NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE BUT I'M SO BORED WITH THE SOUTHWESTERN SILVER STUFF...I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE INDIVIDUALISM AND ARTISTICNESS OF THIS JEWELRY...I WAS GETTING DEPRESSED LOOKING BUT NOW I'VE FOUND YOU! 💚
Thanks, I will be getting back into my art and will probably make more videos soon.
You are the boss! I love the magic of fusing !
Very cool! AND a very cool cuff you're wearing!
game changer!!! thank you! I'm subscribed now!
What is the center sheet you are using in this video? Will silver sheet work with this method or should it be titanium WIRE AND SHEET? Great job and give us more videos!
Is your automatic riveting punch a center punch that has had the redesigned to make it round or is it a special kind of automatic punch that I can buy somewhere?
Thank you for sharing this! Does this work with .925 sterling, or just Argentium and fine silver?
Where is the demonstration ffs
It’s an advertisement for a video workshop I sell on Podia. There is a link in the description. It took me years to master what I do and teach and a month to make the video workshop, so I do charge for the info; FFS.
Thank you. I really need to get to them.
I really like your video brother
Can ypu do the same with 96% indian silver?
i feel like anyone capable of actually using rivets to secure pieces of metal together can also modify a center punch in the exact same way you have. folk have been making rivets like this forever, but it's frankly ingenious to modify the automatic center punch, and other punch into a hammer and anvil. like, you don't have a 'system' or anything, just a neat tool mod. i'd share those ideas freely rather than try to sell them to novice jewelers that don't know better.
Thanks for sharing your perspective, but I think I’ll keep my perspective.
Your work is dangerous. 😮
lol, I know what you mean about making videos; thanks for the outtakes. It makes me feel better with my meagre attempts
Make Cutler rivets. On the exposed side of the river solder a design compatible w/the design of the bracelet, a flower, star, bird, eagle, ECT. Make tools for compressing the rivets together from long needle nose pliers.
Your work is beautiful
Amazing. Thank you.
Your work is gorgeous.
Your work is gorgeous. Have you considered making sterling silver beer steins? Nothing too fancy but made out of silver that can actually be used on a daily basis? May I have your website ? Thank you
No, never considered anything that large.
Great video and amazing craftsmanship!
Can you make a video on how you made that riveting punch???
No, most people wouldn’t have the expensive tools I use to make them. Also I sell them, not currently but I will get back to them eventually.
i love to fuse...i find it therapeutic...in your opinion, can your techniques be applied to sterling silver?
I am so happy to have found you here!...I have been a huge fan of your work since you came on the scene years ago...we met in Tuscon via SLK (i am sure you don't remember), and I was so shy and nervous...it's nice to see you on a personal level as i was never able to take a workshop with you this platform seems terrific!...blessings to you and your journey!
I’m not sure if I remember you due to the tenny tiny profile pic of you on TH-cam. I have seen people fuse with traditional Sterling but it looked a bit rougher. However recently I found Nichole Ringold and I think she fuses fantastically with Sterling.
Wow that was super cool!!
Your work is so gorgeous and unique and nothing like I have ever seen!❤
Are there more videos then 5?
Your work is so artistic and beautiful. Thank you for being a great teacher and inspiration.
Stupid question, but how do you drill the holes on an already curved piece of copper?
Thank you so much for the outtakes…I hate my failures and often don’t try new things for fear of it. It helps so much seeing a master screw up too😉
Everything on your site is sold out.
What made that attempt fail? What flux do you use? Gorgeous work and you are so calm and relaxed. Just a joy to watch you work!❤
Thank you Robert. I am very happy to subscribe. Thank you for sharing!
Where was the solder used to fuse the border to sheet?
Love that Guano Loco sign.
Luv the outtakes ❤❤❤
Why would anybody try this technique after seeing all the mistakes you made at the end of the video?? Doesn't seem very foolproof😂
I invite you to tic Tok vids too // your videos are great 👍
Can one do as much color using copper ? Curious.
Bahaha
You did a great job.
Cool. Can't wait to buy a class
I only have the yellow benzomatic // is it not hot enough? Also can I use any other surface other than a charcoal block? Ty
I can't get over your work. The second one is incredible
You gave me hope in myself again 😉
Ty Mr. Lopez
So sorry. Can I fuse copper ? Curious or mixing metals ? Ty
Gorgeous
Ty 😊
Crawling. Lol
I haven't seen anything this pretty
