- By the end of this video you should be able to know the technique on how to solder a gold filled jewelry, by making this earrings.
For you who aren’t familiar with gold filled, it is a composite metal with a thin layer of gold mechanically bonded to a base metal. It's more durable and cost-effective than solid gold, while providing a similar gold appearance.
When you play with gold filled, you can put away your sand paper, be extra careful when forging the wire, and don’t point the fire for too long.
Tools:
Flat nose pliers,
Round nose pliers
Flush cutters.
Three steps pliers
Cross peen hammer
Rawhide Mallet and
Anvil
The tools for soldering are:
2 Cross lock tweezers
Third hand
Borax stone
Unglazed Dish
14K gold solder paste
Pickle Solution
Torch
Copper Thong
Solder block
Titanium pick
Tweezer

Hello and thank you for sharing your expertise in soldering GF. There are not many videos online about this.
But I have a question for you. I notice that you don’t use gold solder chips, but regular paste solder. Doesn’t that leave a gray/silver color behind, and how do you get that off of the gold jewelry piece, or not let it show?
Oh, and one more question. You are right about GF scratching easily. Can you link where to buy some good nylon pliers that you tend to use that work well? Do you use round nose, flat nose and chain nose plastic covered pliers?
Thanks in advance!
@@Ilovejewelry06 thanks so much 😄 the 14k gold paste solder normally has the same quantity of gold as the chip, the difference is the paste has some flux included in it. But then it depends on the brand I think. For the pliers brand I have pairs of beadsmith and Lindstrom that I use all the time. And to prevent from scratching normally just cover it with ductape 😅 it works. But then I don't do that with my Lindstrom. Hey Goodluck please let me know the result 😄😄😄
Ah, ok. I didn’t know your paste solder was 14k gold paste solder! I’ve never seen this before. I thought your solder was the regular kind that you use with silver, etc. I don’t think I’ve seen this at Rio. Where do you get it, and do you like it better than the 14k soldering chips?
I just thought that the yellow gold soldering chips would match the color of the gold filled better. (Have not tried this at all yet; still very afraid!)
Hi! I have question. How do you protect your earring post tips after cutting and filing them?
@@aki4587 hi good question. The tip of the post is so small that you can almost ignore it if it change color. I suppose the manufacturer of goldfilled are matching the color of the base metal too.. So I don't see any difference so far..
@@SiebijouxI see! Thank you!🥰
@@aki4587 you're welcome. Please tag me if you make one 😀✨
Thank you. where did you get the solder, please
@@lizmathyssen6462 it's better to look at the spec and try to find it on the internet. I think it's 14k gold solder paste can be a good keyword for search
