We all start out making what sells at the beginning. I’m in a position to make only what I enjoy and get something from . One off bespoke pieces and if someone doesn’t like or can’t afford a piece of...

No never happened to me either. I do tend to sweat solder sheet and I use paste taking off the excess for balls or granules

0.5 seems very fine for cotton depending on the weight of the medallion. The websites selling end fittings as suggested will give you internal diameters so you can work it out for yourself

Kernocraft have a good selection of cord ends and cords no doubt. They aren’t expensive so you might have to play around with what works best for you, try different cords different knots, make the...

It was beautifully shot as a piece of art but not really a teaching video

What a beautifully filmed and edited video though. To the untrained eye it’s all smoke and mirrors and he makes it look really easy and quick. Aye right as we say in Scotland!

Hi Xiao.
I have read your intentions nd agree you’ve set yourself a task!
You can’t melt aluminium so can remove that particular option
If you want cheap then you would make a prototype in copper...

Peter can do it

I live in rural Scotland so don’t have knowledge of companies in London. Now that you’ve changed your question you might get more help from jewellers who buy stones regularly

Watching posts on here and other social media Jewellers forums people usually have their respected companies in the U.K. and I’ve never seen China suggested. I suppose it depends on whether you need...

I think we are all trying to do the opposite and find reliable sources of everything here as we can no longer afford the extra duties buying from our usual sources in the EU

Glad you are home now George. It probably the best place to recover now. Take care xx

That is good news George. I have to get work to assay first thing Tuesday so I’m polishing and finishing and doing chains but guess I could fit in some chocolate under the mask! X

Walsh are a bit more expensive and they aren’t my go to if it’s something that can be bought elsewhere. I’ve just bought filters for my Dustmaster and a torch holder but they are about the only...

It’s good to be able to do both.
Tim McCreight has come up in advice recently. Looking through mine I have the Elizabeth Bone book and Jinks McGrath is another. Haven’t looked at them in a long...

Hello and welcome. It depends in the way you learn best but there are some great books and videos if that’s the way you learn or some more one to one teaching would be really helpful.

I had thought there were a few questions up your street recently but assumed you had escaped the country at last George.
Sorry to hear you are so poorly, the best place to be when you are ill....

Also Jinks McGrath and Elizabeth Bone

Hi John
I was about to say the same thing!

I’m always getting complaints about there being nothing for men at my shows but the only men I know who wear jewellery are old hippies!

Gosh Dennis you must know by now that women don’t go for comfort but style even if it hurts! I’ve still got 2 sets of thin ones and I have to wear them all together because I’m the only one they seem...

Thanks Lou! I wouldn’t call it a cuff under 3/4in to 1 ins, sorry I’d need to get the ruler out for mm. I suppose I have done perhaps 2 or 3 ins, depends who you are making for and how it sits on a...

Your image is blurred so I can’t see what measurements you’re putting in but have you checked they both say mm?

I got £8.22 for sheet so cheaper per gram because of the processing costs of wire I would imagine

Hi Lou, welcome.
Do you mean 3 mm wide or 3 cm for a cuff otherwise you could buy 3mm wire cut to length.
Depends where you are buying a bracelet from and in what country it’s made and silver is...
