    Very soothing. Ready for my nap, dreaming of wax chips.

    The tiny saw hitting his nail when he was cutting through the links was killing me :D But at least it was his nail and not his skin!

      Same and then the shot where he was making the O rings and the split in his nail was splintering D:

    It is so cool! I Love it :) But i have a request could you do before and after pictures of your creation in the end of the videos ?

  • @Deciboles
    @Deciboles Před 4 lety +76

    Would be interesting to see the process of capturing and recycling all your precious metal. Keep up the great content!

  • @lifeislong2154
    @lifeislong2154 Před 3 lety +51

    you should do the before and after look at the end of the video. It will look even cooler as it gives a reminder of how the jewellery was before the fixing/changing.

  • @cutecrochet
    @cutecrochet Před 3 lety +157

    The preferred the original design of the bracelet. It was so beautiful. This is not a comment on your craftsmanship however, it's excellent

    • @karokaro881
      @karokaro881 Před 3 lety +28

      I also agree, the previous bracelet was very interesting.

    • @helenhill9482
      @helenhill9482 Před 3 lety +32

      I also preferred the original. Also, the customer now has far fewer diamonds and less gold than she had before! I find some of the workmanship to be sloppy too. The solder joints on the jump rings (what he calls O rings) were not tight joints as they should be. He was filling gaps left by using cutters that were not flush cutters - frowned upon in the world of goldsmithing.

    • @tarrynabrahams3029
      @tarrynabrahams3029 Před 3 lety +15

      I agree...this looked like a few paperclips linked together...

    • @lunalovelife6957
      @lunalovelife6957 Před 3 lety +13

      I agree the original one was more delicate and feminine

    • @emilylaw3574
      @emilylaw3574 Před 3 lety +5

      I agree the original design had more .. I can’t explain what I mean exactly but the closest word was “work” it had more work . I know that sounds lame

  • @XxFeniceCheRisorsexX
    @XxFeniceCheRisorsexX Před 3 lety +20

    I love that after binge watching many of your videos I started to predict what step will come next, whereas before I had no idea of how jewellery is made! Thank you for sharing your craft!

  • @timg2727
    @timg2727 Před rokem

    I find it fascinating how often 3D printing is used as part of a manufacturing process, as opposed to just directly manufacturing items via 3D printing. It's such a useful and versatile technology.

    Him sawing through the links with his hands open and bare gave me anxiety.

  • @kerenkroll
    @kerenkroll Před 3 lety +27

    I love the design but did you make two bracelets or return the rest of the diamonds? Clearly there were many fewer in the second edition

    • @shastabare6026
      @shastabare6026 Před 3 lety +4

      Yeah, i was wondering the same. Maybe traded as part of payment? Diamond market value is pretty etherial.

    • @JMac-27

    I learn this in school, but because of Covid we don´t do much practical work anymore. Mostly theory for the last months. So to see this is a balm for my heart. I love metal work and smithing. Thank you sooo much I needed this today!

    Love this bracelet, and I know your client will, too. BTW, I noticed some little hands in the mix. I know it can't be easy to keep those curious little fingers away from things they shouldn't be touching or playing with. That is the age when they are so curious and fun...and adorable.

    Just a question, watched a couple of your restyling videos what happens to any diamonds left over?

    • @saskibla
      @saskibla Před 3 lety +5

      I think everything that depends on the customer. I presume that any leftover materials are either sent back to the customer if preffered or are discounted from the price and will be used in his later projects.

    • @illbeyourstumbleine
      @illbeyourstumbleine Před 3 lety

      I was just thinking how pretty it would be if made thinner/more dainty and turn it from a bracelet into a necklace. Same look just less bulk that would allow it to be longer and maybe also more of the diamonds to be used as well. Possibly wonder if the new setting he made could be used doubled sided to hold a diamond on each side? That would be really pretty as well and a way to use all the diamonds and have the new design sparkle from every angle when in movement.
      Just a few thoughts I had for my own old tennis bracelet as I love this as well but I also don't wear bracelets nearly as much as I do necklaces. Keep me updated if you happen do redesign yours!
