Flux was my favorite part of jewelry class. So satisfying!
imtheimgur
I could do that too if I had all that expensive equipment, an ounce of talent and any ambition. But I have none of those things, so...
luxenlotus
Oh gosh I cant believe it’s you @OP I was so impressed with your fingerprint rings! Your works are amazing!!
AndrewCanadian
Like Warhammer 40k models but only half as expensive. :)
needanamedammit
Damn. Modern crucibles are amazing.
Scarlite
This is fascinating

Who are you to tell me which add can I put?

Bill the Sailor thinks it’s cool.

Neato.

Beautiful - and a well made „making off“ vid.
greyhoundbones
Bracelets are complicated, they should cost like a million dollers each
LetsGoDeeper
Retails for $1 in the twist machines at the mall.
PabloCimadevila
You have a lot of know how in a jewelry industry hahahaha...Have a good Saturday night kid
LetsGoDeeper
I was just making a joke based on how much time it looks like this took. It really is very nice and I didn't mean any offense!
opiuo
I don’t get all of the hate. This is the process in how you make this particular jewelry which I imagine isn’t something you can just (1/)
opiuo
YouTube. This is an amazing process. Even though I wouldn’t spend money on it I can appreciate the work it took. Even the video must’ve(2/)
opiuo
Taken a while. Pablo. Post this on a subreddit. You should get better feedback for sure. Thanks for posting this, friend (3/3)
ihaveaten
The hate is because, despite the incredibly impressive work that went into it, the finished product despite being technically great is ugly
pantsandshirts
Why'd he dip that shit in the black shit?
CorkRockingham
Idk, but I love the phrasing of your question.
Frodomann1
Liver of Sulfur or a similar compound, it basically stain/dyes the silver a darker color
ihaveaten
Right, but, why do it? It looked better when it was black diamonds(?) set in silver. Made the gems stand out more.
Frodomann1
Artistic preference I suppose. Or maybe the gems sparkle more on the black, idk
SirHappi
Is that you @OP?

QueenCousland
I've been shopping for jewelry on Amazon. Some weird-looking stuff has prices that match the effort shown here.
PabloCimadevila
Lol
larryrathbun
I thought he was going to actually encourage barnacles to grow on a form. That would have been much cooler.
barnwolf
Would have also been painful to wear, but beauty hurts.
PabloCimadevila
lol
cyno01
I did too, but that would make shitty jewelry
cyno01
Really small barnacles then encased the whole thing in resin maybe so they didnt scrape the shit out of you?
meatblast
Amazing process! Thanks for sharing. I wish I had access to those machines
PabloCimadevila
Thank you!! You always can find a casting house for the casting process. At the beginning I dint have all the machines...
igoslow
i thought it an interesting process as well; thank you
LostCatWantedDeadAndAlive
I have a few gorgeous opals I cut myself that I don't know how to set in jewelry.
meatblast
https://imgur.com/IfVL9zf I made this ring for my wife by hand. It took a long time. I did lost wax casting
xsoup4you
That’s amazing!
PabloCimadevila
Very nice design. Congratulations ;)
mattbl
So why did he cut up the 3D printed object to cast it in pieces, then put the cast back together exactly the same way the first object was?
cyno01
Everything had to be cut apart and put back together to hollow it out to reduce the weight of the final product.
mattbl
I'm asking a serious question b/c I know nothing about this sort of process.
DickPicEnthusiast
To make the finished cast lighter, use less material and to prevent bubble formation. Also, I figure if part of the casting has a defect, >
DickPicEnthusiast
> he doesn't need to recast the whole thing. Also helps to set up the spring, but mostly the thing about making it light and comfortable.
doggetofftheqcekmty
Why did the mold have to be cut in half lengthwise?
equityforpunks
Remember how you teacher used to say you did not pay attention? Room for the spring (also, I'd assume it molds better w/ less air bubbles).
tgeliot
As for molding better, no. It would mold just fine in one piece. Source: was married to a goldsmith for 16 years.
Corrodias
You're trying to make fun of someone based on your assumption? Your guess? Dude at least have something solid before you get all smug.
pilotperson
dancfontaine
Lmao shit on
giftkartoffel
There aren't any air bubbles in this process. The material forms around the wax, the wax melts and leaves a cavity in the shape of the wax.
PabloCimadevila
Less weight...more confortable ;)
ERSalty
And cheaper
reijigin
This. You don't want a honk of solid metal that big on your wrist, it would be hella annoying.
kriositivity
A lot of native American gold, silver, and copper jewelry is solid and BIG. My aunt wears like three 2 inch bracelets, 7 rings and earrings
kriositivity
North West Indians bling so hard
Corrodias
But then he glued the two halves back together in the final product. It's not lighter or more comfortable than molding it together to start.
tallroses
He hollowed out the inside of the halves
Corrodias
Aaah. I was wondering why he just kissed the inside with that rotory tool. So he actually kept going with it.
TheMershedPerderder
But barnacles are gross...
DoublevBomb
They have really cool glue.
bpetersen
Up next is the one on warts
fireeternal
I don't know about gross but they hurt my feet.
Klausse
aren’t barnacles mostly penis?
PabloCimadevila
and tasty ;)
WoefulWombat
I'll be honest: had no idea they were edible.
Volaktil
They're lush on a hot day by the beach with a cold beer
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Goose-neck barnacles are quite popular, especially in parts of europe.
TrustMeIWouldntLie
Everything is edible
Nickelbackfat
Even I’m eatable
kyrpto4
Some things are just only edible once?
TrustMeIWouldntLie
Once eaten, whatever end of my digestive system it uses to leave it, I won't re-eat it again. Doesn't everybody do the same?
muffinmethod
What keeps the gems attached in place?
RoseSheepy69
Gravity

Like OP said, small grains of metal, called claws or prongs

Leithoa
Staking. He took a little punch in between them to smoosh the metal over. Similar to how they set rivets.
BklynPunisher
Cold temp causes shrinkage.
tzxAzrael
that part where he makes little pokes next to the gems, he's bending the metal slightly over the edges of the gems
PabloCimadevila
Small grains of metal hold the stones in place
MrsWhatsit
And what was the solution at the end that turned the metal black?
PabloCimadevila
Chloride iron
ChekovTheChemist
Iron(III)chloride*
SirHappi
Acid probably.
Leithoa
You're right, it's a lewis acid.
7Spades
Nope
SirHappi
TIL I would suck at making jewelery.
Leithoa
Yep. A lewis acid that steals electrons. Not all acids have hydrogen.
