Good to remember to oil it. Occasionally, I forget. Know what I get for that? Broken blade lol. Dude excellent channel. I am still an amateur but already made and sold a few nice things. I love to craft, being disabled it is my one outlet that really takes my mind completely off my pain. Your presentations are very thorough and articulate, thanks!
Well thank you and you might want to check out my newer video on using saws, it's a lot better haha. If you need any help or have any questions please feel free to contact me I will try to help as much as I can.
Preciate the video, I’m new to making custom jewelry but I love it an I’m screwing everything up as I go but as I do I take what I mess up an do something else but my messing up is becoming less an less so I know I’m on the right track. Thanks for the vid.
Thanks for this Randy.. it's amazing that a video this old is still so helpful! Not only that, still encouraging and informative, no frills and you talk us right through it.. very reassuring!
Thanks. A lot of my videos in the beginning I shoot without talking at all and in editing I did all of the voice work so it made the videos shorter without me waiting time thinking of what to say haha. It takes a lot longer to shoot videos like that so I started talking as I shoot so it made editing easier for me but made my videos a lot longer. 😅
@@GomeowCreations It works for me! Hahaha!
A really useful video. Many thanks. Toni
Don't even have a saw yet and this video is fascinating and informative. Edit to Add: I decided to buy the saw you suggest from the marketplace link, and subscribed. Thanks for the vid. you answered questions I didn't even know I had! I'd had multiple saws in my list for months but your explanation helped make the decision easier.
Happy to help 😁👍
Beautiful work
Excellant 'how to' with great tips. Thanks 😊
Thank you so much
This is so helpful, I have been breaking so many blades lately
Love it, do what works!
Thank you and I have made an updated video about this 😁👍
Very informative
Thank you
really intresting video! very usefull and and clear
This has helped me SOOOOO much. Thank you!!!!!!
Glad it helped 😁
That knife is gorgeous!
haha my neo chrome knife.
Thanks for this!
No problem
Copper inflexible - easier to cut due to resistance to bending when cutting pressure is applied.
Brass flexible - harder to cut due to bending when cutting pressure is applied. Got it! Never knew that.
What a lovely clef design you cut out. Makes me want to cut metal all day. It was very soothing to listen to your voice.
Thanks Randy, for another great tutorial! Thank you for no music!
One tip - when you showed the polished cut out at the end, the links blocked the view completely. This was frustrating. Try to place links elsewhere or wait a bit longer till the end of the video. Too many folks are plastering links all over the grand finale.
Thanks I will have to look at that and fix it to see if I can make that look a bit better
really helpful to show the chart!
😁👍
Thanks so much for all the information and details. Here goes nothing! eek.
No problem 👍 and let me know how it goes and if you have any problems feel free to ask.
that was amazing thanks!
😁
Great video thanks
No problem 😊
Thank you :)
No problem. Happy to help.
8:05 DAMN that is a NICE knife, man!
Thanks, it is so dull now that I couldn't cut butter with it now. Haha
I have that same knife! lol. nice channel man!
😁
Thanks alot!
No problem 😊👍
You explained everything so clearly Randy, am new to this and I have sold some nice ones with names using brass and stainless steel metal
Please what’s the name of the oil you using?
Good job.
عاش الخير
Un Grand Merci pour ce cours magistral 👍
No problem 😀
Wow! That's amazing! I love music and the treble clef symbol. The first wire jewelry I made and sold were treble clef earrings. You are very good at that.
❓I was wondering if Gulf Wax (it's wax used in canning and candy making) could be used to lubricate the saw blade? I've got to buy a saw to make the copper rings from your other tutorial but I already have wax (and olive oil) on hand. Thanks! 🙂
Yeah can really use anything that will keep the metal and blade lubed. I use cut lube now for all of my sawing, drilling and burr work. 😁👍
5:25 most guys can handle a steady rhythm of this motion... like, almost instinctively :-D
Haha yeah that is funny and I think about that when I'm sawing and someone walks up behind me and I want to know what they are thinking haha
Really interesting! I have a question: I am using 5/0 blades to cut pearl (MOP) of 1.3mm thick. It is really difficult to not break a blade every 15 minutes of cutting. Do i have to wax more? Any suggestions to improve durability? Thanks in advance
Ah! I keep breaking my blades.....I used the dremmel now. LOL ...I have a long way to go! Thank you I love your videos.
