    Thank you so much. I'm a beginner and I think I can actually make these chains! If you haven't already, please make a video about how to finish the chains to add a clasp of some type. Thanks again!

    Can't believe I missed this one, Nolan. Yes, love to see how you do end caps and very interested in more chai and other technique videos. This is the first time I have watched a double foxtail chain being put together and actually understood where the third link went. Thanks heaps.

    I'm wondering what size mandrel you used for the 24 gauge double? Or better yet, how can I determine the mandrel size based on the wire gauge for the double?

    @t0rb1naalborg44 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you! Real nice; tempo, zoom, in focus, commenting and flow.
    Tools: you put links to Riogrande, but I miss the link to parralel plier you use to compress chain with.
    I have never seen a parralel plier where the jaws are 'forced' to stay parralel like that.
    My pliers tends to get unparralel.

    Brilliant, thank you. I am a beginner so this is helpful. Can I add a pendant and charms to both the chains? I like seeing you use different tools, I also like the simplistic approach. That was great you showed me how to properly make jump rings too.

  • @DewdropsAndBlueberries
    @DewdropsAndBlueberries ปีที่แล้ว

    Amazing! What do you think would be the smallest diameter you could make like this, by hand? I have seen these being sold online as thin as 1mm, but I think that would be impossible...how thin do you think would be in the realms of possible?

  • @ladykay8
    @ladykay8 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    For the 24 gauge chain, what internal diameter did you use on the rings? This was a great vid.

    • @meredithnavin1358
      @meredithnavin1358 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      My guess would be 7.5mm.
      To get the aspect ratio of a jump ring, you use the equation
      Aspect Ratio (AR) = Inner Diameter (ID)/Wire Diameter (WD)
      So for his big links, the guage is 0.8mm and the inner diameter is 12mm.
      AR=12/0.8
      AR=15
      24 guage is approximately 0.5mm
      15=ID/0.5
      15 x 0.5 =7.5mm

    • @RaftarkJewelry
      @RaftarkJewelry  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For the white gold chain I am working on I made rings with a 6mm internal dimension in 28g round. It has worked perfectly so far! When drawn, the chain is about 1.5mm thick

      Possible? I suppose technically possible, but it would be a very fragile chain and likely significantly more work to form the links
