The recipient of this gorgeous necklace is one lucky lady! Truly loved watching and learning from you. Thank you Megan💞
You're so sweet, thank you so much!😊 And you're so very welcome
Lovely design. Good tip about the side that the clasp goes on. Thanks Megan.
Thanks! She ABSOLUTELY loved it! 🤗 And yes! I learnt that years ago while working at a jewellery store in London
Im new to silversmithing and I’m learning so much from your videos. ❤
I'm so glad!
Hiya gold finger,
Well done, thank you. I would have used a smaller drill bit and thrummed the holes with triple. Thrumming is running string that you embed with cause then finer polishing compound. Use different pieces of string for each compound.
Stay safe, Steve...
Hi Steve, I hope you are well.
Thanks for the tips. For the purpose of this beginner series I just wanted to keep it very simple and easy and with limited kit. ;) Stay safe, Megan
Would it be possible to have a little guidance on multi point soldering? Like clusters of flowers, how to solder without melting other areas or, other areas moving? Super useful videos! Thank you 😊
Hi Maz, great question! As it's a bit of a long answer so I will answer it in one of my future videos 👍
I love that you keep the protective film on when you are piercing. It certainly keeps the piece clean and scratch-free. I have been taking it off but not any more. 👍 Also for filing out the small 'holes' I use an abrasive cord instead of a blade in my saw frame. Love this video ❤️
Hi Dawn, yup, it really saves time cleaning up the surface afterwards. ;) And that's awesome! Yes I hear they are great! As I don't really do much fine cut out work in my own jewellery, I haven't invested in one.
Beautiful work Megan as always ❤. love your videos so much
Thank you so much!
Love your tutorials ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much!!
Great. Idea
You’re very welcome!
Beautiful pendant , but I have two questions
Why didn't you polish the pendant to give it a shine?
Why didn't you Solder the jump rings ??
Personal choice. ;) Obviously feel free to do what you feel suits you best.
I would be interested in the creative workshop.
Hi Michelle thanks for your interest. That's great. I'll make a follow up video with more info when it's ready. ;)
I would love a workshop of creating new collection :-)
Awesome! Good to know. I'm working on it and will announce it in a video when it's ready. But feel free to email me so I have your details. My email address is: megancollins.co@gmail.com ;)
When I saw the thumbnail I instantly felt the pain of cutting it out 🤣
Haha! Yeah it definitely took some time!
Beautiful 💙
Thank you! 😊
Very informative video thank you. You have great skill with the saw.
Would it have been easier to do all the internal cut outs before cutting the outside shape, so that you have more sheet to hold onto when doing the internal cut outs?
Another thought is do you ever use a burnisher at 45deg on the cut edges to give a glint from those edges?
I hope you don't mind me asking.
Love the new video! This touches my heart as one of my daughters friends loved butterflies and we just celebrated her life this last week. ❤️🦋 Also, at the end it is funny that you mentioned about a work shop about how to create a collection as I was going to ask you how you do that? Do you just see items in the world? Think of memories? I would be very interested in this as you need some pieces to start with and I have a few ideas but not sure where to go from there.
Hi Kim, I'm sorry for the late response. Aaah! I'm so sorry to hear of her passing, but touched that my video was well timed to honour her. ❤️🦋
And yes, I will be doing a mini course on this in a little while. ;)
Beautifull work, congratulations from Chile..
Thank you!
Beautiful! I don’t see for sale, any chance you are making more to sell. Love your work.
Thanks so much! I don't sell this design. It was a one off commission piece. ;)
A workshop would be grearl
Thanks for the feedback!😊
What size saw blade did you use please?
I love this necklace! What a precise and meticulous work! It’s amazing !
Merci beaucoup!!
Hi do you tumble your pierced jewelry after filling it , just curious as I’m still new to piercing with the saw .
Yes it's generally a good idea, but it depends on the thickness of the metal. If the item feels weak, pop it in the tumbler. Think of it this way: Heating metal softens so you can manipulate it, and any kind of friction (sanding, hammering, tumbling) hardens. If you have only pieced and not soldered and the metal is quite thick (like mine here) then tumbling isn't really necessary in terms of hardening, but it can be nice to increase shine if you want that. I was happy with how it was, so didn't here. ;)
@@megan.collins thank you that clears things up for me .
Hey yes please do collections course ,^_^^_^^_^
Awesome, thanks for the feedback.
When using the blade for a file, would it be better to use a wax blade that cuts on all sides?
