from The UK and am visiting my brother in NZ early next year. Do you run classes in Perth? I would be really tempted to fly over so I learn from you for a couple of months.
Hi Mr Sohan, I am still confused with the 3mm extra to each ring for overlap. Is it calculated as shown below? Extra Length to each Ring = no. of rings x thickness of each ring/wire Should we consider width of the individual rings? And how should we consider the texturing of the rings? And what about the overall width of the completed ring? To accommodate the comfort of a wide band/ring. You used a half-round wire, if a flat band was used, how much more length to each ring do you think would be needed?
sarahfrancyjewellery it is just the thickness times how many rings. the profile doesn't matter. texturing is a bit of a problem since the solder join is difficult to clean up, but you cound texture the one you don't cut.
Hi Soham, is there a certain grade of solder that is expected for jewelry standard to be able to stamp it 925, what purity of solder do you buy? Is it 50/60 percent silver or higher or lower. 🤔
How am i supposed to find the real owner of this 925 silver trinity ring,written the initial as E i think it is russian? Since it was in my possesion 17 years ago,it never detached in my finger eversince i wore it. My mother gave it to me when I was in my high school year 2003. I just thought maybe someone is my soulmate.heheh.
Thank you for all your tutorials. I have a question regarding the Russian wedding ring: do you always add 3 mm, no matter what the thickness of the metal is?
so what's the calculation for the overlap extra 3mm? or is that just a rough compensation estimate pulled out the air that seems to work>? great vids dude

Excellent tutorial!
Hi Soham.
Would it be the same principal for a bangle? what gauge wire would you recommend?

Mr Harrison
I love you lessons.You are the best teacher. Thank you
Mr soham u r too good ..i m jst confused in ring size ...how u achieved ur ring size ...?
The Jewellery you making is always give me a huge impression!
Love to watch your video :)
Soham, would you always add 3mm regardless of the size of the wire you are using? If not, is there a formula?
Fantastic video as always. You have been the base of my learning silversmithing skills all the way over here in sunny California :)

Every time you add another ring you always put all the current rings inside of it before you solder it the second time. I hope that makes sense, I love that ring!
Soham,
Is it possible to use the same technique to produce a bracelet? I am thinking, copper, silver and ?

What is the best solder for silver rings? Do you use hard, medium, soft? What about solder paste?
Thank you! This was helpful and enjoyable :)
Another beauty, Soham!
May I ask where you got that device with which you hallmarked the piece? And those lovely, super heavy duty third hands?
rio grande
hi mr soham i want to ask u how to make a bangle tube oval with gold thank you very much
Thank you! Brilliant!
it all is good, but hard has the best colour match
Just beautiful! 👌

Thank you so much!
Hi Soham, is there a certain grade of solder that is expected for jewelry standard to be able to stamp it 925, what purity of solder do you buy? Is it 50/60 percent silver or higher or lower. 🤔
hard solder is above 70% silver, use that
What Gauge of wire would be the best for a womans ring?
Soham, do you by any chance make custom made rings to order?
How am i supposed to find the real owner of this 925 silver trinity ring,written the initial as E i think it is russian? Since it was in my possesion 17 years ago,it never detached in my finger eversince i wore it. My mother gave it to me when I was in my high school year 2003.

It's been a long time! Hope you've been okay.
Thank you for all your tutorials. I have a question regarding the Russian wedding ring: do you always add 3 mm, no matter what the thickness of the metal is?
no, if the metal is thicker you need to add more.
So, I would add according to the thickness of the metal.
Thank you, Soham. I appreciate you help very much.
@@1soham1 so did you add 3 because you had 3 1 mm rings? I missed why you added 3.
so what's the calculation for the overlap extra 3mm? or is that just a rough compensation estimate pulled out the air that seems to work>? great vids dude
twice the height of the wire, so more rings would mean more added on. same with the bigger wire, more added on
ahhh thought so - cheers mate! peace
Mr. Soham .. how to do it with a Six rings ?
each ring you add you must add the thickness (height of the wire) to the end of all the rings. 6 1mm thick rings would add 6mm to all the rings.
Thx Mr. Soham (Y)
This was the first ring I made back in high school
Schmick? New word for me.
Just found the answer! I should have dug deeper in your answers to the comments!
mr soham how to dotiwith six rings nichloe yes ko love
girsl is ko go
you would just have to keep making them bigger for each added ring, and yes, always make sure all the rings are in the new one
