this actually has common tools unlike other videos lol :D
"I'm just gonna slap this on my ring mandrel"
Literally lmao 19 bucks at Home Depot for a husky file set and good to go
Yeah a couple vids I've seen some dude had "common tools" in his title and was using a God damn power hammer and cnc machine
@Alexandra Chico bot
Sure, but who wants to file a nut until retirement age when you can go buy that tool in the video to speed it up?
Cool ring. Hey could you tell me what kind of energy drink you used to sand and polish that ring so quickly? You must be must really popular with the ladies.
“I am the clit commander!” 😂
He's methed up 😬😏
Very good job and just using common tools you know we don't all have fancy workshops with all the latest tools you done a great job
Here’s a tip for anyone trying this on their own, turn the nut 90 degrees in the vice and do all the filing sideways. This will keep the nut from bending/distorting if you clamp it too hard if your nut is made from a softer metal like brass. Being able to have the nut tightly gripped will also help if you’re running into problems with it moving as you are filing
I liked the idea so much I made one out of a brass nut from a faucet I replaced. Took a couple hours to make, but at least I was at work when I did it.
Turned out quite nice.
Even got a couple complements on it.
Thanks for the cool idea .
I left the threads in my ring so it will stay on my finger more securely. I twist the ring onto my finger and then torque it to 30 inch-pounds.
Yes, I have a little wrench that clicks when tightened
I have one of those my dads friend made him 40 years ago. Wont fit my finger so i keep it on my keychain in memory of my dad and his friend... Glad to see people still making them..
Yeah it's a lost art & also credit to TH-cam that we got to see the process of its making
About 18 years ago I turned a socket wrench part from craftsman into a knights ring, the round part of the socket. I've seen rings like it in the stores from $100 to $200. I tryed to polish it with cloth for a couple of years 😋.(I worked 3rd shift and didn't get the rest that I needed thanks to some step "kids".) Years later I finally got it polished right. I used different emry cloths and then once a week I would use auto polish for chrome.Then I would use silver polish on it and then buff it with an old sock. Now it shines brightly in the sun. I also do this for my swords and knives. 😀
Although the music was shit, the video was very interesting and I can’t wait to try it out. Thank you for the inspiration
Ohhhhh yeah! i want to start making jewlery for the first time and it seems that I found the right project to take on!
thank you~!!!
This is my favorite passed time! I love to make rings out of nuts! The key is to get your nuts inside something ring shaped to get them the shape you want.
With a little patience almost anything can be made with Files
Dude, that is absolutely gorgeous and I just want to congratulate you on having way more patience than I do.... though I now kinda want to try this myself (goes looking for files and a good bench vise)
This video got my like right away because using a file for something like that must have been a huge pain and no belt sander as well extra pain
Love it. Great work. I've seen other ring makers so this using a dremel tool. I like watching yours so much more. The only other video I have seen that is een remotely as cool is one where they forge a nut into a ring.
What is this comment section??? People complaining about the music, people saying their rings are better, people asking what tools to use when they clearly are shown in the video
Eero Tihtonen but what are the name of the tools
@@kodabear2270 Man I don't teally know :/ I think a file and a saw and sandpaper?
dude lol I seen 1 comment saying that "my ring is better" and only one who is asking for tools, but a lot of people complain about the music, so you read 2 comments and decided that
It said I can have 0 t Ngfull advantais 100 word, a file, sandpaper and a hacksaw and possibly metal polish
Hey koss I made 3 of those rings and sell them to my classmates thanks for sharing your skill
Great video. I do have one concern though: I would have liked to see you finishing the inside edges of the ring. If someone were to follow your video, they may not realize with all of the work of sanding that you were doing, it would leave a razor edge if not dealt with.
this dude got tired making this , and he got a good looking peace of art , good work sir!!
When I got up this morning making a ring wasn't even in my top 50 of things that I wanted to do... now its like number 3... this is gonna happen this week.
Very cool. If people only knew how much time it takes they would appreciate their jewelry even more :)
SkullJewelry.com I payed for it
My eye : Did you see it?
My brain : Yes. I think we can do this
My hand : *YOU CRAZY GUYS*
my wallet: *hell no*
I made one by myself and give it to my boyfriend he was so happy and surprised what I have done 🤗
Thank goodness this video is sped up to x200. Otherwise we'd still be watching.
