Hi Chad! Thanks for all of your very useful tutorials that you’ve been so very kind to share. This is the first one that I haven’t actually watched on my tv and the first chance I’ve had to subscribe and like your channel! (I only just realized that one could do this on the tv too! Lol😮…Whoda thunk it??) again, many thanks!
I see u like to use the flat nose pliers for your bending,theres another type available that are flat on one side and curved on the other. Might be handy for bending!
@@chadssilversmithing it will be great for that like for me i forgot how easy annealing is i watched a video recently and the video stated you needed a kiln to anneal......😅 they probably sell kilns. Haha
Hello Marie:). I will eventually get around to that, specifically when I have a little more time clocked sawing things. For years I avoided sawing because I was terrible at it. A couple of years ago, I finally got a decent saw, and I started to like and use it more. As a general rule though I've been told that at least three teeth should be in contact with the edge if whatever you are cutting. Check around on RU-vid. One of the long established folks out there likely has a good video on sawing. Estona maybe?
Hi Chad do you have any tips on bending #3 triangle wire along the 90-deg side? Idea is to have a flat solder surface on the bottom with the long face on the outside
If I’m understanding your question, it’s probably easiest to do it in stages. Bend manually while keeping bottom against the bench, stop, correct any twist that has started to occur, anneal, and then repeat until you achieve the shape you’re shooting for. I hope I answered your question:)
Its just under 6” in length. #3 triangle sterling wire. The C clamp pushes the wrong side down but that got me thinking maybe i can carve a bit of a nylon jaw to hold the right position. Ill give it a shot
