DIY ring from a nut (with common tools) 

this actually has common tools unlike other videos lol :D

I left the threads in my ring so it will stay on my finger more securely. I twist the ring onto my finger and then torque it to 30 inch-pounds.

He can make a ring from a nut. my dad can make a disappointment out of a nut

My eye : Did you see it? My brain : Yes. I think we can do this My hand : *YOU CRAZY GUYS*

Very good job and just using common tools you know we don't all have fancy workshops with all the latest tools you done a great job

Here’s a tip for anyone trying this on their own, turn the nut 90 degrees in the vice and do all the filing sideways. This will keep the nut from bending/distorting if you clamp it too hard if your nut is made from a softer metal like brass. Being able to have the nut tightly gripped will also help if you’re running into problems with it moving as you are filing

I liked the idea so much I made one out of a brass nut from a faucet I replaced. Took a couple hours to make, but at least I was at work when I did it. Turned out quite nice. Even got a couple complements on it. Thanks for the cool idea .

With a little patience almost anything can be made with Files

About 18 years ago I turned a socket wrench part from craftsman into a knights ring, the round part of the socket. I've seen rings like it in the stores from $100 to $200. I tryed to polish it with cloth for a couple of years 😋.(I worked 3rd shift and didn't get the rest that I needed thanks to some step "kids".) Years later I finally got it polished right. I used different emry cloths and then once a week I would use auto polish for chrome.Then I would use silver polish on it and then buff it with an old sock. Now it shines brightly in the sun. I also do this for my swords and knives. 😀

Plot twist:he actually did it in this time and is the flash

I have one of those my dads friend made him 40 years ago. Wont fit my finger so i keep it on my keychain in memory of my dad and his friend... Glad to see people still making them..

Here i am at 00:55 with school starting in a few hours watching a random man create a ring out of a bolt. Makes sense😂

When I got up this morning making a ring wasn't even in my top 50 of things that I wanted to do... now its like number 3... this is gonna happen this week.

That's Nuts!

Very cool. If people only knew how much time it takes they would appreciate their jewelry even more :)

Thank goodness this video is sped up to x200. Otherwise we'd still be watching.

Although the music was shit, the video was very interesting and I can’t wait to try it out. Thank you for the inspiration

This is my favorite passed time! I love to make rings out of nuts! The key is to get your nuts inside something ring shaped to get them the shape you want.

Ohhhhh yeah! i want to start making jewlery for the first time and it seems that I found the right project to take on! thank you~!!!

what made me really wondered the brightness in finishing!! unbelievable !!! this is a real artist

Dude, that is absolutely gorgeous and I just want to congratulate you on having way more patience than I do.... though I now kinda want to try this myself (goes looking for files and a good bench vise)

Love it. Great work. I've seen other ring makers so this using a dremel tool. I like watching yours so much more. The only other video I have seen that is een remotely as cool is one where they forge a nut into a ring.

Beautifully made. Keep doing the good work.

Hey koss I made 3 of those rings and sell them to my classmates thanks for sharing your skill

This video got my like right away because using a file for something like that must have been a huge pain and no belt sander as well extra pain

Looks awesome I'm looking for things to try on my down time at work and this is perfect

I made one by myself and give it to my boyfriend he was so happy and surprised what I have done 🤗

That is pretty cool , keep up the great work and thanks for sharing . Cheers

this dude got tired making this , and he got a good looking peace of art , good work sir!!

What is this comment section??? People complaining about the music, people saying their rings are better, people asking what tools to use when they clearly are shown in the video

That nut never had a chance!!😄 Good job!!

once you file out the inside... its done.

I'll make this from nut with ordinary earing, to ring of my daugther, because you inspired me

this looks exactly like the ring my grandfather made before he died and he gave it to me. Obviously he made it years before this video but it still is crazy how much it looks like his ring

Very nice you have made with common tools that's good

TY. Haven't tried that yet. Made rings out of spoons coins tokens washers bamboo various other woods - metal

Verry nice, an inspirational peice for shure, thanks for the vid. Keep up the good work!

really nice work,it came out really beautiful!!!

