Thanks for all your insight Fencekid. I've been making coin rings for a few weeks now, and your tips have been invaluable.

@PucketyCrik 9 лет назад

Hi fencekid. I've watched all kinds of coin ring making videos. Some have expensive fancy tools, but I like your method the best because it's simple, cheap, and effective. Thanks for all the tips.

@shannonokelley8508 9 лет назад

Okay, I make jewelry (a novice at it actually) and this is so simple my 11 year old could do it! Never thought about it. Thanks for the great idea and tips. Going to have to try it when I get home. And the PVC pipe! Who would have thought!! BTW, you really crack me up on video, keep up the good work! :)

@sherriepatrick6713 10 лет назад

Hey thanks for the tip. I have made a few and was having trouble with that on 90% silver rings only, i will try this for sure.

@fencekid 10 лет назад

Cool man. You won't be disappointed. A little more of a pain in the ass, but well worth it in the final product. Keep on chuggin :)

@ultimatefacepainting 8 лет назад

I made my first coin ring and it turned out great, the only problem is that I used a 1/2 in. punch and it was skinny but nice, so if I want to make a wider band what punch should I use. Also I have the same Rappan coin I got it in some change at a store, I just through it in a box with all the other so called junk coins, who would of thought I would be doing this at 66 yrs. of age and a woman, just goes to show you that its never too late to learn new things. I just bought a vice and a 1 ton Arbour press, here in Canada, I could not find a 6 ton. I think this is ok. An old lady going to the counter with these lol.You inspired me Fencekid and that's a good thing, Thank You.

@fencekid 10 лет назад

right on man :) glad to help out. Yer gonna totally dig the silver ones

@geedubb2005 10 лет назад

I'm excited

@kjv-study2685 10 лет назад

very nice, I was thinking about how to do this without marring the inside.....I have a old collection of .72 silver mexican coins that I tried a couple on after doing several regular quarters...man did I jack them up....the first one ended up at what i would guess is like a size 20.....one of them I melted the detail off of getting it to hot, and one cracked real good....funny because all the quarters I did came out nearly perfect, but when I got on the silver I messed it up real bad....you've inspired me to keep it up though.

@fencekid 10 лет назад

Thanx man, I love comments like these. I wanna try a few Mexies myself

@dianazaalberg1993 8 лет назад

Hey fencekid, thanks for the video! I started to make my first coin ring but i lost all details, my ring is totally plane at the inside and outside. To start getting it inside out i used my metal doming block, to get the proper ring size i used a steel mandrel and a plastic hammer and i annealed it several times. After watching your video i will use leather around my mandrel, but did you have any idea why i lost all details at the outside of my ring? I used a quarter without silver content. The ring in the picture is what i have made, i am not happy with the result.

@ultimatefacepainting 8 лет назад

Oh Yeah 1 more thing....How do you get your pics to look so good and the close up is great, what do you use to get a great pic to show off your coins. I can barely see the B on the Rappan coin and that's under a lighted magnifier. I hope you see this.

@davidendres7808 3 года назад

How do you decide what size hole to punch through the centre to achieve the size ring you want

@opagrobbebol9863 9 лет назад

Good stuff, I now use a transparent PVC and is also working well. Just one thing I can't get consistent is the polishing silver coin rings. Maybe it is the annealing temperature ?? or the inconsistency of the older type coins, I.e a columbian half dollar 1893. One is shiny and one just doesn't want to shine. Your comment/advise appreciated. Cheers and regards from New Zealand

@fencekid 9 лет назад

Opa Grobbebol You're over heating your ring during annealing. For silver, try the Sharpie method and heat slowly.