This is really common tools you're using and it turn out beautifully handmade ring,well done:))
thanks
this video is nice mate i started selling rings for 10 pounds then i bought power tools and then just builded my brand op now im selling rings up to 100 to 200 pounds
I make the rings to and selling them but I don’t know a good place too sell them yet
Instagram bro
how long did this take in real time
Black Dynamite about 2-3hours
Awesome work.
Using a softer Brass nut of the same size would likely speed the filing/cutting process up somewhat. Also, consider using some cutting fluid when cutting with the hacksaw, it'll make cutting a lot easier, and swill some of the steel chips out of the way, stopping any wandering.
Also, use pieces of bicycle inner tube to secure stuff in vice jaws to stop your work from slipping. 🤙
Thanks for the tips! Will be using these for sure
@@med8615 For precise, delicate sanding too, look up sanding sticks either on ebay, or at a local model making store. 👍
@@jimmyrustler8983 a decent seeming human being on TH-cam. 👍🏽
Koss.... Outstanding.. incredible!! Terrific job and beautiful craftsmanship! How many hours did this take you??
Plot twist:he actually did it in this time and is the flash
this looks exactly like the ring my grandfather made before he died and he gave it to me. Obviously he made it years before this video but it still is crazy how much it looks like his ring
Yeah I lost the same ring but mine was sterling and from Mexico...
Here i am at 00:55 with school starting in a few hours watching a random man create a ring out of a bolt. Makes sense😂
A nut not a bolt
He can make a ring from a nut. my dad can make a disappointment out of a nut
damn. 😞
Very nice you have made with common tools that's good
That nut never had a chance!!😄 Good job!!
Beautifully made. Keep doing the good work.
I'll make this from nut with ordinary earing, to ring of my daugther, because you inspired me
Congratulations on your patience
Leo Electronix he deserves a prize aye 😂
once you file out the inside... its done.
I say well done to get that quality by hand shows talent and I have no doubt you can use power tools just as well. Kids with a vice and simple tools could give it a crack. 🇦🇺👍
My god people like to complain 😅 nice work bud
True ay it’s a TH-cam video get over ya self guys
Hi. You should've left the inside last so you'll have a smaller surface to work on. 😀
That is pretty cool , keep up the great work and thanks for sharing . Cheers
what made me really wondered the brightness in finishing!! unbelievable !!!
this is a real artist
really nice work,it came out really beautiful!!!
I gotta hand it to you. That first minute was IMpressive.
This was a project everyone did in 8th grade shop class - using only hand files. It was actually pretty cool.
Thanks for that project. For how much will that ring go now please?
Beautiful ring and true craftsmanship. I believe the point of this video is to show you can make beautiful things without power tools - like its been done for thousands of years before electricity came along. If the electricity were gone forever THIS man could still earn a living. All you power tool guys would be on welfare. grin
That's Nuts!
Him: *starts video off by filing by using filer*
Me: *looks across workbench at dremel with file bit*
Him: *rubs on sandpaper*
Me: *Looks again at dremel*
Him: *cuts sides using file*
My dremel: *sweats aggressively*
And yes I understand the title says “Common tools” it’s just a joke
Dude my go to would be that Dremel in an instant... Save all that speed you chowed down on for after the ring is built
How many time it's take's to complete this work
Awesome work. What size nut is that?
Can you detail the different grits you went through? I'm trying to get a higher shine on my own ring.
Hi @Koss. What grits of sandpaper did you use here and what did you end up using for the final polishing step? Thanks
I would say from 500 to 2000 or maybe even 300 with that shine
Looks awesome I'm looking for things to try on my down time at work and this is perfect
The finishing is incredible.
How long did you work on that ?
TY. Haven't tried that yet. Made rings out of spoons coins tokens washers bamboo various other woods - metal
Wow, never knew you could make a RING from a NUT. Quick question tho, how'd you get it to be solid in the first place.
Улыбнуло. В юности в 90-х делали так же. Прям ностальгия.
at the first cut i was like, JO your marking is almost the same wide as the nut - where do you cut?! left or right of it? correct - in the "middle"
A nice hack you can do to speed the filing portion in the beginning use a file with a handle that can be removed and put the tang in the chuck of a power drill. That way you don’t have to spend 20 minutes or better doing that saw motion with your shoulder while also rotating the file.
It'd have to be a round file but i dont see why that wouldnt work.
Im actually going to attempt this using a dremel although ill probably use the hacksaw for the parts he did.
Would it have made sense to normalize it first? I'm not sure if a nut is hardened or not but if it id then a quick normalization followed by a heat treat after may be smart. Great video though!
You can also buy brass and stainless nuts to use. Brass looks good.