Maybe I could help with that. What size blades are you using and what size metal and you cutting in mm.
@@GomeowCreations band ring is 0 .28 x -0.35...blade #2 ....I think my problem is I don't know how to put the blade in tight, so it does not curve and I end up putting to much pressure in the middle of the blade and it breaks! Thank you so much for replying.
Try a 3/0 or 2/0 blade and see if that helps at all. I do have a better video about this on my channel let me find the link.
ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
@@GomeowCreations Thank you ! I have homework now....lol.
You are always so informative. What kind of paper comes with adhesive on it, and where could it be purchased?
You can used something like this with your normal printer amzn.to/3tOWLzU
Thank you very good instructional.
Would the saws work on stainless flatware?
It's a bad idea to use cooking oil as a machine lubricant, because (as you observed at the beginning), it gets sticky as it gets old and exposed to air. There are many other mineral-based oils that will not get gummy. I get "Cool Tool-II" cutting and tapping fluid in a squeeze-bottle, to put a drop right where I need it. Or you could use ordinary 3-in-1 oil, or save a few cc's of motor oil next time you work on your car. But NOT cooking oil!
You are 100% right. I now only use pro cut when using my saw. I will be remaking this video in the near future.
You can put the metal into the vice before passing the blade through it. Much easier imo. Edit: curious why you don't use a vice or clamps to attach to the work surface?
I watched another video before I watched yours. It was just about inserting the blade. They made it so over complicated. At the end she strummed the blade like a guitar! Ha ha! Your way is much easier! I think that's a big part of my problem. I am not loading the blade with enough tension. It's so awkward for me because the screws are on the right side when holding the frame like you are in this video and making the adjustments with my right hand is awkward because it's not as strong and coordinated as my left. I feel like I cannot hold the blade tight enough too.
Damn righties, you guys get everything! The can openers, the scissors, the pens at the bank that are attached to the string!! lol.
Hi, what i do for lubricant is use soap, you take a bar of soap, like Ivory or any cheap soap, put it in a container with just a bit of water in it, to keep one side of the soap a bit scummy, then you just run it along the blade from time to time, works very well. Soap also works well to lubricate screws before screwing them, which ends up a bit like glue once the soap dries up in the screw hole.
Well thank you for that info 😊 I have made a new updated video about this using waxes ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html but I will keep the soap in mind.
@@GomeowCreations I sent your jeweler's saw video to a friend, I've tried showing her how to use it but as soon as I'm not there she either forgets how, that way she'll have a reference, she seems to have a problem with sawing downward hehe.
Haha that is odd, make sure she is using the right saw blade and not to push too hard maybe?
@@GomeowCreations Well I explained all of this to her multiple times, she wanted me to give her lessons but I gave up as she does not really listen, I think she may have a problem having a man teaching her hehe.
Hi this is a good video thank you. I want to use a saw on thin wood. And can you tell me where you got your metal bench pin? (I believe its called that but correct me if its wrong) thank you
Great video. I love when people are thorough in their explanations. So I just purchased my first saw. I'm totally new to this. For now I'm experimenting on small metal pieces I got from Michael's. Can you maybe share a link to a place to get metal sheets? Thanks again. I will be subscribing for lessons!
+Notorious Lee Thank you. This is the sheet metal I use. If you need something bigger then this you can search "copper sheet metal" on ebay.
www.hobbylobby.com/Crafts-Hobbies/Hobbies-Collecting/Tools-Blades/-025-Copper-Sheet/p/21779
Oh in this video I use oil for cutting and it can mess up the paper pattern so now I'm using something called cut lube. Its like a wax, you can also use beeswax.
If you have any suggestions for new videos or any questions feel free to ask. :)
GomeowCreations thank you so much! I watch a lot of tutorials online for various things and I'm so mad that there's no Hobby Lobby's in NY where I live! I know I can order online but I'm more of a tactile shopper. However, in a case like this. I have no choice but to do so. Apparently jewelry making isn't big here on Long Island. There are only two bead stores within a reasonable distance from me and only one of them is worth the 20 minute drive. There's TONS of good stores in Manhattan but that's a whole big trip.
Anyway. I subscribed to your channel earlier today and plan on poking around a bit. Once I do, I'll see if there's any tutorials I'd like. I want to learn so much! It's another expensive hobby! I just purchased a book called, The Jewelry Makers Field Guide and it has some pretty cool beginner stuff in there.
