    Hopefully everybody is now done sniping. I think this is inspiring and it has motivated me to try some things.. I also think you are very brave posting this for all of us to learn from...and evidently to get poked at for your efforts. If you used mechanized processes and it was perfect...you would merely have different snipers. I am grateful that these techniques are within my grasp so I feel comfortable making the effort. Thanks!

      If all the parts are shaped precisely, I'd try to solder parts together before putting them in.

    • @nicolagregson6054
      @nicolagregson6054 9 років тому +16

      onpsxmember I don't think that would work as soldering is a messy job.

    • @onpsxmember
      @onpsxmember 9 років тому +1

      Of course you solder it outside. Soldering copper is also called hard-soldering because you need higher temperatures to do it. You can do it pretty accurate and have some sanding/polishing to do.

    • @nicolagregson6054
      @nicolagregson6054 9 років тому +17

      onpsxmember yes but on a piece like that with extremely fine lines would leave no room for error, you'd also run the risk of scorching the wood with the soldering iron, totally ruining it. I'd say it would be a better idea to ensure the wire inlays meet up perfectly before setting them.

    I did my first copper wire inlay to a piece of black walnut and it came out pretty good. I do understand the gaps in the copper wire inlay. when you sand the piece of wood you have to be careful or you will sand the wire to thin in places and it will break off and there you have the gaps. I used 18 gauge copper wire that I purchased at Home Depot and I flattened the wire with a Pepe Tools rolling mill.

    • @ingridsaab5413
      @ingridsaab5413 8 років тому +2

      whay kind of pen does he use to make the groove? Also you were concerned abouy the gaps. when you have a gap you can fill it all the way with copper powder and then add super glue and sand it. The powder blends in and looks like solid copper

    • @friggetyfuck
      @friggetyfuck 8 років тому +7

      There is a distinct lack of attention to detail here though. I can't imagine an incredible artist making beautiful inlays a hundred years ago would use crazy glue to hold it together, and leave gaps all over the place. It's teaching bad practice.

    Very beautiful. What a level of Elegance. Idea..... make some wall sconces with this wire inlay as a circle just behind a candles flame. Several circles stacked one on top of the other or a narrow width strip running top to bottom setting behind the candle. Tea cup candles would work well because they typically burn in place. I really enjoyed this video. Very nicely done to include the music.

    Nice technique! I make my own metal inlay using a huge wood panel and brass&aluminum bars. It took me almost 30 days to do it. Wire inlay it s quite simple but working with metal bars it can be tricky. Anyway, the final result it's outstanding.

    @kenthartland8581 7 років тому +4

    1. Sand it with an orbital or face down on a stationary sanding sheet backed with flat level sheet of plexiglas or cement board.
    2. Coat it with clear epoxy resin, like for a bar top, instead of Tung oil. Epoxy will leave a smooth finish, not the rough and snaggy one.
    I also am interested in Neil Bradley's suggestion to use a metal hammer but you'd want to experiment first to see how that works out. You want to be careful not leave elephant feet marks in the wood from the hammer.
    Interesting video.

    • @ScooterFXRS
      @ScooterFXRS 2 роки тому +2

      While I too would have used a faster, flatter mechanical means of leveling off the inlay to the wood then finish sanding and polishing the inlay and wood.
      No, pure tung oil nor the manufactured "tung oil" wipe on is not going to do much for the inlay but is Not going to leave a "rough and snaggy" finish. You get that result you need to back up and redo your finish sanding. Epoxy, meh, it has it's place but over time and subjected to sunlight will yellow and turn opaque over time. Much better to use pure tung oil or even linseed oil then use a clear finish of your choice AFTER the oil has polymerized.
      Hammers; 90% of every guy I have come across thinks he is black smithing and beating carbon into steel. "Tippy, tap, tap" as AVE would say. This person used a urethane hammer to prevent deformation of the copper inlay and quite frankly is the wiser choice for as soft as cooper is.

    • @kenthartland8581
      @kenthartland8581 2 роки тому +1

      I know this thread is aging but I do want to say that while some resins may yellow over time, others won't. Do some research into epoxies, polyester and urethane (water and oil based) resins to get one that won't yellow. Generally, the longer the resin takes to harden, the tougher it is. Also understand it's UV resistance if that is a concern. But for this cool little wire inlay project, I doubt if yellowing or UV is a big deal. Like I said four years ago, neat project, great video and thanks for posting it.

  • @wildrangeringreen

    looks good, just a few gaps here and there (wouldn't look bad from 5 feet). Don't normally use glue with wire inlay like this, but I feel your "knife" was too wide for your wire. With wire, you essentially slit the wood, and wedge the wire in. The tension from the grain trying to spring back holds the wire in and once you oil up the wood, that inlay is held in there tight. That being said, at least on this wood, the glue didn't seem to discolor it once oil was applied, so it did work well, fast setting CA glue?

    I had a eureka moment. I ran 12 gauge wire through my hand cranked pasta machine. I started from the largest setting, and worked my way to the smallest. It was slightly thinner than a dime once I finished. The pasta machines are around 30 to 50 dollars. Picked mine up from Goodwill for a song. Now I will be on the lookout for an electric pasta machine.

      Can be solved by using an actual metal hammer to hammer the wire in, This may also make the use of glue unnecessary, tapping the wire into the crevice repeatedly will make it expand to fill gaps, which in turn will create a mechanical bond.
      They definitely did not make this as nice as they could have.

    @AnonEeMouse 5 років тому +2

    Gaps? Thanks for showing me what to avoid. I think the final cut would be with my Dremel or some other more precise cutting tool and made a little more carefully with ice cold frozen copper. With a little more careful cutting this should work out just fine.

    • @ScooterFXRS

    you seemed quite slap dash with the super glue... Surely the over ru dried in some of channels before you got around to laying the wire creating even more of an uneven channel?
    yeah ok its not perfect but i think this is more of a demonstration of concept video rather than an all out finished piece of work...
    good stuff.

    I'm doing a similar project on a wooden box, using makeshift tools .. a flat screwdriver and a normal hammer (stolen from daddy) .. for now is terrible lol
    What type of glue is that?

    What wonderful advice to apply super glue after inlaying the wire; if only it had worked. Following this video, I inlayed over 80 words, along with art deco corners, into walnut with flattened copper wire. Imagine how my surprise turned into rage as about half of my inlays kept on popping out when I started sanding. And, unlike your tutorial, my joints were tight and filled. Thank you for providing the worst advice I could have received for this technique. My fun project turned into a fucking nightmare, wasting both material and my time.

      Iwonder how you sanded it.. if you use a random orbital you will heat the brass and melt the glue.

    We do have plug in, mechanical type tools tools to help with that. That had to take days to sand.

    • @Hellsong89
      @Hellsong89 9 років тому +1

      bblakester69 It would take by hand around 10-15 minutes. With orbital sander 5 minutes. Copper is easy to sand as wood.

    Nicely done, always wondered how it was performed. Quick question... How do you stop the copper discoloration, can turn green in worst case scenario?

    • @ScooterFXRS
      @ScooterFXRS 2 роки тому +1

      By applying a varnish, lacquer, or urethane finish of your choice to the wood will prevent the oxidation of the copper, on the surface. That the use of cyanoacrylate glue was used, which usually is not recommended for wire inlay, could halt or slow this process below the surface.
