I have seen a lot of great vids, as i am just starting out, and i made my folding cones out of a couple of 4 way lug wenches, and have a good selections of size. i cut them off the end of the of the four ways and they work GREAT!
Hi Martin, Just got your steel folding cones, and rubber polishing kit. I have to say the stainless cones are SUPERB, I can stretch faster, more accurate, and with lithium grease, so smooth, they make the process a lot easier, and therefore I have the confidence to make more expensive, and desirable rings.I intend to make a dedicated polishing station for the rubber chucks, to remove the ribbed edge, when needed and to polish also, will post a video when I finish the machine. Keep up the great work. All the best. Stu n Caz.
Thanks Stu, so glad that you like these new folding cones! They're such a major improvement to the coin ring-making community as they will not wear out; unlike the weaker light brown-colored folding cones out there made out of phenolic; a material that WILL wear out.
Hi, great informative videos, I have your folding dies and old style folding cones, SUPERB !!!!!. Just one point, could you make a half set,,,small and large. In UK the larger cones are un-used, I make Half Crowns regularly and only use the two smaller cones. Great work many thanks, keep up the great videos. Stu n Caz. X.
Hello, did you post a video a few weeks back about adding reeds to the cut edge? I saw a video about this pop up on my TH-cam feed but it seems to have been taken off of TH-cam. I've had multiple customers of mine ask if this was possible and I'd be very interested to see if anyone has accomplished it in the past. Love your products, they definitely make it easier to turn out a quality ring. Thanks. -Tilton
Hey Tilton, thanks for the compliments! Yes, I did a video on the topic of putting reeds onto the punched edge, which you can see below: th-cam.com/video/HBp6ufQcEA4/w-d-xo.html You can go to my Shop page at: CoinRingUSA.com to find the Re-REEDer die tool; but I am sold out at the moment. I should have them restocked in about a week, thanks!
Hello, how are you? I'm Brazilian, from Rio de Janeiro, I'm watching your video and I'm interested in making rings of old coins, but for this I need to have proper tools, if you can help me, what tools should I buy and where can I buy, could you tell me which site Where should I find these tools? Thank you, Fernando
Hi Fernando, you'll need at least a way to punch a hole into the center of your coin, some folding cones, and some reduction dies. You can visit my shop page at: CoinRingUSA.com for tools, and my blog site at: CoinRingBlog.com for tips. Let me know if that helps!
Thank you for replying to me, I have to drill the coin, files, dremel with all the tools, could you tell me which of these I should buy them, send them to Brazil? Thank you, Fernando
Thanks Gene! I wouldn't say that the Stainless Steel cones provide more stability over the previous cones that were made out of a polymer based material, it's mainly that these new cones won't develop groove marks in them and ultimately wear out. Some folks have also noted that it seems to allow them to fold their coins down with better accuracy... that's a good thing! ;-)
One thing I learned just today adjust your arbor press to take the play out of the ram! Didn't no it for a month perfect folds now great video😇

Which machine do you suggest to print the coin, could you name it?

Martin, terrific new tools! Do the new cones provide more stability than the plastic cones? If so, how? Thanks. - Gene
