Wow, I am amazed and inspired by your work! I’m just beginning myself w carving rings, and I’ve noticed several experienced ring makers use a tool similar to a dremel but smaller. What is it called? I have a dremel and it works well for now, but I can easily see how a smaller tool would be better. Thanks!! You use it at 1:51 if that’s helpful! :)
I used several machines but the one I used to shave off at the beginning is a Foredom drill press also most of the bits and chisels I use I make those tools myself throughout the years. Thanks again hope this helps
For this type of job and most detailed jobs I like to use the green wax. Here's a link and thanks for watching! www.riogrande.com/product/matt-green-wax-ring-tubes-flat-top-center-holes/700510gp
Thank you for your reply. But what I meant is how do you produce this same design in different sizes? For example, if the ring in this video is a size 7, how do you produce one in a size 10?
@@marybethhall148 when you make these rings you always make them to the size in wax by using the ring tube sizer i used in this video. Even after the cast it can be sized by cutting on the tail end of the ring no problem. Hope this helps
It's an inside tube ring sizer you can purchase it at Rio Grande jewelry supply. Here's the link and thanks for watching 👍 www.riogrande.com/product/matt-ring-tube-sizer/700570
Hy so that's great 4 to 6 hour I'm a master jeweler I usually spend somewhere about 14 hours I'm to picky I like to work on it at least three different times to get the most out of the design
I make these molds by order. This particular mold is available the customer lost his job and couldn't complete work order. If you have an idea of what you want I can also carve a mold for you. Thanks for watching
That's actually a good question most of the tools you see in this video I made myself. You just gave me an idea for a next video to lay out the tools I've made how to make them and use them. Thanks for the question