Thanks again! I am looking forward to watching!
GomeowCreations can you suggest a silver colored metal that is easy to work with for beginners?
You can use nickle, aluminum is hard to solder without melting.
I started with copper and brass only. Even now I will test new ideas in copper or brass before moving on to silver.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
I have a slimier problem here finding supplies. I can go to LA but that is a 200 mile round trip. So for 99% of my supplies I get them online at riogrande.com or ebay.com.
my teacher is a lot slower, he started teaching us how to start a cut, having us starting them hours at a time so the saw wouldnt slit and scratch everithing then, continuing the cuts a bit longer, now he is making us cut strips, all of this in 4 weeks, we will be practicing cuttin for 3 months and he says that that depends on our quality so we should practice at home
Well practice is good when it comes to sawing but they sounds like a little much. I also have a newer version of this video. ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
well, the guy who teaches me, wen he was a noobie like me, they made him practice cutting for an entire year
Yeah that's over kill for just one technique.
one of the bases of others, ive met his alumns and they thank him
Hi great video! I’m recently Got my hands on a giant bag of old silverware that I’m going to turn into spoon rings. Do you think that a jeweler saw would be able to cut through the metal of the spoon? And if so is there a specific blade that you would recommend! Thank you so much!
I'd they are not steel you can cut them with no problems. I use a 3/0 and 2/0 for most things. 😁👍 I need to make a video about working with silverware
Thanks just started and your videos are very helpful . Is there an alternative to using " ILLUSTRATOR" by Adobe for making your designs on paper. Seem very expensive for the little I'd use it. Also , What type of adhesive do you use to glue your design on to the metal .THANKS
Well I made this video years ago now but you can get something called inkscape now that is basically a free version on illustrator 😁👍
As for the glue I use, it has changed. I was using a 3M spry glue but I now print all of my work on lable paper and cut it out, it's basically a sticker. You can also use super glue. I know that sounds like a bit of over kill but it works and you just burn it off when you are done. I have some newer videos showing how I do this.
very informative!
I know this is an old video but I'm finding the chart a little confusing so I have a few questions. Firstly, I wish to cut 0.5mm and, 0.75mm brass sheet, and 0.5mm and 0.8mm thickness G10, can you tell me what blade sizes you would recommend?
Secondly, I've seen blades that look like the one in your illustration which are similar to a coping saw blade and also a spiral blade. What are the spiral blades for?
And help is much appreciated thank you.
Where did you purchase the rubber grinding stone for the dremel with the different steps?
عاش
Great tutorial! Thank you! Any reason why gluing a paper design is better than just drawing onto the metal (assuming one can draw the design accurately by free-hand)?
+Sheri Lynn Thank you. You can do it free hand. I did that for a long time but when you are trying to make a perfect shape, I find it a lot easier to use the printed design.
Ok, that makes sense- I thought there might be a benefit to sawing when the paper template is attached! I too will use paper- my drawing skills are limited beyond basic shapes! Sincere thanks for responding so quickly! Again, excellent tutorial- rather coincidental- just yesterday I made a hammered musical staff out of heavy gauge Argentium wire- I never thought to attempt it with sheet metal and saw- it would have been better! You opened my eyes and reduced my apprehension of the Jeweler's Saw!!! In spite of my other metalsmithing skills- I tend to find ways to avoid my saw when possible- I came out here with the intention of pushing myself to 'get over it' and your video helped! Your precision is beautiful! I subscribed!!!
+Sheri Lynn
I try to get back to all of my comments asap.
I like to use the saw more the any other cutting tool, that is if I can. I feel I get cleaner cuts with little to no burrs.
I'm happy to hear that I helped. It does take some time to get good with it, and you will brake a lot of blades. =)
Thank you for subscribing =)
Do you happen to have any suggestions on what you would like to see next?
@@GomeowCreations any websites to find jewelry designs to print ?
Honestly not really, I just make all my designs myself. I do have some templates for sale that will hall with this and some simple shapes bit.ly/GomeowCreationsProductPage
Thanks for the tutorial. I am trying hard to master sawing. I didn't catch what you lubricate your saw blade with.
In this video I used some cooking oil but now I only use this amzn.to/2qkP9nA or you can use bee's wax amzn.to/2uYBrMy
It takes a lot of practice to get good at using the saw. One thing that helped me a lot was getting good quality blades.
ebay.to/2qi0VzM
Thanks for the link. I needed someone to tell me what brand to get.
