Thank you for sharing your awesome skills! I have found that titanium wire works great as a pin that won't solder on to the tube because I kept breaking the graphite on the tiny hinges. lol... Very interesting ways you have created gorgeous hinges! You are very creative! :)

@greggreenwood4628 5 ай бұрын

Hello Ty, Yes, titanium wire is great too. Just make sure that it is the correct size for the tubing. This is why I use graphite, so I can ffit the tubing exactly. Thank you very much for your kind comments. Keep watching. Greg Greenwood

Hi Greg, another fantastic video! You're so good at explaining and demonstrating all the steps involved. I emailed you awhile ago and you were kind enough to respond to my questions about balled-end pins for hinges. I watched your videos about how NOT to melt other parts of your piece and was really inspired. I immediately bought some yellow ocher and it worked brilliantly! I was able to construct two ball hinges on a round stone setting to allow it to spin! Thanks so much. Always look forward to your next video 😊

@greggreenwood4628 10 ай бұрын

Hello Lee, Very nice to hear from you! And very nice to hear that you were able to construct the hinges!!!! Hurray. Yes, the yellow ocher does work brilliantly! Thank you so much for watching. If you have any questions, you know were to email. Take care. Greg Greenwood

Hi Greg another very good educational video. I like the bridge method, but I've got to ask what material was it that you used for the king-size demonstration? Regards . . . Andy

@greggreenwood4628 10 ай бұрын

Hello Andy! Thank you very much, I appreciate it. I like both methods. It all depends on the design. As for the material. 14 k gold!! I had some laying around the studio! Talk to you soon. Greg Greenwood

Great vid thanks. They are bit big for a locket though.

@greggreenwood4628 3 ай бұрын

Hello Avian, Thanks for your comments. Yes, these hinges are large for small lockets. Beginners are more comfortable working on larger pieces to learn the basics. Then they can go super small when they have the confidence. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. Greg Greenwood

Of what material are the pins you used on the copper spacers to hold them into place? Thank you. You are my online instructor, and I will begin classes soon.

@greggreenwood4628 10 ай бұрын

Hello Neers, The pins are steel pins from a stationary shop or sewing shop. You can use smaller ordinary pins used in sewing also. I'm glad I can help you and that I'm your online instructor. Best wishes. Keep watching. Greg Greenwood

Hello Bobby, Thank you for watching my video. Yes, it is a large jawed vise. I have modified my regular vise with angle irons for the Foldforming Technique. Watch my 6 part video series on Foldforming. In video Part 1, I explain the use of the oversized jaws. If you have a metal workshop, I think you will be interested in the foldforming technique. It is an interesting way of working metal. Thanks again, and let me know what you think of the foldforming series. Greg Greenwood