I gotta hand it to you. That first minute was IMpressive.

Great video. I do have one concern though: I would have liked to see you finishing the inside edges of the ring. If someone were to follow your video, they may not realize with all of the work of sanding that you were doing, it would leave a razor edge if not dealt with.

The finishing is incredible.

Dude, GREAT job!!!

Very Nice work I would love to have that ring.

Great job! Again more with a gem !!

Congratulations on your patience

thats a stunning ring

this video is nice mate i started selling rings for 10 pounds then i bought power tools and then just builded my brand op now im selling rings up to 100 to 200 pounds

Cool ring. Hey could you tell me what kind of energy drink you used to sand and polish that ring so quickly? You must be must really popular with the ladies.

Beautiful and good work

Wait I thought the only way to get a ring from a nut was to say you were on birth control, when you weren't.

Good work,bro!

Very cool,good job.

GREAT JOB, NICE/FUN MUSIC!!

Bad ass bro! I love it.

I say well done to get that quality by hand shows talent and I have no doubt you can use power tools just as well. Kids with a vice and simple tools could give it a crack. 🇦🇺👍

This music feels like an LSD trip

My god people like to complain 😅 nice work bud

Great job.

Amazing job , Respecting to you ..

This is really common tools you're using and it turn out beautifully handmade ring,well done:))

You diserve tons of like Everything is made from hand Wow man You r awsm!!!!!!!👌👌👌👌

This was a project everyone did in 8th grade shop class - using only hand files. It was actually pretty cool.

Hi. You should've left the inside last so you'll have a smaller surface to work on. 😀

who needs a gym when you have metal files.

Nice, I'll use a lathe for the iner part and a dremel for the outer side of the ring, good job bro

Wow I like it!👍

Awesome work. Using a softer Brass nut of the same size would likely speed the filing/cutting process up somewhat. Also, consider using some cutting fluid when cutting with the hacksaw, it'll make cutting a lot easier, and swill some of the steel chips out of the way, stopping any wandering. Also, use pieces of bicycle inner tube to secure stuff in vice jaws to stop your work from slipping. 🤙

Excelente trabalho meu brother! Like👍BRASIL

Beautiful ring and true craftsmanship. I believe the point of this video is to show you can make beautiful things without power tools - like its been done for thousands of years before electricity came along. If the electricity were gone forever THIS man could still earn a living. All you power tool guys would be on welfare. grin

Awesome stuff

It's kinda like a single finger knuckle duster. Looks awesome

Love it!

Like nd comment for your hardwork man... u nailed it ;)

Him: *starts video off by filing by using filer* Me: *looks across workbench at dremel with file bit* Him: *rubs on sandpaper* Me: *Looks again at dremel* Him: *cuts sides using file* My dremel: *sweats aggressively* And yes I understand the title says “Common tools” it’s just a joke

Can you detail the different grits you went through? I'm trying to get a higher shine on my own ring.

amazing. well done

Perfection 👌🏾

Koss.... Outstanding.. incredible!! Terrific job and beautiful craftsmanship! How many hours did this take you??

Улыбнуло. В юности в 90-х делали так же. Прям ностальгия.

I liked your video it's was awesome and you made it buy hand no use of machine it was awesome

The speed of those hands!! 😮😮😁

how long did this take in real time

That's dedication ...... wow

This was xactly what i was looking 4 ☮️💪👍🤘

TOP TIP: "Buy a drill bit the size of your finger...then you can make a ring out of virtually anything.

He put in the work and hours 🕐🕑🕒🕓🕔🕕🕖🕗🕘🕙

Respect, bro your fucken patience you bought my respect

Impressive! Thanks!

Big like!👍👍👍👍👍✅💪Felicitări! Great video 👍👍👍

Cool job - what saw did you use? I've got a bench grinder but wanted to try it by hand first.

I love it!

Wow amazing

I did only I used a grinder in stead of the saw and it looks awesome

Nice job

Superbe bravo, merci

Ferb, I know what were going to do today

That is so cool

What kind of sand papers were used ?

You can also buy brass and stainless nuts to use. Brass looks good.

Nice and useful
