How to make a hammered Copper ring

In this video I show my methods for making hammered Copper rings. I show measuring, sawing, soldering, forging, and finishing. These methods apply to Sterling Silver, Gold, and Brass with slight modifications. I will upload more detailed videos in the near future as time allows.

This video taught me a lot. In 15 minutes that I sat here watching you made a ring. Someone is more productive.

Wow, I've been doing jewelry for almost a year now, but I just learned some great pointers. Thank you!

I've watched sooo many YouTube videos (not too many regarding coppersmithing out there) as I'm just starting out. I've made maybe 3 pendants and I'm getting ready to make a ring for my husband. The info I received from this video was invaluable! Thank you!! I'd love to see more videos regarding working with copper. I'm learning that it's considerably different than working with silver! And yet, the resources for working with it are much fewer and far between. 🤔

Dude, are you a hypnotist? Your voice is soothing. Lol. I want to learn this forging skill. So that’s why I found the video. Now I’m hypnotized.

Haha this is so awesome. I found your store on Etsy and then I randomly found this video. I was like "wait, I've seen that final photo before..."

The ring looks really great. Definitely about to order one.

Really wanting to get into jewelry making and metal working, this is cool 👍🏻

[benjaminmellen]

Hi Sir, what a fine piece of jewelry, thanks for sharing your technics. My experience with copper is, it's quick weathering and staining on the skin. I'd be thankful if you shared an advice to those issues. Thanks and have a great day
