Thank you for this super tutorial, Roger. As much as anything, I am fascinated by your home made kiln and would love to know how you made it. Can you do a tutorial on that? Kilns are so very expensive to buy and I am wondering if one like yours would cost less?

Excellent video. It wasn't overly long, showed every step and gave grassroots hope to those of us just starting in this medium. I had considered using the lost wax method, but after watching your video, I think fine silver clay is the way to go! Nice music and the lack of speaking actually made it easier for my brain to fully absorb the process, start to finish in one view...tho I'm sure to watch many more times. The idea you provided for creating your own form was simply brilliant! Consider me a subscriber from now on!

+Jody Todd Ok ok...i was planning to make a vid on making this kiln,Give me some time, been very busy lately with other projects so sorry for not replying The most important things you need: -Insulating fire brick (the aluminium oxide type) -Nichrome wire (if you stay under 1100 deg c) or Kanthal wire ( for high temp pottery kiln 1400 deg c) -You need a PID Ktype thermocouple temp controller. -Solid state relay.The litlle output reay in most PID controllers can't handle high current so you need to connect a SSR to it. For small kilns around 1000W (like mine in the vid) a 16 Amp rated is ok.For bigger kilns around 3000W take 25 Amps rating. You can find most parts on ebay ( the fire bricks are brittle and can break easy, so find a local dealer and ask for good impact protection during shipping) Link to some basic info: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m9RkrMursduoaXU.html

+Roger Jonker I too would also like to see that. Whenever you get the chance, please make a video of making it. I am aware of kanthal wire, because I use it on a daily basis, but never made anything like a kiln using the wire. My RDA's use coils made from Kanthal A1 Resistance wire. I make the coils myself, and am very familiar with resistance, and how to make the wires/coils to a specific resistance.

Would you say this sort of thing is a good method for beginners to make jewellery as opposed to making a mold and casting things with a liquid metal? I'd imagine it is, but have never done either before. Also is there the slightest chance of this process working using an oven instead of a kiln, much like when using oven-bake clay, or will that ruin it somehow? I ask only because the chances of me being able to access a kiln of any kind are low.

@RogerJonker8 жыл бұрын
+dotti calhoun Ther are 2 options The fast way is to desolve all silver waste in nitric acid and cement it out with copper( be sure to burn of all organic binders first)There are instructions videos on how to on youtube.This way you get fine silverpowder back you can use again to make silverclay. The slow but safer way is to melt the it all to a bar and use electrolysing for refining to 999.This is done with sulfuric acid (lead battery acid) in destilled water. The ratio is +- 5% sulfuric acid so its preaty safe.You connect the bar to positive and a stailnlessteel wire to negative. Voltage around 1.5 to 2.2 volts.It takes days / weeks to grow silver crystals. hope it helps.....

I'm not an expert in torch firing, but yes, you have to heat the whole silver item evenly until you see a faint glow. At this point the particles bond together and you see it shrinking in size.
