It's been a journey for sure 🥰 But I'd do it all again in a heartbeat. Oh, it would've been so nice to be able to fix some mistakes I made along the way 😀 Thank you so much for being here for so long! It means the world to me
Thank you so much for the time you took to make this video. I had a class I loved in high school way back in the 90s. Im at a point where I want to get back into it because it’s something I really enjoyed. This video helps❤
Im living in Dublin but in 2 months i will go back to Spain and there i have the plan to start a jewelry project^^ Im so excited and i tthink that this video will help me a lot..Thank you!! :D
Hello and Thank You for this awesome Video of information you shared with us and All. We are considered Newbies in Lapidary, Rock Hounding and have started to acquire tools for the Trade / Craft for Metal Smithing. Rosie and I have been Married for 50yrs. Met in 1974 and Took the Bull by the Horns in February 14, 1976. We are now known as Disabled Seniors and we're TRULY Having a Blast at this New Hobby. Would have been great if known about this 20-30years ago, however This was meant to beeeee.
Great video, you are adorable. Can you make a video about how do you learned jewelry making? Were you self thought and the process. Where do you draw your inspiration and anything you would like to share concerning your journey :)
Generally speaking in the UK we usually say either goldsmith for someone who works on very fine jewellery using golf of platinum. Jeweller usually covers every kind of less expensive jewellery. Silversmiths make bigger items from precious metals. Such as domestic items and ceremonial work. We very rarely use the word metalsmithing
Hello dear 🥰 I love your videos so easy to understand and simple I wanted to ask if there will be a video on the Rio Grande website to order silver plates, types of wire and settings
Great to see again with your undersized pencil! Hope you are OK in Poland, SAFE. Yes to alternatives, and hunt around, I am getting there. Much Love....Arohanui..
Haha, it's my favourite pencil! 😁 I'm ok and my family is too. Luckily we weren't affected much by the floods this time. The previous one, in June, did reach my family's house and water got into the basement. Hopefully, this time it won't happen again. But seeing other areas in Poland is really sad and horrifying. Thank you for your kind words, sending love ❤️
Is there a cheaper option for a multipurpose steel anvil you can recommend? I want to use it for bracelets and for concave/ convex attachment.. Or is the best bet to go with a wood option for shaping bracelets?

The most expensive thing about silversmithing is probably not the tools, but the rent for the studio you need. After all, you can't do silversmithimg in your own apartment.
I don't know where you're based, maybe you can't do silversmithing there, but in Poland, UK and States you can totally do it at home. I moved from the UK to Poland three years ago and I was renting a separate workshop up until August this year. I hated it and it was indeed very costly. So now I moved my workshop back home and I'm happier than ever 🥰
@@evelinepeterhans4873 it's a very small flame. And the soldering station is properly set up with the fire resistant surfaces. The flame is always being directed only at the soldering surface. And right next to my bench is a fire extinguisher 👍 There are safety tips and procedures that if followed, nothing bad is going to happen. Working with a small butane torch, which you carefully operate and control doesn't pose any more of a risk than keeping lit candles
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithing A fire extinguisher was the one thing I was missing from this otherwise comprehensive list. Compiling it and looking up all the prices as well as alternatives must have taken ages. I wish I had had something like this in the beginning!
I'm Polish 👍 And when I used "silversmithing" more regularly in the past, some people kept asking me why I use this term and not "jewelry metalsmithing" which apparently would've been more appropriate in this context 😁 That's why now I use all of these terms interchangeably, even if they mean slightly different things. I don't use "goldsmithing" too often, because most people don't work with gold and I haven't been using much gold in my tutorials. I'm trying to use the terms that would be the most accurate and reflect the content I share.
I remember when Miss Stardust timidly started posting her first videos. I am very happy with your success Basia.

And once you start , and you acquire your skills, you find you become addicted to all the new and latest tools ! It never stops !!! lol !
Oh my gosh, totally!! 🙈 And the tools become so exciting, I looove snooping around my friends' workshops and benches, seeing what they have 😁
Ebay is a good place to go for second hand tools.
Always love watching your videos they are informative and educational and your personality always makes me smile, have a great day!😀
That's so sweet, thank you! I'm very happy to hear that and to know, that you enjoy my videos 🥰

Thank you SO much. Love your videos. SO helpful. You're awesome!
oh wow, THANK YOU!! So glad you think so!
This is very helpful, thanks. I will likely delve into basic soldering over the winter and will come back here to make my list of tools.
That's a great plan for the Winter! 😀 And I'm sure you'll enjoy soldering a lot
You are a legend thank you so much

It should be gold above not golf!

@@TheArtOfMetalsmithing but isn't it dangerous? You work with fire after all.

Why do Americans call it metalsmithing instead of silversmithing or goldsmithing or jewellery making?
Who says they do? Basia is obviously Polish.
I'm Polish 👍 And when I used "silversmithing" more regularly in the past, some people kept asking me why I use this term and not "jewelry metalsmithing" which apparently would've been more appropriate in this context 😁 That's why now I use all of these terms interchangeably, even if they mean slightly different things.

Exactly 😁
😂 why do you guys find any reason to "other" Americans. Does she sound American to you?
