It's a pleasure to watch a Master Craftsman. Thank you Skylar
A really nice demostration on using the SW system along with other tools and techniques and of course not forgetting the tips along the way. Thanks
+Anthony Dacey Right on thanks!
I absolutely love your videos! I have been making rings for a while, but I still learn something new every video that you post! What I love even more is that you give Jason credit where credit is due and not to the "other guy". I hope to see you at next years Coin Ring Crafter Convention!
+Joe Q Thanks! I plan on being there next year wherever it may be :)
Ive used 3 different type of presses in my working life, I am in the Aerospace industry. telling this to bolster the use of the arbor press. Ive used two different type of 50 ton presses. Hand pump type and electric hydraulic. Then the arbor. For small applications such as making rings in this fashion the arbor press is best because you can feel your work! You can somewhat with a hydraulic type, but the arbor is the best for feel and control. Ive watched a bunch of different videos from different people and their methods and what has amazed me is you are the first I have seen of someone finally using a small arbor press..Good choice, its an excellent tool. Haven't made any rings myself yet. Gathering info. Yes I do have an Arbor press. Look around for them, I got mine off of Craigs list from a machine shop where a guy was retiring. Paid 40 bucks.
+sfbfriend amber presses are good for sure but if I were to buy just one press it would be the 6 ton a frame press. It actually has much more control. With an Arbor it takes more force to use and you can accidentally over press. That isn't an issue with a hand pump hydraulic press.
I actually disagree, but its more on what works for you.
Very interesting. I'm super r impressed. My mother makes silver and gold jewelry with stones. This is really cool. I'd like to try it my self. Thank you.
+Andrew Boyd Thanks I appreciate it!
your right about not needing much force to press i couldn't wait for the dies to come out so I spent some time at the machine shop Makin up my dies an there great an i had my push rods made from aluminum an its working very well its really amazing how easy this method works
+Cory Canfield Right on! I have really enjoyed working this method through the paces. Aluminum, that is an interesting choice. Do they get marred up?
The reeded side did leave marks the first time but other than that I haven't seen that its getting any worse an I've made it seems like tons since I've got them back from the machinist I've been Makin alot of the wide straight band with a 3/8 hole an small fat tire side for the ladies I thought the Morgans in the smaller sizes would just be to heavy but all the ones I've put out they won't take them off or have any complaints about weight
+Cory Canfield That is great. Yeah I figured that too but I have been selling a ton of smaller Morgans and not an issue at all. Some people really like big rings.
This is mind boggling to me I've been making rings since you made me one a few months ago still am cornfused 😇
Great work, .. Well explained, love this kind of video's, very educational ... Thanks.
Thank U 4 ur insight & informative Vids. to take Us through ur techniques and great workmanship! I'll be saving up to purchase one soon. Maybe the 'Walking Liberty'.
I hope I can reach you somehow with a few questions.
Beautiful... i think you just made me want to start a new Hobby. Do leather work but those rings are amazing.
Thanks!
I always wondered how they get that tube like form with the rings. Now I know it's the doming block, thanks for the insight.
I'm retired. After watch the coin ring making videos, I bought some tools and am trying it myself. Thanks for the inspiration.
+David Clinkenbeard Right on good luck!
Very good video. Well done, thanks for not playing music.
+chip bryant Lol thanks!
True because the music is always terrible and even worse it’s terrible at 50 times the volume level of the instructor!
Thank you Skyler.
+Gene O'Brien You're welcome!
hello...and have to say awsome!!!...I really enjoyed watching the video...my respects on your craftsmanship......I think I know what I want this year for Christmas!!!....
+jedi Master Thanks!
I love the shape of the smaller sizes...round and bulky. Will this go down to 6 3/4 -7?
great video I really would like to start Makin my own videos
You should!
Seems like science, math, and a generous dose of artistry. I was impressed that you must be so talented and skilled to be able to explain with such clarity a complicated process. Very cool and well done. I just still don't understand why after the gold is heated and cooled, it still is so malleable. Is that because properties of gold are so different from say, Iron? Asking for a friend...
+Joel Buchanan Yes non ferrous metals act different than ferrous metals like iron and steel. Annealing is totally different. If you don't anneal silver or gold, it gets harder as you work it and then will crack.
Thanks for taking the time to clarify the science. That's why you work quickly while pressing it. :) I get it.
neat, working with silver takes care..
Fantastic video.
Good evening friend, how much is it to send an alliance to Brazil?
Please install a vertical support directly under your arbor press. It shouldn't take more than a tightly fitted 2×4 from the underside of the bench to the floor beneath to eliminate all that flex you can see in the bench to when you use the press.
When all was said and done with this size 8 ring in the video, what size did the cut side of the ring turn out to be? 8.5-8.75? It was larger then 8, right?
