From what I could see, I really like this project. Your explanations are very clear and well thought out. I agree with other comments about the distance from the camera and the difficulty with seeing detail. Even if you don't get around to another full video of this, could you put up a few close up photos of the most important steps? That would be enough to round out the video. Thanks and congrats from a new subscriber!
Thank you so much for making this video! You are one of my favorite artists and you just so happen to also make the most legit tutorials! Thank you again and please don't quit!
Thanks for watching! I'm aiming to have a new video every week, this week was thrown off a bit by me getting ready to move, but things should be back on schedule next week!
You are one of the first artists I drooled over 5 yrs ago!! I clicked on this from wwtt without realizing u are raftark!! Lol. Now I am fan-girling!! ♡♡♡♡ I love your work
I'm loving your videos. Please keep them coming. I would love to see them progress into a video on making some pendants and rings. Thanks for your time & efforts.
@@gbridger9177 Thank you! I have done one ring tutorial so far and have plans for a more advanced one in the works. For now I plan on focusing more on individual techniques and settings for pendants than actual pendant walk-throughs. I may put together a walk-through at some point though!
Was also thinking, why can’t the camera show the screen bigger? For us to see it’s better...the work you showing us need more lighter or bring the camera closer. But I love how patient you are with us.. and explaining us the right way to make it’s like like the one you showing us..we love your work...just the camera too far for us an screen it small. Thank you it’s a beautiful work you making.. thank you 😊
Thanks so much for the tutorial, I can't quite tell what way you insert the two half round wires into the larger outside round wires, do you insert the half round wires with both flat sides touching so they are flush together, or was one more on top?
As, I know I've said before , I love all your videos. Your wire work and your incredible ability to articulate what you are doing are amazing. I do have a question about the weave setting. Will this setting work with small cabs? Would you modify anything to do it with cabs? Thank you!
It will definitely work for smaller cabs or faceted stones. The smallest I have tried was with 1mm faceted or 2mm cabs, but if you are adventurous enough I'm sure it could be done with smaller! I would size down your wires a bit for anything much smaller, maybe 20 or 22g half round with 30g weaving if the stones are exceptionally small. try a few different combos and see what works best for you!
It can definitely be done with larger or smaller wires to accommodate larger or smaller stones. I would go down a size or two for anything smaller that 2mm and a size up for larger than 4mm
Great. New sub. I would recommend for more subscribers 1) put on first picture close look off wawe you have done so we can see closely how it look at the end
Thank you for the amazing videos. I've been looking for something like this for a long time. I look forward to seeing future videos! Id also like to ask where do you get all of your stones from??
These are filmed on my cell phone, so there is some limit to what I have the ability to do with them. I did pick up a macro lens so i will be able to do high detail close ups in future videos! All of these videos are much more viewer friendly on a cell phone than on a computer screen, it counter acts the goofy framing a bit. I will try filming in landscape mod for future videos!
I liked the video and would like to see more of your work, but it was a bit out of focus,and too far from the camera. Also instead of using such a dark background maybe use a lighter one, that may help in seeing what your doing better.😊
There is a limit to what the camera on my phone can do, but I will try a new setting for the next one! I picked up a macro lens so at the very least I will be able to provide some in focus close ups next time. I appreciate the feedback!
Of course! I use the half round wires because I find it to work better for me. The lower profile of the wire on top of the stones helps make the setting secure without covering too much of the stone. That being said, this technique is totally do able with square or round wires as well!
Here is a written tutorial another artist put together that covers a very similar technique: www.etsy.com/listing/635879680/deco-pendant-wire-wrapped-tutorial-very?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=wire+wrap+tutorial&ref=sr_gallery-1-32&organic_search_click=1

Securing the crossed 18g wires before adding the stone is a much better technique than I've been taught. TY!!
It works for me! I'm glad this was helpful!!

Perfect tutorial compared to some others who tried to teach this which I could never get or understand. So many thanks.
This is great to hear! I'm glad it is helpful, thank you for watching!
Very helpful and awesome and you have the perfect teacher voice!
Thank you! I think my voice sounds really silly in a recording, but I am glad it has been helpful!

Your videos are excellent!! I’ve learned so much from watching! Thank you!
Thank you! I appreciate you checking them out!
Very good tutorial! ❤️❤️👍
thank you!
I loved this. I'm already thinking about what I can do .
im glad it was helpful! excited to hear how it goes :)
Ooooooh neat! The clamp is a great idea. I'll have to try it. Thx!
Love your work❣️ You need to make more videos😉💙💛💚❣️

@@RaftarkJewelry Thank you!!!!
Good video. Would you use this technique & the same size wires for smaller or larger stones?
It can definitely be done with larger or smaller wires to accommodate larger or smaller stones. I would go down a size or two for anything smaller that 2mm and a size up for larger than 4mm
@@RaftarkJewelry Thank-you for the quick and complete answer,
Great. New sub.
I would recommend for more subscribers
1) put on first picture close look off wawe you have done so we can see closely how it look at the end
Thanks for watching! I am new to making videos of any kind, this feedback is helpful! I will make sure to do so in the future
I love your videos so much!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for the amazing videos. I've been looking for something like this for a long time. I look forward to seeing future videos!
Id also like to ask where do you get all of your stones from??
Thanks for the video!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you. Very good
Are the flat sides facing down or both wires' flat side facing the stone?
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Please redo the video using wide screen setting. And have the camera view closeup so we can see the fine detail. Great instruction. Thanks
These are filmed on my cell phone, so there is some limit to what I have the ability to do with them. I did pick up a macro lens so i will be able to do high detail close ups in future videos!
All of these videos are much more viewer friendly on a cell phone than on a computer screen, it counter acts the goofy framing a bit. I will try filming in landscape mod for future videos!
I enjoyed this video. Thank you. I just wish there were more close ups to actually see what you instructed.
I liked the video and would like to see more of your work, but it was a bit out of focus,and too far from the camera. Also instead of using such a dark background maybe use a lighter one, that may help in seeing what your doing better.😊

Hi. Would you please recreate this tutorial? Too much is off camera and I'm lost. Maybe a sketch? Thank you for your generosity
Can you do this with round wire?
Of course! I use the half round wires because I find it to work better for me. The lower profile of the wire on top of the stones helps make the setting secure without covering too much of the stone. That being said, this technique is totally do able with square or round wires as well!
I would like to try this but was not able to see what you were doing. Please add a few ciose-ups. Thanks
Can you redo this tutorial using your new setup? This is hard to see. Thx
It’s on my eventual to-do list :)
Could you please upload written weave instructions for this piece. I would love to be able to use your technique.
Here is a written tutorial another artist put together that covers a very similar technique:

At times close ups of this would be helpful.
I picked up a macro lens for my phone (these videos are all filmed on my phone for now) so in the future i will be able to do more close ups!
Why not turn your phone so you're in "landscape" mode, we could all see better, thank you.
Thank you for the amazing videos. I've been looking for something like this for a long time. I look forward to seeing future videos!
