Thank you! Love all of your videos, they are super clear to understand and you do a great job introducing new tools and techniques.
Susan, you’re a great teacher. Like when you said to cut the metal sheet on the outside of the line, makes it it so much more clear for me. Love to watch your tutorials, thank you for sharing your talents! Have a wonderful New Year!
The most helpful episode I have seen! Thanks Susan! I'm new to the craft.
Seriously loved this one Susan. Thank you bunches!🤗
Thank you! This was a great tutorial for a beginner, I really enjoyed it & can’t wait to have a go with this technique. Please do make some more metal work videos!
Thank you. More metal tuts please. Love your tutorials
I would be LOST without your videos. You are an angel! Thank you.

Thank you. This is so cool. Loved it.
Yes please more wire vids please Susan.
Susan, you are AWESOME. Love, love, love all your videos....!!!!
So happy I found this! I haven't worked with metal sheet yet but would love to incorporate handmade metal pieces/charms into jewelry - would definitely be more comfortable trying it out with shears rather than a saw first.🙂 I hope to try these materials out soon - thank you!
Love these! Trying this weekend!
Very cute and easy jewelry. Thanks!!

Would love to learn more!
Love this thanks
Beautiful yes I would like to learn more about metal.
This is so beautiful I think I found a new hobby thes are so beautiful

Hi I really love this video and I want to add components like this in my jewelry making. Where did you purchase your stencils?
Beautiful! Great tutorial. Where can I get the stencils? Thank you.
rose gaither I picked mine up at Hobby Lobby and Office Depot.
Where do you get those stencils? Thanks!
Thank you for your wonderful video's. I don't see that you posted the kind of sheers you used, and can't find anything that looks like these on line. Everything is big and heavy looking. The one's my husband has are to hard for me to use.
Unfortunately we don't carry these anymore, but they are made my Beadsmith if that helps! A quick internet search will find you some!
Thank You Very interés Teen💯
Hello, the metal does not have any cover, so it is not damaged. Our clean with somthing especial? Thanks.
Very good tutorial, I would like to know where did you get your scissors for metal. Thank you.
Hi! JTV doesn't currently have these shears in stock, but a quick internet search for "metal jewelry shears" should get you what you need! Pssst...try Etsy for this exact pair...🤫
Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing. What’s the name of the oxidation liquid? Where can the wood doming block be purchased?
The oxidation liquid is called Liver of Sulfur . Check out Rio Grande Jewelry Supply ,or google any other jewelry supplier.
Hi Bee! The liquid is liver of Sulphur (can be purchased here, www.jtv.com/product/finishing-kit-incl-buffing-blocks-liver-of-sulfer-gel-protectaclear-spray/JMKIT591). An entire dapping kit can be purchased here: www.jtv.com/product/doming-dapping-round-forming-kit-24-piece-set-with-block-range-2-3mm-to-25mm/JSTKIT124
I just came across this video. What steel wool do you use?
One question :Where I can buy this tools for working metals?
Can you do this with gold filled metal?
Love this! What shears do you recommend for cutting the metals? I have everything else due to my jewelry/resin/polymer clay work, but do not have the shears :) thanks again!
The ones used in the video are made by Eurotool. They are great!
Love this video!! Where did you get the cutting shears? I don't see link
Hi! JTV doesn't currently have these shears in stock, but a quick internet search for "metal jewelry shears" should get you what you need! Pssst...try Etsy for this exact pair...🤫
What size hole punch did you used
Would aluminium metal be suitable for this? Would it be too thin/soft?
I cut metal , but love your shears..I would love to know where you get them..thank you for this video , too..I do wash my jewelry immediately after I use the steel wool, to get rid of the smell of the Sulphur, and loose shavings
Hi Dale! JTV doesn't currently have these shears in stock, but a quick internet search for "metal jewelry shears" should get you what you need! Pssst...try Etsy for this exact pair...🤫
Two questions: (1) What is the size of your bench block? (2) If I only want to buy one hole punch which size would be more useful, a 1.25mm or 1.5 mm? Many thanks! Love your videos! I have saved so many that it is going to take me months to complete all the projects. A very nice problem to have. 😁
Here is a link to a great bench block and I love my 1.25 punch! -Katy

These shears look amazing! What brand are they?
Oh these shears! LOL We love them! ❤️ Unfortunately, we don't carry them anymore. 😩 However, in google, type this: "the best metal shears you will ever need!" and you will find them! 😃
Happy hunting!
Where do you get your metal shears please, what brand?¿
Only place u̶̲̥̅̊ got on u̶̲̥̅̊r site is in a kit that’s discontinued.
I really enjoyed the video but I also agree with Ki Keys. I don't need the entire set of products...just the shears - brand name, price and where to find/buy it. Is it possible to provide that information please.
Wow u̶̲̥̅̊ asked 11 months ago. I’ve I’ve no chance of her answering
What brand of metal shears are you using? I would like to get the exact ones but I don't see a link in description.