+jayourdaddy I am not sure but it is always larger to be sure. It needs to be in order to have symmetry on the outside of the band.
@skyler- nice work! I notice you use a dry lube... What's the difference between dry and wet lube (other than the obvious)?
+Matthew Lawrence I like the dry better just because it doesn't get all over the place like a spray lube would.
The finished ring looks absolutely beautiful. One question, why don't you file the outer edge of the coin away to match the inside of the ring? I did two quarters yesterday and they look good but a little strange with both sides not being smooth. Personal preference maybe? Thanks Skyler, another older but great tutorial.
People really like that edge a lot.
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint Ok, I like it and all the ones I see have the edge but I just wondered. My wife prefers no edge but she always tries to be different, lol. Thanks Skyler.
I don't watch your videos but I liked this one nice point on wrapping with a lot of tape, and the use of the domeing block at the end...also the sizing chart. Thanks for the informative video
+Barry Smith Thanks for the comment!
You can put an oring around the brass to center it up.
+Lucky Larry Yep good idea
Thanks, is there a collective name for that sort of jewellery making equipment? or where can it be purchased?
WOW.
looks AWESOME .
Bless your hands. and thank you for sharing..
+BENTLEY GT Thanks!
that is the most beautiful ring ive ever seen you do grreaaaaaaat work
+Valgaris Ericsson Thanks!
This is cool! I've been looking at various channels on how they're made and yours seem to be the best of the bunch. I especially like the care and detail you put in protecting the coin as you make the rings. Do you make them to order or do you have them pre-made? Thanks, FB
Thanks! I make Everything to order.
Cool! If I ordered a ring, would you make a vid of you actually making it so I can show my friends and family? All I'd have to do is whip out my cell and show them. :) I think they'd like it enough that they'd order one for themselves?
Fernan Bañez No sorry. Making a video is quite a long process and those kind of videos would discredit my channel.
How do I get these materials or machines to make alliances?
Can you do 22k gold rings? Or have tips on how to I am thinking about trying to do one but don't want to waste a good peace if I mess up lol??
+Brandon RideOrDie yes I do gold! My best tip is just work slow and don't use old gold if you can. The modern coins come out better and have less issues
Very good vid. It explained a few things I was wondering about. Also, beautiful end result. Thanks!
+Gary Vander Giessen Thanks!
Hello, your job and fantastic would you order this ring? I live in Brazil and I'm working
Have you had any requests for a video on the SAE Sweedish process? I have many of the SAE coins but no Morgan's. I'm in the process of finding/buying some Morgan's. My SAE are 99.9% pure silver and I know they are more difficult/temperamental because they are so soft.
+Paul Linnell No I haven't but that would be a good idea. I rarely do them because of how soft they are.
Your antiquing always looks so much better than mine.
+BIll Broyles I should do another video on that. I noticed that different grit nail blocks make really different results. Mess around with different brands and grits until you find one you like. Thanks!
looks amazing, I can see this getting popular fast.
+Win Wilkinson Thanks!
What size hole did you punch for this ring ? Thanks!
+nascardude86 That was a 5/8" but I use 3/4" on ones 9.5 and smaller
awesome work. it wonder if it work with gold coin.
+Shau Hame Thanks! Yes I've done gold coins as well.
Good Stuff!! Thanks for sharing!
+Gern Blanston No problem!
do you ever make gold rings? great channel by the way
+Nick Vlogs Thanks! Yes I have done gold rings. You can see a few examples on my website under the gallery pages. www.changeyoucanwear.net
Thanks for the tip I got a couple new eagles im Gunna try it with one and see how it turns out. 👍
Sr 1 ring ka Paris kitn hai
how much do you charge to make one?
El billete debajo de "I Love Jesus" es peruano wow!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing! I love it👍
Where can I find a silver Morgan Dollar , some are Silver and copper can you help me.
I love your work. I wanted to let you know, you probably already know but it's worth a mention... You don't have to necessarily buy MS Morgans you can get AU or even a bit lower in grade. Because you are destroying the MS which is the luster on the coin you don't have to use a Ms coin. Keep up the Great Work and I've subscribed so I get your videos now.
Also. I see comments about how it hurts to see you destroy Morgans, but they must not know how many there truly are out there.
How much are your rings going for? I love them if you could put a price or tell me how to get in touch with you I would love to know.
Sure! Check out my website www.changeyoucanwear.net
Is there any reason why you sand after you anneal and quench? Why not sand before?
You can see cracks much better when the coin is black.
Great video. Thanks for posting!
+efman2k3 Thanks!
i don't know if i should ask you this here but +Coin Rings from The Mint - Change You Can Wear do you, by any chance, ship international via you're storefront?
