Thank you Nikiwe. The comment is much appreciated. The content is only going up from here

Thanks so much, cuz. I'm glad it was useful

It's very wild that our stories are as similar as they are. We gotta keep pushing as much as we can because that's the only way we will reach the promised land. Keep up the grind, bro, you're doing amazing things

I appreciate the love

I'm glad you found valur in the video. Much appreciated

Thanks man

Thanks so much @alejandrogracia4448 much appreciated

True. Jewellery can be whatever you want it to be

Thanks so much. I appreciate the kind words. I would like to see how your 1st sand casting experience is. Please let me know. I have another video where I made a batman ring using sand casting as well, if you want to check it out. It is one of my previous video

Muchas gracias. Me alegra ver gente mirando en Argentina. 😊

Double Danko

Thats very kind of you to say. I am glad you have found some value in the work I do. I appreciate it very much. I'd like to see some videos you make, when the day comes

Thanks so much. I appreciate it

Disain cincin yang cakep

@@SVDIVYA Terima kasih banyak

Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. The polishing machine is a standard polishing machine which I got at a place called goldsmith and jewellery supplies in Johannesburg, South Africa. I don't know what the brand is. I use a "hard" and a "soft" polishing mop. And I use a compound called "unipol" I hope that helps

@@thatoradebe_trj Thank you!

Happy to help!

Thanks so much. There is more to come

Does it flow out when you are pouring the metal?

@@thatoradebe_trj no, at the start just when i pressed that in. I lift the all part and the sand slips out

@@alessandro12171 I think maybe you didn't hammer the sand in enough. You must really give it a good hit all around and then it'll stick to the rings

@@thatoradebe_trj alright thanks. I hope the ring will join the sand even if that is really pressed

The template can be found on www.ganoksin.com. Search for "hollow ring project". Otherwise you can draw the template yourself to make it your own design

That's a great idea, I think I might just do that for a future video

What are you trying to promote?

Glad it was helpful! Please let me know how the project comes out when you are done

Thanks so much. I'm sure you can tell that I was nervous

Hopefully it can be of use to a lot of people

Delft clay. I've never used petrobond. Would you recommend it over delft clay?

@thatoradebe_trj I've never used delft clay. I have heard that it captures the detail better on small jewelry pieces though. I was just curious what you were using. Now that we're getting back into the warmer weather, I plan on getting back to casting. I do need to learn to solder with .999 as some pieces are near impossible to cast.

@@teamSHTF delft clay really does capture the detail well. I'd love to see how petrobond works.

Really? In what way?

@thatoradebe_trj just found your channel. I use my hash tag as a way to comment and find relocate good videos. But since you asked, you would be on the team cause you're 1) a maker and 2) you know the value of precious metals. In a true SHTF scenario, you always need resourceful people. I'll watch more!

@@teamSHTF thanks so much for that. I appreciate it and I'm happy to hear you enjoy my channel

Thank you so much for the comment. It's interesting you say that because I recently made another video where I covered a ring black. It is a very similar ring to this. You can check it out on this link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f62kl7Kqztexg5c.htmlsi=I_Fi2DFwzGJLfDBM

@@thatoradebe_trj Yes, very good, but I meant the other way around, so after you etch it, then you run it on the polisher, and the lines and groves are left, leaving very pronounced marks. But that one looks good too!

@@jjhh8425 I should give it a shot. Thank you

Hi there. Yes, the glue melts off one you heat it up. Super glue is commonly used in jewellery making to temporarily hold things together. I'm glad I motivated you to make one. Please show me when you are done

Thank you so much for the comment, it is much appreciated. That is partly the reason for cutting the wax in half. The main reason is because in order to sand cast you need the 2 sand rings to be separated to remove the wax. If I were to make the entire ring and then separate the rings, the mold would break apart due to the shank (the part where your finger goes through) breaking through the sand

Thank you so much for the kind words. I am so glad that my work is appreciated even in Texas

Thanks so much. Check out my latest video. I think you'll like the finish on that ring too

Hello. It's bleach. It oxidizes the metal which turns it black. Another alternative is liver of sulphur

Do you mean sand casting to create a gemstone out of metal of sand casting a jewellery piece that has gemstones?

@@thatoradebe_trj casting a jewellery piece that has gemstones. Casting the stones in place.

@@bruno-hc4kg Unfortunately no I don't have experience doing that with sand casting. I can do it with lost wax casting though

I'm using a pair of tweezers and some burs in the hanging motor

I agree

Thank you so much

Glad you think so. I was hoping for artistic

its a process called soldering. It is similar to welding

The powder is called borax. It helps to keep the metal clean and to help with the flow of the metal when pouring

Thank you so much for the sub, much appreciated. Yes you would be able to make a curb link using sand casting. It will take some time but it's possible. As long as you make 1 good curb link so that you can use it to make multiples, you are good

@@thatoradebe_trj sorry I mean curb ring Thanks

@@Elites-asthetic I must've read your comment wrong but the same concept applies for a curb ring

@@thatoradebe_trj ok buddy I did ask someone else but they say because more detail and holes it can’t be done But looking at so many different designs now I feel it can be done depending on the person and the way it’s done If I put a curb ring on a steel cylinder tube and print it down on the sand for the actual imprint Then replace the steel cylinder with one made of sand and place that in the print I think this way it will work

😅

Thank you

Grazie mille

Thank you so much

Thank you Rakgadi wa bana. I'm sure you will keep it safe.

That sounds good to me. I'll make sure I make one in the near future. Thank you for the suggestion

Hi there. Thank you very much for the kind words. Yes it is possible for you to buy the ring. I can have it couriered to you. Do you know your ring size?

@@thatoradebe_trj I have contacted you at your website e-mail address. Best regards

Much appreciated, thank you
