    Hey everyone,
    Welcome back to the channel! In today's special video, I take you through the exciting journey of creating a beautiful engagement ring for my girlfriend of seven years. It's a true labor of love. Using my trusty gold wire roller from the last video, I forged this ring from white gold and combined it with a dazzling 0.7ct brown diamond. 🌟💍
    ✨ In This Video:
    This isn't just any ring; it's a labor of love crafted with precision and dedication. I wanted to make the engagement ring on my own, to show my dedication for this relationship.
    Whether you're into vintage machines, goldsmithing, or simply love beautiful jewelry, this video has something for everyone. I'll take you step-by-step through the creation process, highlighting the intricate techniques and tools involved.
    Restoration Videos & Vintage Machines: See how I utilize my restored and antique machines and tools.
    Goldsmith Tools in Action: Watch the gold wire roller transform white gold into the base of the ring.
    Prong Setting Tutorial: Learn how to securely set a diamond using prong settings.
    Forging Rings of Power: Witness the entire ring-making process, from gold melting to final touches.

    She was so happy when she showed me the ring, it is such an original master piece!!! 😭😭
    She really is so beautiful inside out and one of the best people I've ever met!! I can't wait for us to have dinner altogether - now that I kept watching your videos I'll be fan-girling you, lol!! 😂
    Everything she told me about you in the past years was always so positive, that I was never worried she found the right fit - I love that I was able to watch her ring being forged!! 🥲❤ Thanks for sharing that video with us!
    This is a bit like the beautiful love version of the ring forged in LOTR 😂
    Instead of making her invisible wearing the ring, you only have eyes for her 🤣
    Instead of feeding dark power wearing it, it's feeding the power of love, the reminder how much you love her and your commitment of wanting to spend your life with her 😍
    Wearing the ring connects her to you (that was also the case for Sauron's ring, but here it's not in a controlling way but romantic! 😂❤)!
    Sorry for the LOTR comparisons, that and this video were just the only two times in my life I have seen a ring being forged 😅😅
    All the best to you two!!! ❤❤❤🎉

    Didn't think you could outdo the purple KitchenAid mixer but obviously you have!

    You've just made the most valuable thing she will ever own. (I'll bet that you really needed that beer after all that stress!) Beautiful design, beautiful work, and I have to add: amazing videography as well! Macro shooting is NOT easy! Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials! ❤
