my name is Jordan and I am a goldsmith. In this video I go over all my thoughts and feelings on the Sitmatic jewelers bench chair. The new euro compass ring design that I made, as well as other random thoughts about fall and hallmark Christmas movies. - Навчання та стиль
Best tip i can give: Dont try to save on stuff thats going to be between you and the floor. So stuff like chairs, couches and mattresses, but also shoes/boots (also insoles!), motorcycle gear and a bunch more.
Before covid i would go to school every day, since march 2020 i've spend a lot of time behind my desk instead. I decided to spend more than i usually would and got a proper gaming chair. I can sit comfortabely in that for hours, something which i definitly couldnt do in my old chair.
Same with shoes, i first would buy cheaper shoes which would last me about a year. 3 years ago i bought some proper Lowa shoes which were more expensive, but have already saved me money in the long run (1x€180 vs 3x~€60/70). And on top of that they are more comfortable and have gore-tex, so no more wet feet for me.
Believe me, dont go cheap on that stuff. Of course not everyone is able to afford it, but if you can, please dont buy cheap.
No pressure my guy. Don't burn yourself out. Randoms on the internet aren't worth it. Work at a pace that feels good for you
Unrelated, but I passionately hate Christmas. So like, I feel like I'm set, hook me up Hallmark. Make. My. Day.
I love the euro compass ring, it’s gorgeous.
I also love the reaction to the Travis Barker ring “It’s big and it’s celebrity” made me giggle
That's a beautiful ring design! Also: I've had that chair for a few years now, and I don't know how I lived without it. Whenever I leave the bench and go to the CAD office (it has a regular chair) my back is hurting within about half an hour. But I can easily spend the whole day on the bench without issue.
Hey! Good to hear/see from you again. Interestingly, they filmed one of those Hallmark Christmas films in our little town recently. It’s true, there’s true love in humdrum little towns.....:)
I only discovered you a week or so ago and have been binging my way through your videos. I find jewellery making so fascinating and your voice is so calming too. It's nice that you take a little social media detox but lovely that you're back and looking forward to further videos.
Thanks for the kind words! Happy you found my channel
Been checking out your videos and was quite happy to see you walking in my old home town! Cheers
You’re wrong about the Hallmark Christmas movies. Only about 50% are about the city girl stuck in a small town. The other 50% are either another Santa’s son or daughter falling in love or an angel trying to get her wings but falls in love instead. There’s also the ones with royalty or my personal favorite was one about a medieval knight who travels through time to modern day Christmas and ends up falling in love. Watching Terrible Christmas movies are my favorite way to celebrate the holidays.
i read "satan's son or daughter" and boy, did that change the plot
Your space looks so good! Might seem a weird comment but a few vids back you said you struggled to get it organised and now it's really nice!
It is such a gorgeous ring, I love it, both the previous and new version! I hope I'll be able to order one for myself one day!
Love it and Karlie Kardashian too😄 So happy for this video! Halloween is the best! We're going as Princess Buttercup and The Dread Pirate Roberts because, we need ALLLLLLL the candy! Enjoy!
Can’t wait to watch California Christmas.
Dude. I am getting the biggest kick out of watching your background through Petaluma. Andresen’s! Awesome.
I am totally in love with your European cut compass rings, they are gorgeous. Do you have a video on what that stone is compared to a diamond or a cubic zirconia?
Have enjoyed all your videos. Just keep on being you :)
The new workspace is looking stunning!!! Always glad to see you pop up in my subscriptions
I love the videos you make
That just happened yesterday to my back wow 😯 thought it was me
Hey dude, this is something NO one talks about or I even thought of when I got this job as a beginner. I'm not gonna make work pay for a 800 dollar chair. Would love some other suggestions for chairs that around 300-500. I started this last year and got lucky but I went from a job being active to now I sit all day and I messed up my rotator cuff in my shoulder. Better now but I consistently have neck and shoulder issues and my back. Anyway nice video and this is extremely important. I feel like I'm 70 years old now i don't want to be the hunchback of Notre dame when im old.
OMG YOU USE STULLER TOO??! I went to their convention two years ago
That ring is gourgous!
The Hallmark plot 🤣💯
Thank you!
Thank for the video, Always happy t get some news from you Mr. ModernGoldsmith. But way=a=min, this is a video from back October last year, ha haaaa... never mind I guess I wanted to watch a video of yours ; )) todledooo til the next one ; )
❤
consider paying an editor if you can? might make it less stressful!
Hey! Thanks for the update! Just take your time your videos are always appreciated ^^
For Halloween?! I’ll be a Pikachu 😂 I work with homeless families and all the kids this year love Pokémons, so I’ll bring them a bit if a spark of joy and laughter on Halloween 👻 :) (and yes of course I’ll bring candies and popcorn for them too)
❤️❤️❤️✌️
Some oldtimer told me that you should not cheap out on work boots and you mattress.....there are the things where you spend the most time in your life
Could I email you or ask you some questions on here? I also am not on social media and starting a new business with jewlery on the side. I've been making rings from sterling silver and some reclaimed gold I have from computers, around 270 grams so I was wondering if you've or anyone on here has had experience with reclaimed gold. I've been doing tons of reading. Just trying to get some advice from someone I look up to with this stuff, but I plan to take some classes or schooling because I'm having a hard time finding information. Like simple stuff about fluxing and I can't get solder to stick, I ruined a rose gold ring last night with my torch because the solder wouldn't flow or stick. At 5:40 I feel ya. Good luck with everything if you see this and keep your head held high and know you're creating things that will be around potentially forever that bring a bit of joy and wonder to peoples hearts. Thanks everybody
bahaha ooh those cheesy, cheesy movies. i saw one where renee zellweger fell in love with harry connick jr and they saved a pudding factory from closing down :D
your workshop looks so cozy, comfortable and just awesome all around - congratulations!! and the updated ring is super pretty
Frida Kahlo from Coco ☺️

I stopped seeing his videos on my recommendations, wondering maybe he was o hiatus. It turns out it was just the awful youtube algorithm. No wonder he's not getting good views anymore 🙄.
Btw, Love your videos!!
BUT TRAVIS BARKER!!!
