I found a tip, if you want a size 6 for example, you start wrapping it in the mandril 2 sizes down for you to have the size you want because it will expand as you see. And if it to lsmall then you just stretch it, it's just to get the starting hoop for rings

Hiya Lady Stardust, yes more questions from me. Can you polish off the gold if you overdo it when shinning with very abrasive tools? would it not be better to mark the cutoff point of a ring for fitting a tube, then move 4mm along the wire, then cut, so the extra wire instead of being in your hand is still on the length of wire and available to use? It gets to me, we cut off the piece and put it in recycling when we could still use it. Using flush-cut cutters would help with cleaning up the ends prior to soldering. Less filing to do. Steve...

@TheArtOfMetalsmithing 3 жыл бұрын

I think what they meant was that it shouldn't be, that perhaps it's a rule not to solder it as it's not ideal. I do agree with it, it's best to do cold connections when it comes to gold fill, but at the same time, why not take advantage of other possibilities! Obviously this is not as good or as valuable as the solid gold, but that's precisely why people choose it, it's a more affordable option 😃 And it can be soldered, so no harm if someone want's to play with it :) Definitely give it a go if you want to! And good luck 🌞

Thank you so much for sharing. Great works and tutorial ! I really love to watch your video channel. I am wondering if the 14k gold surface of gold-filled wire would diminish or not.Could you tell me it is ok if I polish it by using file or sand?I am from Japan. thank you for your time! 🌸

@TheArtOfMetalsmithing 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you! Very happy you liked it :) Gold fill is a bit better than plating, and lasts longer, however it still can be removed if too much sanding and polishing is done on the surface. It's usually best to avoid soldering with gold fill (and choose cold connections). But if soldering is required, it's best to solder very carefully, so there isn't a lot of cleaning required afterwards. Files might be too abrasive, so I personally prefer sanding paper and buffing sticks (or medium silicone attachments for rotary tool). It's a cheaper alternative to solid gold and more attractive alternative to cheap plating or brass. It does diminish over time a little, it won't last as long as solid gold, but I think it's still great to use this metal if you want to create gold colour jewellery of better quality than plating or brass! Hope it all makes sense haha 🌸🌞

Thank you so much for showing how to solder rings at home! Love your videos! I was wondering if this soldering technique also works for stainless steel wire mit 18K gold PVD plating? Can you help me with this? Thanks a lot!

I'm afraid I won't be able to give you advice on this, as I haven't worked with either of these metals before, sorry! I hope you'll be able to find an answer, good luck. And thank you so much for watching ❤
