    Video Description:
    I repeat, they smashed THEIR OWN wedding ring with a hammer. This is not my wedding ring. I did not smash it. I un-smashed it. That's what goldsmiths do. They un-smash things. This could have been a lot worse, but thankfully the ring was solid 14K white gold with no stones. Gold in general is very malleable so I knew we would be able to restore it!

      A bit of TP trivia: I have a print of the original patent for toilet paper that was about 1891. The patent shows the toilet paper hanging the way that we like it. So people who do the opposite are clueless. JMHO. 😁

      Right?? I’m fascinated and mesmerized, but at the same time lost and confused. I wish I knew what that ring hot tub was and why he puts them in there, or what the electric hand dryer/steamer for the ring did. I also hope he finds a client that doesn’t mind being filmed and shows their reaction after he fixes their ring!

    • @Beanasaurus
      @Beanasaurus 3 роки тому +4

      Okay so after binge watching random videos of his, I found one where he explains a lot! The video is called “I turned a family heirloom into...” and I think the rest of the title is “a ring” or engagement ring or something.
