What do you think of him making something out of a brass nut and enucleated nut

Amazing!! There is an unbelievable amount of talent out there in this world.

cool!

I'd give that a try if I could come up with the diamond on the cheap.

I do have several loose stones like a black diamond, Rubies, Emeralds, Sapphires, and Amethysts I could do that with.

Instead of a nut I am thinking why not a SS thick washer or Brass washers that are thick so not as much work taking metal off.

I really like how he taken the nut and did all the work on it for the diamond setting.  Pretty cool there to.

It has to do with how easily the metal can be worked and hold its shape.  Brass is pretty soft, and stainless can be difficult to work.

Thanks Bruce

Being an ex-machinist I have turned all kinds of metals and of most of them Titanium is the worst and the most brittle but I have made a few rings from that as well just not like his nor as fragile.   He has a few other YouTube on making other rings out of other stones and does a great job there to.

Well, then, you’re just the guy to ask.  My son’s wedding ring is a carbide of some sort.  How are those made?  I can’t see how they could be machined.

Thanks for sharing.

I thought his workbench setup was pretty interesting.