Just use a white wax candle, they work better than bees wax (not the translucent paraffin ones, those are awful).
👌
i use bee wax and chalk on my blades, never oil, its like oiling files, i think anyway, this is how i feel tho, should i use oil? or am i good with how i am doing, been doing this years tho, thanx for a nice vid.
Bees wax works perfectly. I only used oil due to it being the only thing a had at the time. I made a updated video about this here ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
will see you there =].
Great demonstration , do you think it could be possible to cut 6mm (1/4inch) aluminium with it ?
Yes but not very much of it and it's going to take some time and blades.
One more comment. I think it's integral to have that block you're cutting on I was cutting downwards, off the edge of a table. Where do you get that thing?
Notorious Lee I haven't seen them in stores, but you can get blocks on many places online for pretty cheap. I bought a set of 200 blades, a saw, and a cutting block on amazon for 16 bucks.
Hi... is brass similar to silver in terms of how it cuts and solders? Silver is very expensive to learn on so I was thinking of practicing with brass. Thanks again!
Yep you can use that or even copper
What kind of adhesive do you use to glue paper designs to metal? (I've tried a glue stick and it doesn't work very well.)
This is what I used amzn.to/2ULOIDp before I started using label paper but it uses a label printer but I found this and it might work with your normal printer amzn.to/39vwavB
Can you use any type of oil for the blade? Also, Is it important to use wax/ oil before sawing? I am currently attending a workshop and my teacher told me not to use wax before sawing.. I just want another opinion about it.
I wouldn't use oil like this if you can. I only did it because I didn't have anything else in hand and it did work. Use wax or cut lube on the blade. Check out this video I made that is much better all about the saw. I use cut lube before a saw and as I saw depending on how much I have to cut. You can feel and hear it when it needs more lube. ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
What glue does you use to adhere your template to the metal? I tried crazy glue but had a hard time removing it. I ended up scratching my piece up
You can use a normal glue stick but super glue does work really well to. Also to get it off you can just use a torch and burn it off.
Do you have any video talk about the drill bits sizes and how to choose them?
Nope not yet just I just ordered some and throw out some really bad quality ones. I might be able to do some kind of video about drill bits.
GomeowCreations awesome! There really isn’t many helpful videos out talk about drill bits especially fits for jewelry making. Can’t wait for it!
I will think about it and yeah when it comes to drill bits, there are a lot of crappy ones on the market.
Do you find a handheld drill works better than a flexshaft? I ask because I find it is slow going with the flexshaft and I go through a lot of drill bits. Aargh!
Well I kinda have the best of both worlds now with some supper sharp drill bits for the flex shaft so I done use the drill at all for drilling holes now. Haha
Hello. The big saw in the video is of 6"? Thank´s!
Hello, the bigger saw that I use is 8" and it uses 5" saw blades. If you can get a saw like this and learn how to use it, you will never want to use the smaller saw =)
Nice! I will buy the 8" saw. Thank´s!
This is an old video but when adding a new blade do not adjust the height of the saw blade. Lightly push the saw against your table and then put the blade in. It will then pull the blade tight.
Where on your website do I find the chart of blade sizes?
You can find it here
www.gomeowcreations.com/blog/2018/7/21/how-to-use-a-jewelers-saw-for-beginners-to-intermediate-trick-and-tips
can beeswack be used as a lube? also how could I tell appart which blade? I ordered a saw like your smaller one off amazon but the blades arent labeled. I was cutting 3/16 brass and the blades kept getting loose even if I really tighten the saw or even the blades would break. thanks!
Yes you can use bees wax as a blade lube. There is a way to tell what blade you have by counting the teeth in a given area but I don't know exactly how to do it without looking it up. Check out this video I made about jeweler saws, it might help you out ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
@@GomeowCreations awesome! Thanks man!
💯👍👍
👍
Its posible cut the metal the same way with a laser machine 30 -50 w?
I don't think so. You need something stronger.
Can you cut very thin .012 to .018 (30 to 26 gauge) stainless steel sheet this way? Perhaps with a specific blade?
Did you end up finding the answer to this? Need to know how I can do the same
What is the wood base held in place with?
That is an anvil bench pin.
So first you drill a small hole and then saw the hole . I didn't understand that part. What line are you following once you drilled the hole?
Sorry that the video isn't that clear but the paper that I have on the metal has line work printed on it.