+alisa343 Yes I do ship internationally! You can order through my website www.changeyoucanwear.net
Keya mujhe ae kam sikha sakte ho aap
Your videos are great !
would you use the swedish wrap to make a size 6 in kennedy half dollars? what size reduction dies do you use for half dollar and dollar size coins?
+kayla mickel Yes a Swedish wrap is exactly what to use to get s size 6 half dollar. Here is s video that explains which dies,for halves. czcams.com/video/IdExeXuOBcw/video.html
Off topic here....What is that thing in front of the Swedish wrap kit on your bench? It looks like a railroad spike on one end. Beautiful work. Keep it up.
+d3lp0rto d3lp0rto Thanks! That is a sterling silver railroad spike. Jason from Jason works made it. I love that thing!
Ah, so it is a railroad spike. Do you have more video of it or pictures? I wanna see more.
+d3lp0rto d3lp0rto sure here is a video he did on it. czcams.com/video/17fHs_sut6c/video.html
do you have available certain year morgan silver dollars? looking for 1884 in a size 11.5-11.25. love your work
+pbl57lsu Yes I do have 1884 Morgan's! You can order one on my website www.changeyoucanwear.net and add a note about the date as you order.
+Coin Rings from The Mint - Change You Can Wear Will be ordering monday after confirm my ring size. Thank you for the response
whitch acid or how it is called in eng. do u use on silverrings to get a better contrast ?
Liver of sulphur gel is what I use to get the contrast. I'm sure it is the same name in the UK.
Thank's bro and I'm glad u are doing well keep up the Gd work.
Where did you get the Arbor Press and how much was it? I only have the 6 ton press now. Thanks.
+Paul Linnell I got it at harbor freight for $45.
any more info on the next Coin Ring Crafter Convention ?
+sam terian I hear a bit of this and that but nothing definite yet. I will do a video when I hear for sure.
How many degrees were the inside hole of the die that you pushed the ring all the way through? It looked a lot less than 17 degrees to me.
It is a 5° die.
Good I thought so. Important information I Think.
Skyler, I'm planning on making a ring from a Tunisian Mallima 50 piece coin. It is made of brass, and I am unsure of how much to anneal brass, any tips? Thanks :)
+J Willie Brass is easy to anneal. Just heat it up to a dull red and you will be good. Thanks!
Thanks will have to try
You call what you are doing annealing, but annealing, as I understand it, requires cooling the metal slowly. You are quenching instead, which will make the ring harder, not softer (it sounded like the latter was your goal).
+Scott Gartner That would be right with steel or other ferrous metals. Silver and copper along with other non ferrous metals can be quenched with no hardening.
Thank you for the info, I thought it was more universal.
How much for a 1922....size 8....it would mean a lot to me.
Contact me through my website www.changeyoucanwear.net
Can you make me a 1979 Swedish wrap coin just like this one on the video ??
+Eric Enamorado I can but 1921 was the last year for the Morgan. Check out my website www.changeyoucanwear.net
i have a 2.7cm coin what size hole must i open
(for my index finger i have around the same size as you
+Kyriakos Christofides I would say a 1/2" or 12mm hole
How small can you take a Morgan dollar to ?
I go down to an 8 on my website www.changeyoucanwear.net but I can make it any size.
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint thanks Skylar 👍
Great vid. Many thanks, but would have liked to see use of the doming tool.
+Ray Mosher the last minute of the video shows it in use.
You should show the finished product after it's been polished. A 100% finished product would be nice to see.
+Andrew Lybrand Watch all the way to the very end. It's there.
Where did you get that 100 intis note from?
+Franklin Montejo I got most of them at coin shops.
This is totally unrelated to the "Swedish Wrap"! Do I recall that you had made an adapter, for your ring stretcher, that accommodated ring sizes larger than 15/16? I have been going thru videos trying to relocate that one. Again, not sure if it was you? If so, could you let me know which video that was. Thanks!
+Keith Regan yeah I showed it in the long morgan video but here is the video where I made it.
czcams.com/video/Ty2eecuXX4A/video.html
Jasonsworks.com has a mega stretcher which I use now and it works much better.
I can't believe all the comments you get all I can say is for the ring maker that is starting out is get the rite tools and practice on clad coins 😇
السلام عليكم ورحمه الله وبركاته يا ريت بعد اذنكم يقولوا لنا الخامات والعده اللي بيشتغل بها نقدر نحصل عليها منين انا عمتي من جمهوريه مصر العربيه ام العالم كله وليه البرنامج ما يبقاش مدبلج او يبقى فيه تحديث باللغه العربيه بصراحه الاخ اللي شغال استاذ ومعلم و باشا الله ينور عليك شكرا لكم جميعا يا ريت تردوا علي
what can I do to get a ring like this ?
+Miguel Angel Lozada You can order one on my website www.changeyoucanwear.net. Thanks!