@halharris1753 8 лет назад

+cody splane Dont heat it. if your using post 65 coins, not silver

@brandysigmon9066 9 лет назад

Another great tip-- use a mandrel for stretching the coin/ring that has no line or ridges in it, you can get them on ebay for about $12 bucks. Those sizing lines on the mandrel are what makes most of those ugly marks. Also another tip---If you find that the PVC pipe don't go down the mandrel as far as you need it to, you can take a hack saw and cut it lengthwise, from the end about 4 inches or so, then make another cut lengthwise 90 degrees to the first cut, there should be 4 slices down the pipe from the end when you are done about 4 inches long. Then wrap rubber bands around the end of the pvc pipe so it will stay tight to the mandrel and not slip over the coin while tapping down on it. The pvc pipe will spread further than the normal size so you can tap it down further on the mandrel This is hard to explain to some people without a drawing or showing how to do it but it's the best I can do for now.

@philais 10 лет назад

Nice! You are me and my sons hero! Get a ring stretcher. I use one. Beats beating it down the mandrel. As soon as I get it folded, on to the stretcher it goes. We jumped on your leather suggestion and perrrrrfect. I have people buying them off my finger.....really! A great hobby and there is pride in the workmanship as we see our rings get better and better. My son is now into the silver.....brave guy. Me? Still clad for now. thanks fencekid!

@fencekid 10 лет назад

rock and roll brother. I'd love to get a ring stretcher someday. Looks like you and I share the same passions. So much to be said for watching yerself grow beyond what you think yer capable of. Sounds like it runs in the family too, and that rocks. laters

Can u use any kind of car wax I think it is u use right?

@jadppe 10 лет назад

Hey Fencekid, I dig your stuff and all your tips really have helped me. I was wondering what kind of hammer you used on this video. I've used a hard plastic dead blow hammer but it takes forever. I know you used a rawhide hammer before but this one looks different.

@fencekid 10 лет назад

high density nylon teardrop mallet. the best I have found, and works like a champ.

@jeffcornelison9501 10 лет назад

I have the Punch & Die set from Harbor Freight. I have the mandrel, and the Liver of Sulfur came yesterday. The sanding block I have is 220 grit. That's the finest I could find at the local Home Depot. Got steel wool, 000 fine grit. I still need the Doming Block. Just saw that video. Anyway, I've punched 3 of these out now. The second one split on the bottom. The third one came out the flattest although a little off center. Flipped it over on the mandrel at about size 7. Worked it out much better. Anyway, I do metal detecting, and luckily have saved the coins I have found over the years. I wear a size 13, so think a half would do better for me. my question is, what size punch should I be using?

@MsOguevara 9 лет назад

You suggested using leather on the inside of the ring when pounding. How about using leather outside the ring to pound it as well? I can't help but think that will save marring the outside as well... Or does that one work? Might be too soft to pend, right?

@jayc7969 10 лет назад

Hey Fencekid,I'm sure you have explained this before but I was wondering how you get the outer edges to not get all dinged up. I am wondering if it is because I am using a small hammer and not a teardrop mallet. Hopefully I have made my problem clear enough to understand so you could help. thanks and your rings are amazing.

@fencekid 10 лет назад

Jay C Thanx Man. I wouldn't let a steel hammer make contact with the ring at all. The teardrop is the best I have found, but hard rubber or rawhide mallet would be my next choice.

@diegorosta 10 лет назад

Can you make rings out of bronze using the same process?

@danielford1590 9 лет назад

Hey FenceKid, I was looking for a new hobby. Think I found it! Ordered and have received all the tools shown on your video but have one question before I get started. Do you have any "rule of thumb" guides as to which size coins are better for which size rings and which size punches are best to start with for size ranges?...Thanks for the inspiration.

@fencekid 9 лет назад

Daniel Ford I generally stick with a 7/16" punch hole for both quarters and half dollars. A 1/2" works too, I just like to use as much of the coin as I can get away with. The smaller the hole, the wider the band. good luck Brother. You'll learn more and more with each ring you make

@rduval1255 10 лет назад

Thanks for sharing, looked you up in etsy.com to buy one of your rings. Please, keep me posted.