Recently purchased a jewelers saw and blade set blades look like several wrapped in wire. Are these bundles separate blades or the bundle as a whole the blade?
You need to take that wire off, it's just to hold the bundle of blades together
@@GomeowCreations thank you, I appreciate the information. Just out of curiosity would these blades also work in a scroll saw? Recently inherited a scroll saw and the blades look similar.
I'm trying to finish a project my father started before he passed to honor his memory. He began cutting a pattern into a handbag blade. Because it is steel what size blade would you suggest. I believe he was doing this to save as a pattern to make these out of wood.
what size of blade did you used?? i tried to used coping saw for names but its worse.. i really want that jewelers saw and that size of blade.
Zy Ceniza did he help u with what size blade u need? 🤔 best thing to do is get a mix PAck of sized from 6/0- 8 or something like that. 6/0 being super tiny with lots of teeth and 8 being for thicker stuff.. An other reason to buy loads of blades, Ie a multi pack is bcoz u will break tonne of them haha even after years of experience 😉 hope I helped u out a little bit.. And this guy didn't demonstrate properly how to put in a blade u are mention to tension the same frame by pushing it again the bench and then clamping down the blade then release the tension and boom, u have a blade as tight as a guitar sting that u will here a high ping from when u pluck it.,
Don't buy cheap blades just so you have blades, Invest in better blades and they will break far less than the cheaper ones. I know from experience.
You are 100%right and I hav a better video about this topic ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
Are the blade is the same to cut wood and metal or cooper?
The blades that I use can cut metal and wood.
@@GomeowCreations thanks
if I don't have Bee's wax, what kind of lubrication can I use for the say blades?
You can get something called cut lube or is you really can find anything just go and get some very cheap wax candles 😄👍
@@GomeowCreations Thanks alot. I was thinking about that. Just was scared wether or not I should use it haha.
You can also use machine oil if that is easier to get.
7:05 You can't just ...
I can't just move at super speed, I know that. What else is it that I can't just?
I have no idea, this video was the 2nd video I ever made years ago. Check this one out, it's much better ua-cam.com/video/tBxRPVAwQrw/v-deo.html
Hi, I have a question for you: I have a 1:18 diecast Chevy Caprice and I wanna cut the back pillar windows from quadrilateral to triangular, is this the tool I should use for that?
Can you send me some pictures of what you are talking about to my email gomeowcreations@gmail.com
@@GomeowCreations I just sent you a few flicks.
This saw might not work for that. If you just want the window cute out you would have the drill a hole in it and feed the saw blade into it and attach it to the saw again... I think this will just hit on the over side of the car.
@@GomeowCreations Okay. Do you think a dremal saw would work?
@@MagneticPizzazz dremel will most probably work
Is it cutting on the downstroke? Have ever used a scrollsaw?
Yes it is and no I haven't.
GomeowCreations...i see. Reason i ask is im just starting out, i see most doing it by hand, but their are a select few that do.. Oh btw.. I like how you provided the gauge chart! I thought i was gonna have to do guess work? But i will probably do like you and just goes with what feels good!...
I really only use one blade size, #2/0 but you will fine what feel good for what your are working on.
GomeowCreations ..thank you sir!
OIl instead od wax?
Haha yeah, I remade this video here. ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html
Will it fit through metal
what do you mean?
What oil did you say you use?
I was using normal cooking olive oil in this video but it makes a mess over time so I don't suggest using it. You can use wax to do the same thing or cut lube like this one amzn.to/2MAzJuC this is what I use now.
Where can I get the saw
Here are some options for you.
3in saw frame amzn.to/2DaD2SG
8in saw frame amzn.to/2qeF5g3
Saw blades amzn.to/2Ocl03v
Hy, does that saw can Cut 18 g Stainles Steel 304 ???
+Pedro Servia I have used it to cut stainless steel but you have to make sure you have the right blades to do it.
GomeowCreations where I can buy the saw and the bladea good quality for Stainless Steel Cutting Im from Puerto Rico ...
+Pedro Servia look for a jeweler saw and diamond saw blades might work. You will have to check a jewelry supply store or order them online.
hello where to buy that kind of blades??
These are the blades that I use, www.ebay.com/itm/JEWELERS-SAW-BLADES-FLASH-2-0-144-PIECE-SWISS-MADE-SUPERIOR-TO-PIKE-SAW-BLADE-/280570008337?hash=item4153469311:m:macgwfNH8fNWArtaySxEQlg
Zy Ceniza Amazon
Will this cut 18 gauge sterling silver?