👍👍👍
Nice rings
+Laura Cino Thanks!
Okay, so I’m not a size 14 or 12or even close to an 8. I’m a woman’s size 5.5. So probably a quarter or a dime. What do you have for that?
I would recommend a quarter or even half dollar. You can check out the different options on my website. www.changeyoucanwear.net
how much ?
is this as easy as it looks or do you just make it look easy ? great job im gonna get some tools and try it out thanks for the videos ive watched all of them
+kolby howley There is a learning curve but with all the videos you can becom ed really proficient pretty quickly.
where do you find the Morgan coins to purchase for this roject ?
+Lillian Stacy coin shops
Hello my name is Manoel
I'm Brazilian and I find your art amazing with the coins ...
I would like to deduct two rings, for me and my wife ...
For her 18 cm and for me 20 cm.
thanks for the feedback.
+Manoel Amaral Thanks for the message! I wish I could ship to Brazil but I lost several packages and decided to stop shipping there. Sorry!
I tried contacting you via your website, not sure if it went through or if I sent multiple messages. If someone were to supply with the coin they wanted made into a ring, would you make it for them (obviously if they paid)?
Do you still offer classes/tours?
sorry if this was a duplicate message from one (or many) you received from my post on your page.
+hapsblog Sure I can do that for you! If the email wasn't going through, you can always give me a call. There is a phone number on the contact page also. Thanks!
Do you pickle clean after annealing?
+SmokeyJoe024 no not until late all the annealing is finished and it is time to finish the ring
+Coin Rings from The Mint - Change You Can Wear Right on. Thanks for the reply. I ask because my in a class I took, the teacher was very adamant about cleaning after annealing. I believe it was to avoid working the dirt into the metal. Thoughts?
+SmokeyJoe024 Everyone who works at craft has specific idiosyncrasies that might not have a purpose. I know I do also. This is what I'm assuming is going on there :)
+Coin Rings from The Mint - Change You Can Wear. Cool, Tyvm.
I love those rings, i'm in venezuela, how much will cost to get one bro???
quiero uno como le hago estoy en Monterrey NUEVO LEÓN México
+Victor Sk8 Lo siento pero yo no exportar a México. Tengo problemas todo el tiempo.
Y para Houston Texas?
nice
+Gzim Aliu Thanks!
i want one

Can you do a Swedish rap on a Quarter or give it the fat tire look
+Larry Kelley yes but it isn't easy in sizes larger than 5 or 6
I feel sorry for anyone wanting to start ringing now. The one ton arbor and the six ton hydraulic press, the cornerstones of the hobby, are no longer sold by Harbor Freight! Both of those items were available under different brand names, but it appears that they’ve disappeared from the product catalog of those other vendors catalogs also!
Wow I just had to check that out for myself! Fortunately you can still get plenty of them on Amazon
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint quite a few of those show out of stock also. The price was the main attraction at HF, but there’s fewer and fewer good deals there as the months go by. Glad I’ve already got mine! The 6 ton would be easy to make. Just buy a 6 ton Jack and round up some scrap metal! Merry Christmas Sky!
What’s the maximum time you work with the coin, before you anneal it again?
Is the die 17 degrees?
+Ian Eastwood no it is a 5° die.
I don't know man....this looks a little cooky....why wouldn't some sockets and reducing ring that comes with your mandrel work? Stacking things on top and not seeing if the coin is even would be a major problem. Doesn't this method also squish the raised details on the ring and flatten it all out???? Would make this very hard to patina wouldn't it? I see holes in this technique, sorry man. cool video though
+A C nope it doesn't hurt the details one bit if you wrap the coin properly. If you follow the notes I made in the video you won't need to see the coin. Sockets damage the die if you over press. Also the reducing plate is way too shallow of a die to work well.
You do the rounded look when you complete the coin? Just curious as the finish product looks pretty rounded to me as the reverse force would make more of a straight band look. I think sockets would be the same concept here as long as you protect the reeded side and reduce to make sure it is a good fit. The mandrel dies come in various sizes as well...so if you are reducing by mandrel just get it to the desired size. I don't know about you but not being able to eyeball the coin while reducing it would increase the chance for uneven, wobbly rings.
A C They don't ever come out uneven or wobbly. Did you watch the video?
Yes I watched the video and it is cool as heck. I wasn't trying to be hating just some questions. I'm going to do one with my die from my mandrel....1964 Kennedy and see. I will do a size 8 see what happens. It a genius idea. I will just use smaller sockets as it goes down. Great videos.
A C I'm sure you can make it happen it just won't be quite as easy. Good luck with it and let me know how it goes.

I always thought it was illegal to deface currency.
+Sketteck most people think that but it is not true with coins.
it is against the law to deface it and then try to use it as a coin!
