In this video, Robert shows how to die form without a press. Robert uses a vice and faux bone. Die forming is a way of forming metal metal sheet by pushing it through a die. Usually, die forming requires a hydraulic press which is heavy, big and expensive.
Robert Dancik, artist, inventor and instructor, holds a Masters degree in sculpture from Northern Illinois University, and a BA in fine art from Adelphi University. He has been an artist/teacher for more than 30 years and is presently an adjunct professor of education at Pace University. Robert has taught people from kindergarten to graduate school while exhibiting his jewelry and sculpture in museums and galleries across the US and in Europe, Japan, and Australia. While concrete may seem an unlikely material for jewelry, this specially formulated powder creates a final product that is lighter than stone, resin, metal clay or metal. It's easy to use: just add water and it sets in minutes, cures in about an hour. Solid Expressions Artist's Concrete by Robert Dancik is versatile and strong: pour it, mold it, tint it, and embed it with virtually anything! Add Robert's Solid Expressions Pigment to change the color to light or intense. - Jak na to + styl
You are a very good teacher. Not everyone that masters a technique can explain it.
I´m putting a question under your comment because it´s on the top and hopefully somedody can help me out.
No insult here. I´m no native english speaker and do not know every term so far, so:
What the heck is this Fullbone, Foolbore, Fummbunn or whatever? i couldn´t find it in the shop either.
Subs would really help me out. Or somebody who knows what that material exactly is or at least how it´s written.
Thanks a lot. The video is really good. I´ve subbed immediately.
Boy, were my eyes opened to the new possibilities. Thank you, Robert!
Robert Dancik, you have a great teaching style. The right guy in the right job.
I couldn't agree more - he's excellent isn't he?
Excellent and engaging tutorial, thank you so much Robert. As we say here in the UK, you can come again! 🤗😬
Love this!! Such a great alternative very clearly taught.. thank you so much!
Die press on a budget! Brilliant technique! Thank you for sharing.
Can’t wait to try this out. I want a press but as you said, they’re not cheap. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome share ! So many tips! Thank you.
Thanks Robert, I’m looking forward to trying this! I’m gald to see you are doing well 😃
This is a game-changer for many of the types of jewelry I like to make!! Can't wait to try it!
This is a very fun technique with a lot of possibilities. I love the instructor's clear teaching style. I look forward to trying this. Thank you for sharing!
clear teaching style = i'm fond of his verbiage

I had no idea this existed! I'm going to try this out.
Thank you!
Wonderful channel. Subscribed.👌🙏
Pipe is called a cheater bar… in the world I come from…
Great overall process that requires almost no expense if creative and improvise any and all of the materials tools shown…so many possibilities…love it!
They make large aluminum sheet parts for aircraft on a rubber press the same way. Thanks, this is a great idea using a bench vice,
Thank you Sir..
Thank you for teaching me that rubber carving blocks exist. I had no idea.
Thank you ☺️
Wow! to think of all those years i spent going tap tap tap,... around ....and around...and arounnnnd. lol! thanks so much for sharing your geniousness😄😄😄!!!
Excelente técnica. Gracias. Lamentablemente no incluyo la lista de materiales, tampoco están activados los subtitulos en todos los idiomas , no todos hablan el inglés y CZcams se ve en todo el mundo.
Brilliant, how did you do the bezel one? Couldn't quite hear what you said. Exactly what I need to make for a project. Thank you
Cool ❤❤
What size vise do you need for doing die forming? Thanks!
Not sure what scale he's using for 'very expensive', but I know a guy that forms custom speaker grills with a similar technique. He uses a simple H-press from Harbor Freight and MDF forms. I just looked, they have a 12-ton one for $170. They also have a 1-ton desktop arbor press for just $65. The throat of the arbor press and vice is small for sure, but that 12-ton model is only limited by width. I like the vice technique, will use it sometime for sure.
So, you’ll have to creat your own dies? Could this technique be used with pancake dies? I’m assuming you cannot use impression dies typically used on a press?
What is the pressing rubber called and where can I get it?
A vice is just a horizontal screw-press, so, you’re still using a press. Forming without a press would be hammer-forming. The rest of the video is very useful die-forming info; thank you for sharing!
without a hydraulic press
@@ferminvazquez2897 Yes, but that's not what the title says, is it?
What type of rubber did you use? When you cut the center out of that one piece, did you do that before you beveled or after?
would this also work if I used a 3d printed form as a plunger? so that i get the exact design pushed out ?
Cool Tools doesn't sell the rubber or the thick Faux bone that he demonstrated that I could find and navigating the website is awkward and difficult I just gave up. To bad I guess I will have to find a way to do it without their products
Use the search option. Both come up.
I have been told that you can use a drill press too ,is it possible , ? Thanks and God bless . Lee
I have used a hardboard (masonite) with brass plate
3:58 Would love to see a stone set that way. I can't really envision it.
Thank You !!! What gauge copper are you using ?
Sorry, I asked before I watched the whole tutorial....22 G
Thank you for the very informative video! Where can I reasonably purchase the rubber? Thank you!
Hello, you can find the rubber here: cooltools.us/collections/tools-equipment/products/rubber-carving-block
U can even simply push with a tool in puncheon without a press here. Even a more complex shapes can be made with a tin also.
Amazing. Thank you for sharing. Is there anything I could use in place of the faux bone?
Hello, we are unaware of any other product similar to Faux Bone. You can find Faux Bone here: cooltools.us/collections/faux-bone%E2%84%A2?Finishes%20&%20Embellishments
Thanks for watching!
I'm gonna try this but with recycled HDPE plastic
do you have a link to the faux bone and the rubber? Thanks so much!

What gauge metal are you using? I love this!!!
Hello, this is 22 gauge copper. Thanks for watching!
... as I'm pushing this farther ...
This was a really helpful video. - just what I need to do. But it would be more helpful if you put some of the details in the comments or printed on screen. I’m new to this area, but I could not understand that you were saying “Faux Bone” or where to find it at Cool Toolls.

Just be aware that vise handles are sized you don't damage the vise with normal force on the handle. Use of a cheater bar to increase leverage may step the threads (usually in the nut) or split the nut. Hydraulic press is much the same cost as a vise that's big enough to withstand this abuse. It does take up floor space though. You could try this technique out with a vise but plan to buy a press soon, before your vise breaks if you want to do much of it. Otherwise you risk needing to buy BOTH a new vise and a press
Strip the threads, not step. Pardon my phone autocorrect.
6:41 What kind of rubber is it?
Hi John, this is EZ cut rubber. You can find it at most craft stores.
I imagine that the press used for vulcanizing rubber could also work without the heat.
i wouldn't.. maybe with additional steel for protection, but probably not worth it
👍👍👍
Could always use a bottle jack
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
At 1st I use a book press. Later I swift to a bench vise for the past 14 yrs.
“Linoleum has a tendency to be toxic”? Something is either toxic or not right?
These ideas should be directly applicable to using C-clamps instead of a vice.
What would happen if you parked your car on it?
Roberta Pihl says that will work with her impression plates…the car, I mean.
I like your ring with an eye in it.
It's so beautifully simple and
so unusual. 💍
8:31
Phobone.
Misleading! A vice is a type of press
😂
8:09 Deforming your workpiece just so you can see where to put the rubber seems very non-ideal.
Linoleum is toxic?? 🙄
I enjoy any project by Robert Dancik.
It's a shame that you decided to "rebrand", there was nothing wrong with your original design, it had a very timeless appearance.
The branding now seems a bit juvenile, with a craft vs. art feel.
If it ain't broke...
🤔What rebranding?
this is just a two min video