Yeah, all day haha just make sure to use the right saw blade 😊👍
GomeowCreations thanks!
Why would a blade not cut strait? I've seen people with this problem. Also I've heard that bending the saw itself to stress the blade is the "proper" way to set a blade on a Jewelers saw...what's your take on that
+Greyson Ciganer I have had problems with blades not cutting straight. This was when ai was using low quality blades. After looking them over you can see that the blade itself was bent. After using high quality blades this probem had gone away.
The proper way to us the saw is to keep it straight and move the part around it. I have found that moving both can be very helpful for detailed work. It all really comes down to what will work for you.
what music note is that?
treble clef
The chart convertion factor it's wrong! 1" = 25,4 mm so: 0,01" = 0.254 mm (i recomend you to use mm when you work with tiny values). May i give you another advice? Zoom in a little bit when you show how to put the saw blade 😉.
PS: sorry for me shitty english
You are ring and this video is really not the best, I did make another one that I think is better ua-cam.com/video/aR5iN9Qmw7c/v-deo.html 😉
Do you make necklaces
Yeah, I make all kinds of things. Check out some of my other videos 😁👍
Show that how can design on paper name style pandet
What do you mean?
It is a "treble clef" music symbol. You can Google it and find pictures.
I would rather somebody tell me or show us how jewellers saw blades are made?
(خير)
"You cant just" *PLAYS MUSIC*
Me: just what man, FINISH YOUR SENTENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!
+hunter the smart at what time in the video did this happen?
At 7:09
He never to mention what saw blade what size
2/0 or 3/0
how to make 3D shapes!
+Isa Alardi you can hammer on the flat shapes to give them a 3d look, or you would have to do lost wax or foam casting to make fully 3d items.
I'm ordering one from Amazon so I can fix my Night Rider bike light see they want me to ship it back to the company is easy to make a perfect cut they put it in a metal Dome no screws you have to cut it this is how they make money I guess outsmart them I will glue it back with some Sarah clone
Wait so this saw clamps the blade
What do you mean?
@@GomeowCreations I mean the saws I've used usually have a hole or piec of rod that hooks the blade but this type of saw just uses good ol friction and compression
It's just a bit odd to me
This is normal for the saws that I have used for jewelry work. I have a saw like this that has the setup you are talking about bit that is for wood and much thicker metals and steel.
Check out this video I might also help with this kind of saw ua-cam.com/video/tBxRPVAwQrw/v-deo.html
@@GomeowCreations that's alot of equipment what is ur job

So the chart at the beginning is _very_ important... but you don't use it _and_ you don't really explain it much! Okay I'm ready to go! lol
Yeah. I do things wrong but they work for me 😊👍. The chart tells you what size saw blade to use on different thickness of metal. For the most part 2/0 and 3/0 on everything and the metal thickness I normally use are 0.6mm to 2mm.

That's not a very tight blade and not how u should be showing people, u are ment to push/flex the frame again you bench adding tension them clamp down the blade and when u release the tension your have a proper tight blade like a guitar string that will ring high when plucked! Yours was far too loose, yes it will cut. But it's not a good was to show people who may only be starting our ✌
Haha well you're not wrong. This was one of my first video on this channel and was posted years ago. I have made an updated video about this due to this being a poor video. I would take this video down but it happens to be a good video for people to find my channel seeing that it's number one in the search for how to use this saw. I do try and direct people to my better videos and I might be able to edit this video now that UA-cam has updated. 😅
GomeowCreations haha I'm sorry it was actually only after my comment I realized who u were and that iv seen heaps of your videos and your rings 😂 and I love your channel so I felt a little guilty after I realized that coz I know u know your stuff and do great work I my apologies for that that little faux pas lol. No hard feelings, I'm fairly new to jewelry Makin myself and Iv learned alot of tips from watching your vids over the years so thank you for that and sorry if I seemed like a Mr. Know-it-all 😂 ✌
It's all good and thank for looking out 😊 👍
Don't you think you should be wearing gloves
Gloves? What are those? Haha
I guess you can use some cut gloves or leather ones if you are reallyworried about cutting yourself but they might restrict your movement and get in the way. If your careful and take it slow you should be fine. 😁👍
