Very detailed info. Thank you!!

Thank you so much for this video. I love the design! Did you create the design or did you download it? Are there any sites you would suggest to find similar themed designs? My family daughter lives in Washington state so I know she would love marine mammal theme.This piece is amazing! love your art.

Great tutorial. Is there a alternative paper to use beside glossy magazine page?

That is so cool.

I love it.

Thank you for sharing!! Is the etching then done with an acid?

Thank you for sharing your craftmanship and for a good tutorial. I´m a 59 year silver- and leather hobbyist and i have doing it for about 4 years now. Now i am going to try etching. My purpose is to make a silver cuff and i have the idea ready and printed on " press n´peel " paper. Also i have the silver sheet ready but i have not pressed the pattern on the sheet yet. My problem is this. I ordered Ferric Nitrate from UK because here in Finland, you are not allowed to buy it as a private person. I ordered it by mistake too little, 200g , and according the manual you get about 0,7 litres from that amount nitrate. I have problem to find a proper dish so that the nitrate solutions surface is high enough to cover the whole cuff that is 18 cm. My question is, does the silver sheet have to be flat or can i bend it round before etching? Thank you for possible answer. 🙏

Can we use baking powder instead of using baking soda for the neutralising solution? Baking soda is almost impossible to find in England unfortunately and I have to do my boss' ring in the next 2 days, so I'm on a bit of a time crunch

Oh Tammy!!! Thank you!😽

In the UK we know denatured alcohol as methylated spirits, or meths.

Thank you! Very detailed and will come in handy when I am ready to go. My copy machine is not working currently after simultaneously running out of paper and getting a paper jam. Ugh!

Evidently there were no problems using easy solder for both joins so close together?

Thank you Tammy!❤

Could you put your container of etchant on plug in mug warmer?

Thank you for this recipe.❤

So in love with this ring - just beautiful! Love your teaching style - so thorough and your calm speaking voice. I am subscribed after just discovering you and looking forward to more videos. Thank you!❤

If I used a wide band ring sizer, will I still need to go up .5 in size?

Can you use Borax cone flux after doing this, i.e. there will not be an adverse chemical reaction?

If you have to anneal 9ct yellow gold a few times, should you pickle after each heat and reapply this boric acid coating?

If you used vinyl on the back, and you have a cricut, then why not use that to cut out your design in vinyl a d use that? Is this way just faster than picking out all the negative space?

Hi Tammy, Great video! thank you Can I ask you how to you pass the image to the metal? thank you again

I’m trying to do this again, it’s been a few years… I’m struggling to get the toner from the paper to the metal (and I have everything except the alcohol is the alcohol absolutely necessary? I’m so frustrated it’s not even funny 😂😅

THANK YOU!!! I was sure my bezel was a goner!! 😅

It looked like your rings had a mirror finish. I was wondering if using the scotchbrite pad and the brass brush cause it to have a satin finish instead? I want to keep a mirror finish.

Great tutorial! I very much appreciated your use of hand tools, rather than extremely expensive equipment that most people can't afford, to construct the ring.

hi, I´ve tried this tutorial, and was great the first time great, but the second time I tried the solution did not work, just engraved so little that when i used the 600 grit sandpaper to polish it a little bit the engraving was so superficial that disappeared... why would that be?

Great tips Tammy, thanks! Are you still doing jewelry? Your tutorials and videos were good! 💟

Is there an equally accurate way to create an image into a stone, with a little depth to the image, but without the whitening aftermath on the onyx? Is there maybe an additional step like a wax, a lacquer or sealant to get rid of that whiteness? I'm thinking maybe the white left behind is an illusion due to loss of sheen from lasering. Is that right? I hope you can provide input on that. Thanks in advance! (Very impressive, btw.)

Brilliant tutorial. Ive learned a lot, tried it, and had great results.

You need to do a better job with your closeups. It was really difficult to see what you were doing.

Really great tutorial. Hope you have got a good mic and muffler now?

Amazing tutorial, thank you so much! Everything you say makes sense. I'm a newbie but I feel I could pull such a ring off! This will be my personal graduation project. Please keep making videos like these, thank you again.

A pain to clean up!

Thank You ;You learn something new every day ! A deburring tool to soften the inner edges of a ring ,who knew !!!

Thank you so so much. I am a beginner and so much appreciate your tip!!!!

Lady, you are a professional jeweler wheather you believe it or not :) This is the best learning I've done in 2023, this style is so me & I'll try this tutorial. Thank you.

is it okay if i use lemon ammonia?

Can I ask a weird question? Why would you not texturize before you soldered? Thank you!

Can this be used for copper & brass or is there a need?

Hi Tammy, thanks for the excellent tutorial and I love your designs! If you have spent feric nitrate solution one step you can take is carefully add sodium hydroxide to a neutral ph. The feric nitrate converts to feric oxide (rust) and you have a much less toxic solution.

This is such an amazing and detailed tutorial. Thank you. I have been taking detailed notes and I am so excited to try making this ring. It will actually be the first ring that I have made, but your instructions are so good that I believe I can do it! 🥰

You can paint the edges of the piece of metal you are etching with a sharpie pen . It can also be used to correct any little places where the resist has lifted or vanished. The way you photograph the video is amazing. Everything is so clear and beautiful to watch. Thanks again

Wonderful video. I love how you explain and show all the details of the work involved. Thank you

Can I use my borax cone flux for flow with this barrier you’re recommending here? Thank you.

Gorgeous! That stone! Maybe set first. Do you can have it held by jet set or something. Then curve the silver.

Gorgeous!!!!! It’s be good to show removing back plate without jewel tool since it’s a beginner series. Gorgeous!!

Cool rings! But, forgot the sticky wax. Like Kate Wolfs sticky wax on a the brand I use. It is the first snd lady thing to do, before drilling! the same wax you use on the end of a small stick or similar, to help put tiny faceted stones in snd out of settings. make a glob of it press it yank it out that’s the first thing and easiest thing should do.

Tammy again I love your videos! You did forget to mention thst the many colors you will see with liver of sulfur (depending on how long you leave it in) those colors don’t last at all. it’s only temporary even if you coated it with a varnish or renaissance wax or anything like that. those colors don’t last more that a little bit. I think if you’re teaching beginners you need to give all the information. I’m sure when you learned about LOL, you learned that. Love the rings!!!

Just finished my first Ukulele using your plan and my glowforge. I am already thinking of making a mold to produce the sides. I laminated Padauk to the living hinge using contact cement. Used the new circular feature to engrave a double helix around the sound hole. It turned out very nice and I am tuning and re-tuning the new Ukulele. Thanks for posting the plans. I will use parts of the curvature to make a series of inner and outer moles to try some steam bent hardwood veneers

Thanks 👍 you help me too much 😊 Dr/ karam from egypt
