- In this film, Andrew shows you two ways to produce a "hammer" effect onto a silver band.
This is a film topic suggested by a subscriber to Andrew's At The Bench CZcams channel for him to show and demonstrate whilst in lockdown.
Please reach out to him by what ever means you can and ask him some questions that he can make films about. It may be something simple or just a thought but please reach out to him so he can make some content for us all to keep us entertained over the next few months.

Andrew you are great ❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
Great information. Thank you so much
Very detailed overview of methods! Thank you! You run one of the best jewellery making channel!
Oh thanks Andrew, the ball burr method is one I hadn't thought of and looks really nice 🌸
Great effect Andrew! thanx again for the great video. And the new workshop looks great as well!!!
Thanks again for the video, I’m going to give them ball burr a try. I’m always having trouble getting the sizing right with the hammer technique. What a treasure you are Andrew at this time of lockdown. Hope you and family are doing well. Re the new renovations, I think the lighter background was more impactful. You stood out more in the videos.
Great technique. Thanks!
Another great video! Many thanks!!!
Thats a great idea using a ball burr, it just looks so much better than hammering the ring. Thanks for showing us the process.
Very informative, thanks , you’re the best teacher 😀
Thanks again for the video beautiful job
I stumbled upon a super short video on using a bur as you just did but I needed more instruction than it offered. Thank you for sharing this process as I think it’s kinda cool and it become useful in my work .
Decisions...decisions always nice to have options...thanks for the video...
Thank you. I have been hammering away lately on a few projects, silver and copper. I do enjoy the effect and thank you for warning on the ring size. The hammer marks can work well too with a liver of sulfur wash. Now I have to try the ball burr.
I loved it ❤I’ll try to make it, you inspired.
The virus aint good for much but thankfully more videos from Andrew 🤓👍
Great tutorial!
excellent video, liked the ball burr approach. will try-
Much as I enjoy hammering, I think I might have to try the ball burr method! Thanks, Andrew.
I like them both.
Love the videos. I’m hoping maybe you could do one on the various special bezels especially the dagger. I seem to have a really hard time getting it to lay flat on the back plate. Since you can’t give any pressure without smooshing the daggers I’m stumped on how to achieve this. I’ve tried using steel wire to hold it down but there’s always a patch that doesn’t kiss the back. Thank you!
Its funny I make jewelry all day, but I love watching you do it too. Thank you for putting out these videos. It has inspired me to get out and make some of my own. Keep up the good work, thank you again
I'm just about to start but I will probably always enjoy the videos as well. I've never had any education on it aside from a few videos, mostly from John Hartman from Durango Silver. And I don't know any metalsmiths. Just giving my best shot! I have all the tools, compounds/solutions, etc that I need.. I'm about to purchase the silver next week! Wish me luck 🙏🏼 lol
Thank you.
In order not to change the size of the band, what if you hammered before rounding and soldering? Then at the join, you could go over it a bit again so that the texture is seamless.
Lovely 💕☀️
Ball burr method is messy, but makes a nice finish. I’ll have to try that, thanks.
When using a bigger ball it works better, just need more control of the tool. Also for polishing, the 3mm rubber polishing cylinders work great.
❤❤❤
Hi Andrew! You and Lucy Walker make using a ball but for texture look so easy 😂! Do you have any advice on how to not let the bur run all over the metal? I’m holding my finger behind it but it’s still moving around a lot. It sounds like you have your foot on the pedal pretty hard- should I be running the flex shaft at a pretty high speed? Any advice or tips would be awesome. Thank you!
Hi, Great video. Thank you
What is a GRS fitting that holds the ring and where can one be purchased.
You could also use a Red Square Acrylic Wheel directly on the metal . It gives the same effect as the hammer and the metal seemed to be already polished .
I wonder if it would be an idea to texture the half round, before you fashion it into a ring?
I assume that if you use the ball burr method then you do not need to start with a smaller ring, correct? That process should be able to be applied without changing the ring size, I think.
Yes. You are correct. I failed to mention that in the film. The ring can be the exact size when using the ball burr
@@Atthebench Thank you. Enjoyed the video
can you help me in what size plummeting hammer to buy. for similar a similar ring in your video? ive been looking at cooksonglod but not very clear on the size. can you recommend somewhere else to buy tools? thanks
How about doing it with a file ? Won't change the size of the ring or deform the ring but will mimic the look of the hammer technique. Thanks for the video!
Thank you look so beautiful.
Still getting views! ❤️
A nice effect is with a diamond file and with punches
hi Andrew can you help me please, when you wish to make a hinged round box how do you do the hinge, do you bend it round or do it just like a ordinary box hinge and leave it straight.
Hi Albert. The hinge has to stay straight
@@Atthebench thank you so so much its the first time I have tried doing a box of any kind and i had no clue thank you
@J CC thank you i will keep my fingers legs and eyes crossed and do a bit of swearing as well lol cheers.
What hammer did you use?
Thank you for the video.
Can I ask you some questions? I will marry in 3 weeks and would really like a hammered gold ring.
Can I use the same hammering technique (as you showed with the planishing hammer)on a 18k gold ring? Will it have a similar result? Will the gold ring stretch the same in size (about 1 us size)?
Thanks in advance!
Orlando Miller congrats on your upcoming wedding! If it's your first time and you haven't attempted to hammer your ring yet, I would call around near where you live with experience so it is done right. Or do some practice on some old jewelry. Especially if the ring is for your wedding. I want to try this too, but first will practice on some sterling silver old rings that are not of major value. That's a good question is what kinds of metal do you hammer lighter or heavier. It seems gold might be lighter to hit than other metals. I might try hammering on empty soup or vegetable cans or a cookie sheet etc... as my way to practice. lol IDK just a thought!
Help
I’m still learning metaksmiyhing.
I’m spending too much money without marketing
Why not use silver filled instead of sterling?
I have a question from lockdown in Paris, 42 day.
My question on another subject, I hope that is OK?
Here it is, I want to make a bezel for a round stone, 15mm diameter , I get a circumference 47.12 but this not take into account the thickness of the silver I am using. I keep repeating this exercise without getting this right.
Your help would be precious.
Try (Stone diameter + metal thickness) multiplied by 3.142 (pi)
@@Atthebench Thank you so much, I loved your Q&A yesterday.
how to make, solder gold, silver different brands. thank you
