Good morning Chad ! Thanks so much ! Very useful video. I usually put solder underneath the piece so that solder gets sucked up into it. Many roads to Rome I guess. Best wishes,

Nice! I do like the looks of a pendant with the tube bail. It was easier than I expected. Thank you for sharing.

Great job, Chad. Now, how do I make those teeny tubes, used for hinges, etc?

Hehe! You probably could using a tubing draw plate, but it would be kind of a pain:). I just buy premade small tubing:)

I had to figure out how to make my own tubing and I love your video because it just confirms that I’m doing it correctly!! I would have never found you until KZfaq recommend you to me. Do you have a Instagram page or a business Facebook page? I’m a professional silversmith teacher and designer. I noticed that you have a large amount of people watching your videos but they are not clicking on what’s important the actions button. By all means I am not trying to tell you how to run your KZfaq page but I’ll think you have some excellent videos and if you do have an Instagram page really start promoting your KZfaq page on Instagram and from there you can create a business Facebook page and I believe without even having a personal page if you don’t want one of those. You know I signed up with Facebook back in 2008 and to be honest with you I’ll regret it. And finally I got involved with Instagram and I started blowing up with my business Facebook pages. I’m just trying to help you to get people to start following you or liking your videos maybe you need to be more aggressive because that’s where you’re gonna grow and if you’re interested in making money through KZfaq that’s what you need to do. I would personally on Instagram and I already do this I kinda give teasers on Instagram and I tell them if they want to watch the full video it will be on KZfaq. Which I am still in the process of creating my KZfaq channel. I have some goals said before I actually publish my KZfaq channel but I want to have at least two weeks of footage done for my KZfaq channel so I can stay ahead of myself. I’m not gonna give you my Instagram account on your personal feed because I think it’s disrespectful but we can always communicate through your email if you list a business email through KZfaq. Anyway I wanna watch a couple more of your videos but I think you’re gonna do really good if you just get a little bit more aggressive and if you get offered to do in a paid advertisement you need to jump on that... Take Care, Autumn Michelle
