Is it cheaper to buy jump rings in bulk or make your own from silver wire?
Buy them - life's too short! :-) :-)
I buy mine too, it might be cheaper to make your own, but I'd rather save the time personally!
I buy them open myself then I have the choice to solder them closed (when I buy my new kit) or use them open. Personally I find closed ones infuriating as the ones I have bought in the past have never found a use and are probably still here in my attic somewhere!
I should just clarify that I am talking about Sterling jump rings though... I'm not sure about any other kinds of wire.
Remember though when you make them yourself you still have to cost in your time unless you want to work for free... it's something alot of people seem to forget when they say making jump rings is cheap!
