'One Bead' Ring Tutorial

I bought a plastic ring mandrel and it S**ks ! I will go and get the metal one and hopefully my ring making will be easier and better! Thanks!

This is bob. Copy and paste him so he can take over youtube.

I only really use 24 gauge if I am working with a bead(s) that have a smaller hole, or for more fragile beads that will break with thicker wires. For these, I make a few wraps around the mandrel for the band, rather than two or three for 20 -22 gauge wires. That will make the band more sturdy. Try not to cross your wires. The more wires in the band, the more tricky it becomes. Beginners should try to use 20 - 22 gauge soft wires. :O) I could go on for days....

Thank you. I have tried that before, and you can see that in the original copper rosette ring tutorial. It came out kind of goofy. :O) Try that video, as it may give you a better idea. Feel free to email me if you need any help. :O)

it would have helped if the camera work was done from over your shoulder!
