Omfg!!! I litterally had no idea this existed!!! You have opened up a whole new world for me!!! Thank you so much!!! My goodness! I can make my gemstone rings the way I want it! Amazing!!!
Check out my other video tutorials on the Fire Mountain Gems and Beads channel for polymer, metal and epoxy clays, resin and more! FMG is a leader in creative education with their innovative TV studio and I'm so honored to be among the many talented artists and designers they feature in bringing you creative inspiration!
Thank you. 1st video that wasn't creating a thin pendant pcs & flat bands. IE; 1.5mm thick etc. I've never used this before. Always drawn or poured silver. want to create a few shoulder components for a grad ring'. watching all the other vids found myself wondering if I had made an error. I did some research prior as to soldering PMC etc. off to give it a go. Thanks again.
Metal Clay is a great medium that gives you a ton of flexibility to create different things. We are so glad you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching and best of luck with your creations!

I appreciate videos like these, beautiful ideas with clear instructions! I want to start making jewelry with metal clay but I heard some people say it’s weak and breaks easily. I don’t see how since the metals are heated up at the end. Is this true??
It will last almost indefinitely as long as it is sealed with the cap on when not in use. It's always good to check before use to make sure it is still in a workable state.
A new word for the dictionary: "Quelching"? Did we we mean quenching? Just checking. great video, I love to learn new words! Is that like laxidazy? Google says" "Quelch appears in unabridged dictionaries, but it has never been a well-established or widely used word."
I have watched this twice now and although I have everything needed I still have never fired up my kiln (apprehension I guess). I am wondering if there might be a metal clay teacher in the Reno, Nevada area that you might know of (or anyone out there reading this)?
I'm looking to start with art clay silver as I'm wanting to make some jewellery designs. I have a question about stone setting? Could I embed collets into the clay and fire the piece with a blowtorch, or would I have to use a kiln? Also... Can I use sand to texturise the ring surface, or is there a tool I could use to simulate this effect?
Hi there. We're not sure what you mean by embedding collets into the clay. Collets are used to hold a drill bit. Sand blasting is often used on metal after firing to create a textured look.
@@FireMountainGems sorry, only just saw that I got auto corrected. It should have been claw setting, for mounting stones in after firing? The sand was an idea for a patternation across the surface of the metal when the clay is workable, then fire it ?
Hi Luis. We're not sure if Lisa Pavelka has any upcoming classes. We would suggest searching her online for any upcoming classes that might be available.
Good video but the ring you put on at the end was not the ring you where just working on Lol 😂. The ring you tried on was a ring with a stone and the ring that you had been working on the whole time did not have a stone
Totally. The video is more about how to make a metal clay border mold ring. The stone is a flatback crystal glued onto one of the circular impressions of the mold after the ring has been fired.
Haha, yeah, someone else alerted us to that. Lisa just misspoke which sometimes happens when you're in front of a camera filming. You are correct, she meant to say "quenching".
My gosh, so much irrelevant talking, examples, and analogies! This video has more blah blah blah than actual useful information. This video should be half the time of it. Also, no one is doing clay projects wearing stuff and hair style like they are ready to go out for dinner but stopped before leaving house to tape a video.
