You are a great teacher and have a ton of patients which gives the student lots of confidence!!!
Thanks so much! As a child I used to play. "teacher teacher" 🤣 and then taught at a school for 7 years, and now coach jewellery designers, so one could say I enjoy it! ☺️
Wonderful video...Thank you! Great to have someone who's not already familiar with the process. Helps to identify the areas we'll all need guidance on.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just saw your leaf earrings tutorial and the way you explained it is calmed, paused ...gives me the courage to give it a try.. ❤thank you!
I'm so glad it encouraged you!😊
Your student did great and she is so much fun! I broke a lot of blades starting out 😂. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Lisa, she's great! Love her! Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed it!
I'm just venturing out to explore other jewelers work and teachings. I learnt a lot and it was great fun. Thanks Megan. I will watch more of the series.
Fab!! Enjoy them!! 🤗
Your videos are great! Thanks so much
Glad you like them!
Your a great teacher and so patient! I’m looking forward to more of your jewelry courses.❤️😁
Yay! That's very kind of you. Part 2 coming out this afternoon :)
Thanks I am a beginner and really enjoy learning from you.
Yay! I'm so glad to hear that! Enjoy! It's so much fun learning! So much potential to be creative!!
Perfect 😍
So glad you enjoyed it! 🤗
Hiya Megan,
Good video, thank you. A few minor points, when Sjaan was sawing, the saw was far from upright, in fact significantly sloped forward. But far more critical her hair was free near the Dremel, you must have your hair pulled back and secured for anything like drilling as it is so easy for the ends to be caught in the drill and pulled from your scalp, in fact 'Be Scalped'! A few years before I did my apprenticeship that very accident befell one of the apprentices. We had to wear cloth hats with a hair net at the back for long hair. It was the 70s' and male long hair was 'Cool', mind I still have a ponytail.
Stay safe, Steve...
Hi Steve, Sjaan is quite tall and my table is set up for my height and I don't have an adjustable chair so it was a bit hard for her to straighten the blade. I did keep encouraging her to try though. But for her first time, I think she managed to cut pretty well. And the hair, yes I usually always get students to tie their hair up. Nobody wants to get scalped 😰 Hope you are doing well, Megan
Hi Megan, great video, I like to see how others teach (well) - as it's a huge part of the students success. I have a quick question: why do you have her use a needle file (the very hardest to keep on an edge and usually gives not as smooth transitions), instead of using the largest (flat hand file) you have, but in a fine cut? Larger area on a file gives much smoother lines, less falling off, more control = more success - and wayyy easier. If you feel otherwise, I'm very interested to understand your reasons. Thanks so much. Totally loving this video. You have such great natural light going on!
Hello hello, thanks for watching. 😉 I use the needle file with beginners because it takes off less metal so I find it safer for the first time so that the student can shape it as they like slowly rather than taking off a big chunk in the wrong way when they are still learning how to use the file properly. And I only have a course big file. 😉
Hiya Megan,
Good video, thank you. Two points if I may? The saw was sloping forward when Sjaan was using it. Her hair was very near the Dremel when she was drilling, having your hair pulled out, or 'Scalped' would not be
good. An apprentice a few years before I did my training did that very thing and was left half bald. We had to wear cloth hats with a hairnet in the back as longhair was fairly common back then in the 70s', I've still got a ponytail.
Stay safe, Steve...
See response to your previous message. Think it double posted. 😉
I love your creations. That's for the videos on how to do some jewelry making I'm seriously thinking about starting my own jewelry.is ur jewelry business still going? Is it worth it? And I think your a beautiful lady,, and you seem to be beautiful inside as well. Anyway thanks for sharing and I hope your business is still thriving
You can do it, starting is the hardest part then the rest is all fun and you end up with an amazing set of skills! My Jewellery business is doing better than ever and growing loads at the moment!
Are the small sanding sticks made or sold like that?
You can but them like that, but they wear out quickly, so I just cut the sandpaper and add more of my own. 😉
@@megan.collins thank you! Do you just put it with double sided tape?
Yes 👍
I have such a crush on this woman
😊
