Another great video! I love how you put in the product numbers!! It makes it easy to know the supplies needed for this project! Keep the videos coming! They are very inspirational and educational!
Thanks for sharing your always incredible videos Leslie! Question- what did you use (on your flex shaft to clean up the ring shank solder bump where it attached to the backplate ? 😘
+Gertrude Sever for a fe reasons.. Its easy to get the cab out in the future, and it helps to have a place for moisture to go that gets trapped you your setting over time
Thank you again for sharing - so much fun to watch! Love your work... btw - got my Tucker Tools shot plates today!!! all because of you! Take care, Paulette from Canada
Neat vid! What was the tip that you used on the ends of the shank where it meets the backplate after soldering? I've never seen one shaped like that before.
I also got my tucker tool shot plates sp1 and sp2. I am going to buy GBM, the graduated bead die set and the TB1-4 sets and the BC2 set as well. That's a total of about $660. Do I need all the TB-4 sets? Can I get just one? Also, how do I size the split shank ring? How do you measure where to cut?
Where do you get the rubber polishing tip? You used one in another video, but it was not on the list of items needed for the class. Have tried to find in the Rio catalog, but nothing called a tem-pro. Help please!
Another very entertaining as well as instructive video. Though it takes a lot of time and skill to learn and hone the techniques, you make it look so easy, and "do"able. Thanks for sharing. I like your workbench, modified from a laminate counter top. I need to get something with a "circle indentation" with a catch tray - I keep dropping the pieces I saw or cut and spend wayyyy too much time searching on the floor. I also watched all of the advertisement, assuming that you get $$ from the ads, albeit small (~_~). May your solder flow ever so smoothly. Thanks again, Shirley (ps. sorry for the confusion - when I signed off with that solder salutation a couple weeks ago, I didn't know my coworker Denise had logged onto youtube. That was me leaving the comments, not Denise.)
Leslie Villarreal Love the pink bench. I love to re-purpose. I don't have money to purchase brand-new top-of-the-line workbenches, tools, torches, etc. As long as we aren't in a huge hurry to get everything we want or need all at once, and have a wee bit of imagination, we can save a lot of money and have fun with the search and our own creativity and innovations. I needed a torch. I hesitated spending $400-$500+ on torch, tips, tanks, arrestors, hoses, & regulators. Lucky me - I found three Meco Midget torches (new-$145 each, a Smith Little Torch competitor) + five original Meco torch tips at a yard sale for $10. That was my find of the year! They also had 2 full propane tanks and a four foot tall oxygen tank. I took it all, and felt like I hit the jackpot. My workbench is a $5.00 dropleaf library table from a yard sale; soldering/enameling/pounding table is my old rolling butcher block from my kitchen. I made the rack that holds the rows of my enamel jars out of old chicken feeder tops turned sideways and screwed to pegboard. Thanks again for taking the time to do your instructive videos. Such a pleasure to watch - lifts my spirits!
to bad the video was sped up can't really see what you are doing and the music would have been fine but sounded awful sped up and couldn't even try to concentrate on what you were doing. From what I could see of the end result was pretty but you couldn't really appreciate your work at that fast of speed.
+Linda Williams Turn the volume off .. These videos are meant for entertainment purposes only. Just watching me work having fun in my studio they are not tutorials. If want to LEARN some great stuff come take an online class.. lesliekailvillarreal.com. Thanks for watching!
Seriously? She shows you a free video on how to make a ring and you whine about the music? Try being grateful and turn the volume down, there isn't any verbal instruction any way! Good Grief!
