I have a 6 inch king Cab. Where can I get a “spitter.”

That marker tip is EXCELLENT, I’m a newbie to lapidary but a life-long crafter who’s used that trick for other craft applications and I don’t know why it never occurred to me to try it for lapidary work! Thank you sir, fantastic instructional - your wisdom and insight are much appreciated!

I agree with vapermom! Wonderful demonstration of professional wire work. Would it be possible to share your source for the wire? Best spool size and proportions Ive seen.

Hi, Micah. Thanks for the great videos. What temp do you have the heat press at?

I learned more in this one video than the other 150 jewelry wrapping videos that I've watched before it. No other video explained why things are done, were as meticulous about explaining sizing between wires, measuring, putting the bezel flat in the back, the use of a knife, how tape can be used to help in so many ways, etc. Thank you for being a truly wonderful teacher! PS: I love how you talk to your jewelry!

This is just brilliant! I'm new to all of this silver smithing business, but I do some rockhounding whenever I get a free minute, and just this weekend I bought a second hand lortone trim saw and a lortone cabochon grinder with expandable drums, to work some magic on my rocks. After a quick google search on setting stones, I realised that I'm gonna have to do this myself, and now here I am. So grateful that I found this video so soon into my journey of learning. Thank you!

Please excuse me if this is a dumb question, but why bother with spending much time at all cleaning up the back? Is this for jewelry where the back might be visible? I'm thinking of lapel pin and bracelets, where the back of the stone is glued to the metal and is completely obstructed from view. In this case don't you just need to remove the wax crudely, or is there some other reason for running it up to/through 600+ grit?

Ok not to be mean but your giving way to much information and not staying on topic. Your talking down to people and the fact that you didn't pick up on that during the editing of this video is telling. Before you get offended and think that you didn't, here's an example of what I mean "its hard to pick things up from a flat surface"

He is not talking down to people. His audience ranges from beginners to more advanced. As a teacher, you cannot assume that everyone know the basics. Also, the way he did it was not offensive. I happen to like all of the additional information.
@vapermom3 ай бұрын
*you're giving *too much We all make mistakes. You didn't pick up on your spelling mistakes before posting & normally I wouldn't have pointed them out, but when you criticize someone else, you leave yourself open to criticism. Maybe he always talks as if his class is filled with beginners or maybe he was nervous. It doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things because he shared a vast wealth of knowledge in a short period of time & I, for one, am grateful for that.
@vapermom3 ай бұрын
BTW, you also used the wrong "your" (it should have been ,"you're") in the sentence, "Your talking down to people..." which is telling me that you probably always make this mistake.