@Fapdragon 9 лет назад

@fencekid 10 лет назад

Right on! If you've gone far enough to purchase the punch and die set, I suspect you have the ambition to do really well. just b patient, don't rush it, take yer time and you'll make some really great rings. Each ring you make, you will learn more and more until you make it look easy. Good luck on your new hobby, and I hope any advice I have given helps you achieve what yer looking to produce. Let me know if I can help. Laters

@fencekid 10 лет назад

Right on Man! Those pennies don't look to shabby either. My first ring wasn't anything to write home to Mom about either. My second, is my first ring video. Make Rings out of Coins But those are the one's that started it all, and are two of my most cherished rings. I haven't doctored them up either. They're meant to be left just the way they are. Your next one will turn out better....:)

@brucezutter1440 9 лет назад

How do you make a larger size ring, such as a 13 -15 size. The 3/4" schedule 40 pvc will not go down far enough on the mandrel. Any suggestions for a different pvc size or type

@JamesCalex 9 лет назад

Once you get it that far use a 1" schedule 40 pvc pipe.

@Agropelters 10 лет назад

those are looking great fencekid

@jimsutton8874 9 лет назад

FK: If you're looking to make a size 14 final ring size, do you simply keep stretching the ring 'till you get there? Or, should you start with a larger hole? I caught your point in this video about NOT obliterarting the inside detail but NOT stretching so much. This makes me think I should start with a slightly larger hole punch. Am I on the right track?

@fencekid 9 лет назад

Jim Sutton No. The punch size will dictate how wide your band will be. The larger punch hole, the thinner your band will be. Imagine a punch hole almost as large as the coin. Not much left to work with is there? With annealing, you can get clear up to a 15, but because it was stretched so much, the markings on the coin stretch too. The farther you stretch a coin, the more faded the markings will appear on your ring. An optimum ring is one that is folded over, and not stretched at all. A quarter works best between a size 4 through 9. A half dollar? Size 9 through 13. We can go farther than that, but like I said, the farther you go, the more faded your markings will appear. If someone wanted a quarter at a size 14, but still wanted the markings to be sweet, well, they can't have it both ways. Go to a 14 faded, or stay small and mint. Such a person would have to seek out a larger coin to have it both ways.

@jimsutton8874 9 лет назад

Excellent response. Thanks so much, learning more and more.

@AgentOrangeCH 9 лет назад

There are several swiss coins, which would be nice for creating some rings. ->en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_franc Until 1967 they used silver for the coins also be big "5Fr" coins. If you want to do a very special one, you have to buy a coin called "Goldvreneli" is a bit expensive but also rare.

@sherriepatrick6713 10 лет назад

I have a tip for you and the viewer. When using the punch and die set, I was having all kinds of trouble to center very time in the die. I made a jig out of very thick Mylar or lexan .030” thick. You do need a sample that is true before you start. It look ruff to look at but it work’s true very time after you make the jig. Want to see?

@fencekid 10 лет назад

Absolutely! Let's check it out man. Great idea. A jig is the way to go.

@eatonwebdesigns 10 лет назад

You can get a machinist's square that comes off at a 45 degree angle.Run the coin up as far as it goes and make a mark, turn it 90 degrees and make another. Your done.

@SeanPhipps14 10 лет назад

Here's a question - in your other video about making these, the words got all stretched out... in this one, they don't. Is there anything you did differently that prevented that? Or is it just because you didn't make it as big?

@fencekid 10 лет назад

You got it brother, not as big not as stretched

@SeanPhipps14 10 лет назад

That's unfortunate... I dig the not stretched look, but I have mitts for hands. Gonna try anyway though!

@fencekid 10 лет назад

You'll dig it anyway:) Maybe try a half dollar. they make excellent mens rings, all thick and berly and what not. I wear a couple halfs and love em. size 9 - 14

@SeanPhipps14 10 лет назад

What about annealing vs not? Have you found any difference in the stretching/warping of the words when doing that?

@fencekid 10 лет назад

annealing is very important. all the annealing does is soften the coin so you can bend and stretch it easier. The farther you stretch a coin out, the farther the markings on it will stretch too

@sherriepatrick6713 10 лет назад
