For anyone who has no access to square wire, for whatever reason, if you gently hammer each ring band so that you create a flat side, that will improve your outcome dramatically. I tried and was happy with the results. You still should be using half round for binding but I bet it would probably be ok if you used a Very thin round wire to bind as well.
Thank you for this! I made 5 perfect rings in a row tonight in different sizes using 20 guage half hard for the base wires and 20 guage half round (DS). Making sure the length of the base wires are the same as well as even tension on the half round weaving wires is consistent is the key to making these! Thanks again for another great tutorial Nolan!
Awesome video! Ive been wrapping for almost 2 years and have been trying to figure this out. Thank you so much for showing us how to make this beautiful ring! I'll be trying this tomorrow!!! ❤
Had to pause vidio to tell you I adsoluty love your work, and to thank you for your wonderful tutorials. Ive been weaping for30 years. Its good souls like you sharing your craft with others that is so inspireing. Thank You, God has Blessed You.. Linda
This is so pretty, love your trinity tattoo too. I’ve noticed lately that it’s been catching my eye 😊 maybe its a sign I need one tattooed on me too lol
Love your Tutorials! Thank you so much for explaining this in such a way where it was very easy to understand. My only request is to show how stones are added, I’ve seen several designs similar but with stones on top and it still comes out as an infinity ring or a seamless ring. I would love to know how to incorporate gemstones or small cabochons into the ring but also keep it seamless. Thank you so much for everything you’ve put out so far it’s really helped and not just my journey and wire wrapping, but a lot of others that I have seen within the past year or so since I’ve been doing this❤
I made this ring in copper tonight ♥️ Not as nice as yours, but I tried and will keep practicing on it ♥️ Nowhere to post it, to show you the out one of my ring ♥️
That is frikkin Awesome! I Love watching your video's, you make it look so easy. 😂 You Absolutely do Beautiful work. Thank you so much for sharing your video's.
You're so awesome! I love everything you create! I'll see you Monday am at 10:30. I couldn't view last Monday's, but I know it's trial and error with new video software!
Thank you for this, I am fairly new to wire wrapping and still find soldering a bit intimidating, so I always appreciate this kind of alternative. One question, if you don't mind.. how do you straighten square wire, so that it doesn't have the subtle twists, made apparent once wrapped. You're work has led me to fall in love with square wire, and I'm definitely incorporating it into as much of my work as I can, but I have to admit these small twist drive me crazy (obviously never an issue with round wire!).
You have to make sure it doesn't twist to begin with! Once a twist starts its hard to correct it. If your having trouble with making the ring shank circles just wrap them very slowly around a ring mandrel making sure you keep a flat side down firmly against the mandrel.
Wow... I'm so impressed with you! Question, is the square base wires dead soft or half hard? Getting ring sizing right, beginning to end has been a major struggle for me. I've been working wire for 10+ years, but totally self taught by trial and error. This has been wonderful, as I am not used to any instruction, but I love your way of doing things. You are an amazing teacher and artist! Thank you!!!!
I just found your channel and have watched a couple videos of yours. What a simple and effective way of creating a seamless ring. Thoroughly enjoyed it! You have a new subscriber! 😊 One thing that would be nice to add in the description area is all your supplies (i.e. wire type and gauge, tools, etc.). This would be helpful so rewatching that part of the video is unnecessary.
Hi again, I made another one of this ring ❤ Only difference is that I made it wider by adding 2 more wires ❤ You can view it on FB on "My Story" ❤ Can you do a few more tutorials on ring bands in maybe a design in it???? ❤ Using copper for now, until I can perfect my projects ❤ That might be awhile ❤ lol ❤ Oh and I used 16 gauge square and 22 half round, dead soft ❤
You're not using the nylon covered needle nose to crimp... Why is that? I love your videos and appreciate your work so much. I am new here, but I'm enjoying your beautiful work. Thank you for sharing.
@@Divine_Mode I was thinking of that but would be somewhat worried how well it would be able to hold without messing with the square wires. Since there's a lot of tension needed with a channel setting I wouldn't want to pull too hard and mess up the square wires. I think this is something Im going to have to experiment with in the future !
I have watched this video several times as I really love this ring. Well, today I tried it and I really messed up. Everything went fine until I was wrapping the 1/2 round wire. I didn't have 22 ga, so I used 21 ga., due to the length of the wire I found that the wire would kink up and have a hard time keeping it straight. Is there a secret to keeping it from kinking? You have awesome videos, I love them! Keep it up!!
I personally have 2 ways I like to keep my wire from kinking. 1. Wubbers. They are silicone pliers that can smooth a wire should or get kinked, but don't overuse! Wire gets tougher/harder the more it's annieled, so use this technique sparingly. 2. Pinch the wire as you go along, with your fingers. This will keep the wire warm and pliable, but also keep the band straight. Been wrapping 4 years now, myself. The struggle is real!
Sorry for being a little dense, but what prevents the outer, half-round wire from unraveling (without soldering}?? What magic holds it all together?? Thanks for sharing, Ax
I love your tutorial videos very much!😍 Could you please tell me the brand of the flash cutter you used in this video? 😳 I have no idea about this tool.. Thank you so much!🙏
As always great job. What is the brand name of the tools you use for this project. The ones you are using look to be pretty sturdy. Thank you in advance.
Thank you for the tutorial! I have a question, can you please tell me what calipers you are using? I need new ones and really like the ones you are using.
Often when adding curves to wire, I hammer them lightly with a rubber mallet to work harden the curve. Would that help with this at all? I also wondered about fusing instead of soldering. I haven't found anything by you about fusing but I'd like to learn more.
This is gorgeous! Thank you soooo much for the tutorial! Quick question. Do you think the ring would work with only three (or two) inside circle rings with the square wire? My wife would prefer a thinner band, i think, but I wonder if the ring would hold up in shape if it was thinner. Thank you again for sharing!
I am new to this so don't take my word for it but let's say you had 2 inner rings only then you would adjust their openings at north and south for example and begin coiling from east or west ... I don't know if this is accurate but I hope it helps :)
Can you do a video on a V shaped ring with one wire wrapped around 3x, so 3 Vs stacked into each other and the ends wrapped a couple times on either side of the V. I am having the biggest issue getting them done.
You would think a simple design like this is easier but it's not. With no stones or flair of any sort to distract attention away, the tiniest imperfections are at the forefront. This is pretty advanced imo, definitely I wouldn't start here.
Raftark Jewelry thanks for answering so quickly. I like wide bands and think that would be beautiful. I wonder if it would take 10 pieces of wire to get a 10 mm width? I’ve never used square wire before so not sure.
Very cool!!!! I've tried wrapping rings so many times, trying to figure out how to make them as seamless as possible. This takes care of that. Thank you!!!

