If you're buying a vise for doing work like this, look at wood working vises. Mine has countersunk provisions for screwing wood on to the face from behind. I have soft wood on mine and it works amazingly well for anything i don't want to mar up. I've also custom carved pieces for specific applications in the vise

@WeBuildStuff 2 ай бұрын

I don't see why not! I've driiled holes in the spoon end and attached fishing hardware in the past

Hi. Great videos. Can you only use silver spoons, or can you use stainless steel as well. Thank you. Claire.

@oidi Ай бұрын

stainless steel cutlery works fine too. Be carefull with the thickness of the piece though, as they are a lot harder to bend and takes time to get perfect roundness. Also, if you are using a really cheap ring bender, the stainless steel could possibly cause the ring bender to fail & break.

@@oidi thank you for replying.

@@moniregb5682 your more than welcome, also wanted to give a quick tip, especially when using stainless steel, make sure you have the sized length of cutlery your using flat to the bottom of the nylon die when bending, becuase if you dont, after bending all around, it will be warped, and stainless steel is very unforgiving when trying to correct it ;)

Do u recomend any other bending tools that are not so expensive and work well ?

@WeBuildStuff 7 ай бұрын

You can find cheaper versions on Amazon/wish/alibaba. I do not have experience with those

@emilymilano1239 7 ай бұрын

hey there, do you recommend a certain vice or will most vices do?

@WeBuildStuff 7 ай бұрын

Buy what fits your space. We use Irwin vices as they are what is available at our local stores a.co/d/boumywT I prefer a 4-5" vice myself for personal use

@catherinemartina6469 4 ай бұрын

Are the spoons you use silver or silver plated. Also do you anneal the metal before you bend?

@WeBuildStuff 4 ай бұрын

The ones shown in this video are all cheap plated souvenir spoons

How do I make different sizes?? Size 6,7.5, 8.5, etc. or is it assumed you just take the closest sized dye??

@WeBuildStuff 4 ай бұрын

I wouls change your die size and use a ring mandrel to make it perfect. Of course many of the "pro-commenters" will probably say something different to do with industry standards but if the end product works then I say good enough!

In our ring bending kit there’s a parallelogram what is it used for ?

@WeBuildStuff 5 ай бұрын

Sharp bends. Don't snap the die or press too hard!

What do you do for cleaning? What price should you be paying for spoons?

@WeBuildStuff 2 ай бұрын

At the moment we just sand to a high grit a polish with red polish compound until they feel smooth. I try to get donated spoons for the classroom or buy in bulk from thrift shops

@alfonsedente9679 5 күн бұрын

You can steal a spoon, which makes it free. .25 cents in a goodwill store. $200 from Tiffany's. Cleaning is the same method for a spoon (even though it looks like a ring, its still a spoon. MAGIC!)

@otterlycharmingUSA 9 ай бұрын

In case you don't know where you went wrong, ring sizing is based on gauge (the thickness of the metal). You needed to use a ring sizing chart that showed your metal by gauge so you can cut the length accordingly.

@WeBuildStuff 9 ай бұрын

Link a chart for others to see please. This was day 2 playing with this tool and just a quick intro for kids so they don't destroy the equipment within the first week. Making the rings perfect will take some practice but for now it's been fun to play with.