Thanks for the video, I would have liked to have seen annotations of the tools.
He put in the work and hours 🕐🕑🕒🕓🕔🕕🕖🕗🕘🕙
How many hours you take to make this? Greatings from Brazil!
thats a stunning ring
I also made a ring like that, but how can you prevent it from rusting on the surface? After a few days, on mine,appear a very thin layer of rust and I don't know how to prevent it from happening. Beautiful ring anyway
this one in the video maded from stainless steel nut
Apply some nail polish sometimes it helps
Heat treat it mate and tip it on oil
Heat them up untill they glow a dull red. Hot but not really hot.
Then throw it in a metal container of used motor oil. Just hope it doesent catch fire. Do it outside.
The minerals in the oil will make the metal have a nic
e petina.
You will have to polish it back to metal as it will be black. But the metal will be hardened and wont rust.
0:53 was that sandpaper? Just curious. Cuz I'm actually going to try this
Most likely sandpaper wrapped around a pencil or dowel to smooth out the inside
Ya it looks like sandpaper around a dowel or thick pencil
What about the first part, it just looked like a metal rod to me?

I imagined four of these welded together with a support on the bottom to make steel knuckle dusters. Of course you could always pour them too.
Very effective knuckle dusters.
The speed of those hands!! 😮😮😁
Verry nice, an inspirational peice for shure, thanks for the vid. Keep up the good work!
Respect, bro your fucken patience you bought my respect
Very Nice work
I would love to have that ring.
Well done. Your skills with hand tools are so valuable. All these "use power tool" comments are by people who have no base skills. Fools.
Try drilling a hole in a chunk of timascus (steel/titanium) to make a ring with a peice of sandpaper in less than a week... then we’ll see who’s the real fool, power tool users our people like you
TopHat Videos Inc. Are you all there mate? What is the title of this video? Is he making a ring from timascus? No. Read the title and reply accordingly. Jesus you people are cooked...
Cool job - what saw did you use? I've got a bench grinder but wanted to try it by hand first.
What kind of sand papers were used ?
Dude, GREAT job!!!
Thumb up for common tools, these are really (relatively) common than those grinders/drills/lathe/hightech-shits-that-i-dont-even-know-their-name in a lot of "hand made" videos. But how to keep the ring from rusting (if the nut is not stainless)? My hand sweats and I can even made coins rust if I don't wipe them after touching.
use a stainless steel nut
You can electrocoat it with stainless steel or even silver. You would only need a plastic container, common water, salt, a 9volt battery and wires and it works perfectly. I have electrocoat many things with stainless steel, zinc and even copper, it's simple, easy, cheap and the results are amazing!
It's kinda like a single finger knuckle duster. Looks awesome
Question is how did you keep it from rusting? My first one rusted when I wore it for 5 minutes
GREAT JOB, NICE/FUN MUSIC!!
Even though it's steel, using water to wet sand would really make it shine, however using oil and sanding sheets would make it glisten and fill in/ take out any fine scratches. Just FYI.
patrick mcglone what kind of oil
How long did it took u to make it
dirty hands ; Clean job😎👏
I liked your video it's was awesome and you made it buy hand no use of machine it was awesome
Jesus Christ man. Buy a belt sander. Thats just torture.
Common tools man...common tools...some people cant afford belt sander
“I’ve been sanding this nut for 84 years…”
@@KopiKucengA metal file that doesn't go dull after demolishing half of that nut should cost you about the same as a working used bench grinder, and if you're lucky, a small belt sander. A McDonald's meal nowadays costs you more than both tbh.
One ring to rule them all
Beautiful and good work
You diserve tons of like
Everything is made from hand
Wow man You r awsm!!!!!!!👌👌👌👌
If you make another one put wood in the clamp to hold the nut and it will not mar up the edges
You wouldn't have to slice off any of it if you use a jam nut. Also stainless steel won't rust.
Brass jam nuts are good to use for this.
Ferb, I know what were going to do today
Decapitate fascists okno
@@arielatom3481 yesir, down with antifa
What size nut did you start off with?
Patricia DelMercado one that fit his finger so he wouldn't have to do extra work to size it
This was very inspirational, I Just Made one myself
How did it went?
How long doe it take?
Made one it took about a day and a half
@Koss can you tell me what sand paper you used please :)
I think 400, 800 and 1200 Grit. You should be able to get that at any hardware store.
TOP TIP: "Buy a drill bit the size of your finger...then you can make a ring out of virtually anything.