You're an incredible teacher. I so gratefully appreciate you.
Thank you so much. I have always wanted a plain wire wrapped band but you are the only one that has figured out how to make one of course.
You have your own vocabulary and dictionary, evidently.

Great video. Just a suggestion, listing all tools and supplies in description/drop down, for easy referencing. Thx 👍
Thank you for this. I was starting to think there wasn't a way to do a seamless ring until I found this video. Wonderful. Much 💜
Outstanding work. Great job.
This is so pretty, love your trinity tattoo too. I’ve noticed lately that it’s been catching my eye 😊 maybe its a sign I need one tattooed on me too lol
Wonderful tutorial! 👍 Your voice is so calm and relaxed and your instructions are thorough. Thanks for sharing! 🙂

I have been wanting to make more men's jewelry!! This tutorial is amazing!! Thank you so much!
Amazing, a lovely ring, ideal for stacking, & no soldering! Thank you so much for sharing, I must have a go..

Nice, have you tried one of these with larger half round?
Thanks for another awesome tutorial!

Very nice ring, thank you.
That was awesome...I'm going to try it .thanks
Amazing! Thank you for sharing!
How do you measure to make sure u have enough coiling wire?
You're not using the nylon covered needle nose to crimp... Why is that? I love your videos and appreciate your work so much. I am new here, but I'm enjoying your beautiful work. Thank you for sharing.
It’s looks so nice.... love it’s...😍
very good video and very well explain! thank you!
Nice work. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you its pretty
I made this. It turned out fine. I think soldering is more reliable. I just want the easiest soldering i can find.
Amazing tutorial! Do you think this would be able to be done with a channel setting somehow?
Yes actually, you could run the setting wires beneath the wire being coiled around the band (:

Semplicemente grandioso!!! Grazie ❤
I’m wondering if I could attach a bezel blank on that ring? Would it be secure?
Nice ring,👍🥰
綺麗ですね！ 結婚指輪にできそう
ワイヤーのゲージ、数字で表記してほしいです。
Thank you for the tutorial! I have a question, can you please tell me what calipers you are using? I need new ones and really like the ones you are using.
I belive he made a video about the tools he uses
Hi just wondering could you do it with round wire as while?
Nice. Should probably give MNDFLMTLS the credit as he made this first.
where did you get your trimmers?! they’re so good!
This is so cool!
That is soooo cool!!!! 😎😎😎😎

@@jacquipapadopoulos6969 thank you Jacqui! I will definitely try!
Whaaaat! This is magic!
What flush cutters are you using??
What kind of wire do you use and where do you get it? Love you work!
Sterling silver www.riogrande.com
Can you do a video on a V shaped ring with one wire wrapped around 3x, so 3 Vs stacked into each other and the ends wrapped a couple times on either side of the V. I am having the biggest issue getting them done.

Cool
Please sir, are you using sterling silver?
I am 🙂
Awesome thank you for sharing 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Half hard wire? Sterling Silver?
Nice!
😍🥰
Does this kind of wrapping make the ring smaller?
Yes ..that why he added 2 mm to the length of ring he wanted.
Very nice b
Where does a person buy the calipers from and exactly what is the name of them?
I bought this set of digital calipers from www.riogrande.com, I don’t remember the exact model name though
i got my digital caliper from hobby lobby but i think michaels also has them
Where can I get these pliers?
Raftark Jewelry Is it possible to make this ring using 6 or 8 wires?
Of course!
Raftark Jewelry thanks for answering so quickly. I like wide bands and think that would be beautiful. I wonder if it would take 10 pieces of wire to get a 10 mm width? I’ve never used square wire before so not sure.
