Creating a Walnut and Copper Bentwood Ring 

Btw i want to enter that drawing please

Christopher Cochran,. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE IS A WASTE TIME!!!

keepin me humble

Wow you got talent !!

Was he being... ironic? I do not understand this Christopher person.

Well... how did it go? Post us an imgur album or something!

John Techs rings done! I actually made three. Copper was a little intimidating and my skin is sensitive so I used a premade titanium core. I matched that with a titanium wire inlay. I didn’t do a great job with the UV resin on the first ring. The second one was perfect but I picked a core that was a little big. The third one is the winner. Unfortunately it’s sitting in my safe and I’m unmarried. With COVID, we delayed our wedding by a year. I’ll see if I can link up an image of the final ring in my google drive.

@@BlkHunterGatherer Thanks for the update! Im sorry to hear that your wedding was delayed. Ours was supposed to be a lot bigger but instead of delaying we downsized to only 20 guests. I'm interested because I'm getting married in about 10 days and I have already purchased all the tools to make my ring, I'm also using a pre-made titanium core, but I already had the lathe so I didn't have to buy a whole lot. I'd love to know more about your experience with the titanium wire if you care to share.

What a compliment. Congratulations on the wedding.

So, next month aight mate?

When I hear RU-vid's shitty free music loops in any video I click away instantly. I've seen people loop 8 second crappy RU-vid tracks for 45 minute videos. No one deserves that.

Then you find this and it’s a disappointment.

God, the algorithm’s so slow in dissipating hope & faith.

I heard about a guy that put his willy in the pickle slicer at work. He lost his wife when he was caught. But he's happy with the gal he met at work, her name is Jill, she's a wiz with a dill, LOL

@@Alwis-Haph-Rytte I knew a girl who worked in a butcher shop. One day she backed into the slicer, and got a little behind in her work.

@@dhy5342 LOL

@Robert Theref Could you please elaborate? Was dhy5342 right or wrong about what gives him the willies? Or is it the story about the coworker? I think he should know what gives him the willies and why. Are you just trolling?

@@Dorenda You're going to hate this factoid. They claim the average person eats in their sleep 5 spiders a year. About 30 years ago I had a pet tarantula. I let it walk across my face once. Goose bumps, LOL

totally, I of course make some more extravagant rings, but it is important to have variety.

thanks dude, you are the best!

Tempest Rings you are amazing! Wow! I have a lot of semi precious stones of all kind, I had (have) a jewellery business, and got sick... I checked Etsy, awesome rings. Would you consider someone sending you the stones even the inlays I have a lot. And pay for the difference? Would that be possible to make a custom ring like that? I am in Ontario Canada where are you situated?

You can still buy one!

Come again? He leaves alot out. Plus he added a trick designed to ruin and set people back with his "tips". 1. He intentionally left out why his Q Tip was turning black while he was polishing the inside. I of course know why that is and he also did it wrong by skipping the follow up step to that, thus his cooper is not mirror shiny. 2. When he verbally tells people to use a heat gun when cleaning up the excess it is a trick and it will melt the finshing line causing the entire ring to fall into the Alumi-UV. 3. He doesn't discuss grain orientation when cutting the veener strips. 4. He leaves out the wet sanding and buffing of the fishing string node. 5. He leaves out lathe speeds that could fling Alumi-UV back at people who don't know better. This is one of the most masterful jerk around tutorials I have ever watched.

thanks!

holy shit good idea!

+Tempest Rings Not my idea, but I'm happy to share the knowledge!!! Less chance of sanding through the clear. Just scrape flush and polish:) I enjoy your work and hit the sub button for ya. Keep Rocking it out Dude!!!

@ Rocker Pat, which direction with the blade? Like a wood scraper works well.

Yes I refinish rifle stocks and I use a razor blade to scrape out dents in the wood it works awesome I have been doing it that way for the last 25 years.

Love the look of that ring, must be expensive after that amt of work, would love to own one.

just from my experience with both products it would be about 5 coats of a thick CA, but AlumiUV isn't brittle like CA, making it much stronger.

Chris William yeah man when I read the title of the vid, i didn't realize he had a lathe...lol

lathes do make things easier!

No it just speeds it up. You can also use a very small file or knife to cut the groove

How much patience do have?

SonOfUlti , did you propose? 😊

Yeah man, keep us updated

i guess she said no :/

She mustve said no. Rip

Yeah, I think she said no.

Might be a little late but his website is in the description. ^_^

i got that same one on amazon "ring mandril"

it is literally just two UV nail polish curing lamps facing face to face lol 35 watts each

Tempest Rings Thanks for taking the time to answer I really appreciate it.

always a pleasure!

Sounds very sophisticated. LOL

I was wondering about the extra bulbs, simple setup

it just gave me a heart attack

When I make rings, it takes me about 3-4 hours.

Is that a ring master burn? That felt like a ring master burn.. Ok i dont know anything about this stuff but im just gonna say it. *BURN*!!!!! 👊👊👊 Also to channel: wow you have real talent man. Seriously. :) Dont lose a finger bro.

I thought the same thing. Danger Will Robinson, Danger.

Keara Martin. Precisely my thought when I saw him doing that, not the best thing to show, but yeah the craftsmanship in the end is nice.

PUSS

Keara Martin Stay away from power tools, you obviously have no clue how to work with you’re hands. He is an experienced craftsman and in no danger, loose clothing near the lathe will get you hurt badly he did not do that.

that is clever. never heard that one till today.

ya with the copper already being so soft it conducts off the heat very quickly anyway, and I don't need to increase workability a ton anyway. Mostly it stops the band from splitting if I stretch to aggressively.

Copper also work hardens so the annealing makes it easier to work. I've seen a couple of blacksmiths heat and quench their copper to work it.

most metals other than iron alloys anneal in quench like silver

As far as I understand it, it's the heating that actually softness the metal. It doesn't matter how it cools

Ltifone2014. Heating with a swift cooling aka quench hardens letting the metal slowly cool will not harden it

Same.