Where do you get the small files?? Do you get them at Lowes or Menards??

Hello! You likely won’t answer this since the video was made long ago but I just came across it and I’m wondering about the patina on the copper. Will it come off one a persons clothing or skin while wearing?
As you probably already know, patina is when copper turns green over a long period of time due to oxidation. This is a surface condition, meaning once cleaned, it shines it up like new. Most people love the patina that happens over time (the best example is the Statue of Liberty) and choose to keep it once it occurs. Raw copper that is used in jewelry can have the tendency to turn your skin green. You can do one of two things. Should you choose to keep the patina that has occurred on a piece of copper jewelry, you can coat it with an acrylic sealer (assuming it doesn't have ANY natural gemstones set it in it - you don't want to spray those with a sealer) to keep the patina in place and protect your skin. Two, you can clean it up with tepid water and a mild soap every so often, then give it a quick buff to keep it looking nice. There is a third option, which is to spray the "all metal" copper base of the jewelry with acrylic sealer before adding any stones. This will help stop oxidation and keep your fingers from turning green, if this type of metal does that to you. Hope this helps!
@@JewelSchool yes that helps tons thank you so much!!!

Where can I get those metal shears?
These are all sold out on Jewel School, but a quick internet search for "metal jewelry shears" will yield some good results!
Where do you get your medal at

Hii, can you tell me the names of some other textures?
Hi! Textured wire comes in flat and round. Textured means that the wire has an etch, design or pattern engraved into it.
@@JewelSchool thank you ^.^
What brand metal shears do you use?
Hey Monique! These are Eurotool.
Eurotools!¡ 👍🏻
What is the brand of the metal shears?
Great question! This is a brand we used to carry, but don't anymore unfortunately. Boooo! 🤫 Ssssh...don't tell anyone, but do an internet search for "best metal shears ever" and we bet you will find this exact brand for sale. 😃
3 years down the line I found them and yes they say best ever l̤̮㋡l̤̮ in Etsy
Very very frustrating. I went to find out the brand of shears to buy them and the link only allows you to get information on the entire
Set of tools needed for the project. Not only did it not give the brand name, it didn’t give the price or allow a link to buy items
Separately. It’s a shame because you’re great! I literally want to do every project you present 😊
Try your local hardware store. The staff will help you.
, yes penny's please.
Did you get a new rawhide hammer Susan?? I thought you had that old mangled one that you didn’t want to get rid of?? Did someone or someone’s convince you to get a new one or did they gift you one?? lol😂😂😂
This is an older video before it got all mangled! LOL
I love this but that's a lot of tools.
Guys, you really need to explain working with liver of sulphur more carefully. Work safety!
You do not tell the number of file. When you first hook the wire that you cut you waste so much wire. You do not tell which direction to use the flush cutters to cut the ear wires that you are using and the gauge for the ear wires, and sandpaper or file the ends of the wires so they do not cut your ears when putting them in !! Make it safe !!!!!!!!
it wouldnt hurt for you to tell the rest of the "class" your valuable information that she forgot to mention. especially to make it safe for them. :o)
@@ninamcrae7295 Not sure why you are being snide but when you are teaching on video it should be safe and comfortable to wear and not hook on your clothing
@Deby Nieto Not quite sure why your calling me SNIDE , I added a smiley just to let you know it was not meant to be rude.I just figured that since SHE wasnt answering any questions (as it seems) That maybe you could share your abundant knowledge on this subject so others who read the comments could learn from your experience.As well as you telling her what she seemed to leave out of her video.
@@ninamcrae7295 Sorry honey, my mistake..with the quotations around the word class and I took the laughing face differently. If you cut the very end of your wire that you are making ear wires for with a flush cutter the cutter should have the flat / flush side towards the end not the outer side as the result will give you a very sharp jagged cut..practice on a piece of wire first. The end of your earring wire should be a neat flat cut then it can be filed smoothly removing any burrs by using a small fine diamond file or even fingernail file .,there are even concave cup burrs , you can find these on Ebay pretty cheap. The wire gauge you can use for ear wires is usually 20 gauge but you could use 18 for a slightly thicker ear wire or 21 - 22 for very small ear holes as long as you strengthen the ear wire on a steel block with light hammering when the ear wire is done. Sorry about the mis- understanding.
Now I have a question why do I have captions on???? I hate this
Hey Sandy! Captions can be frustrating if you don't need them. We want your viewing experience to be a positive one, so let's see if we can help! When you're watching a video, you will see a small icon at the lower right hand corner that says, "cc." Just click on that icon and it will toggle your captions on and off. We hopes this helps and thanks for watching!
Wear gloves when doing that part
