Thank you so much for this helpful video! I have been searching for months for this - and your video was exactly what I was looking for ! Straight forward no fluff - love it. Please keep them coming as I am a total newbie to the art of metal work. You’ve earned a loyal subscriber
I thanks for this video!! I’m in a metalsmith class for jewelry now, and was wondering how gold filled worked. I wish you could have zoomed in on the placement of the solder, but I think I got the concept…
I’m seeing an orangey hue near the solder joint after it’s oxidized for about a day or so. I’ve been using the lowest heat possible before the solder melts, using boric acid with denatured alcohol and a high quality flux from rio grande. I can’t figure out why this keep happening. I can’t figure out if I’m over polishing? I can wipe off the orange hue but then it reappears soon after.
I have my steady seller bracelet and stressed out if the jump ring that attaching charm will come off. Please let me know. I saw it’s 50\50 ratio of two things. So it’s homemade?
Thank you for that great video. I will try it soon. I still have some troubles with soldeirng gold filled. Do you have any other tips working with gold filled?
Thank you for this video 🙏🏼 I have an enquiry. The jump rings that I have bought are 24kt gold filled brass. Would this same process work? Looking forward to your reply. Many thanks 🙏🏼
Hi, I want to make the barrier flux, but do you use denatured alcohol of 75%, 80% or 98%? I don’t want my tabel to catch fire, because I use the wrong percentage. Thankyou✨
It won't matter; you burn off the alcohol with a quick touch of your torch prior to the actual soldering. Just make sure you have no open containers of it near your flame. :)
If you've turned it red, you've brought the brass core to the surface and the only way out of that is to sand it, which then risks destroying your gold layer. The best way to work with GF is to cover the entire piece in the barrier flux, burn off the alcohol and then solder quick and hot. I use 14K gold solder.

I have tiny excessive solder on the thin ring I made. How do I remove? Is it ok to use file? Thank you!

This video is great- thank you so much!
What kind of chips are you using for the solder?
Thank you so much for the video, what's the name of the yellow flow solder?? Where can I get it?
Thanks! It's a clear tutorial! Is the 'hard 'variety of the yellow silver solder the best for this job?

Hi, thank you for the video.
If the piece gets red how can I fix It?❤️

Do you sell them like this?
Hi, do you offer any classes? Also where do you suggest to get the materials?
Hi, do the solder tarnish or change colour?
Use 14K gold solder. Less problems with tarnish.

Did you make the barrier flux? Can’t find at any shop.
You can make it at home. It's a 50/50 mix of denatured alcohol and dry boric acid granules.
