Make on Rocketboom: How to Make A Ring From A Coin.

[phr4nk3rd00d13]

well it can look a lot more professional than that. :S his ring got warped and that's not how it's "supposed" to look. it only warps and gets all wonky in shape when you hammer too hard. so don't get impatient- easy with the hammer!!!! and if you do that it should turn out looking like a proper ring. :P

[alitoha000]

fool

[123patriotsfan]

1:05 .... Firehydrant?hahahah

[ElginPocketwatch]

tip: always keep the shavings when drilling on silver and gold, its still worth the silver content.

[imalwaysrite666]

it warped because your a turd brain

[taz4408]

can you send me a coin so i can make one

[jred0]

can i just use a regular quarter i have a lot of them

[ningle4567]

I made one from a quarter not done yet but shitload better then yours

[hotrod1273]

"wow look at my ring i just wasted like 80% of the ring and all that silver" really?

[learntodrivenow]

lol theres more to it than just defraud sweetheart thanks for the lack of tons of information

[pixuma]

BRE PETTIS!

[mymegafart]

buy one!

[RepeatedTime]

you forgot to sand it...not to mention hammer slowly...AND THE SPOON IS FOR CREATING THE BLEEDING CURVE

[jasonlikesokinawa]

total fail dude

[Priwatez]

omg dude, it's total fail :D

[okonomiyaki4U]

there are much better ways to make rings out of coins..... e.g: search for: "Silver and gold coin rings bullion coins turned into rings" 

[gamerexpress]

1:00 the chick in the back is like wtf...

[micol018]

@gamerexpress no she is like whatever :)

[Householdbuilder]

Are there any Canadian coins I can use

[kommie178]

It warped because he was hitting it to hard and did not take his time at all.

[panzuman]

so you saved all of these pieces from the drilling right?

[carlosdebeaner]

i made one but out of a quater

[eatsleepbike]

I've done this with a spoon!!

[gigwalnutz1]

ass!

[GhettoBlaster100]

that guy's obviously broken his nose multiple times

[iluvpeanutbutter333]

im pretty sure its legal. its your property. i bought a penny cuff back in the day made of pennies welded together and i asked the same question. they said its my property and i can do whAT I want with is. i just cant use it as money anymore.. duh:)

[ForzaAquila]

umm...i actually watched this video cause i thought you were going to keep the design on the coin on the actual ring. instead you drilled out the best part

[dillpickleboocutie]

i do like what he did but yeah it is getting rid of the best part

[DrEarlInsanity]

lol i used a piece of wood rather than a anvil. i also put a nickel filler on the inside.

[andrew0901280]

really thats legal i thought it was considered disfacing govrnment curancy or somthing like that

[jessexlovesu]

i think it is ...it shoukd b

[riothero313]

no it's not illegal, the only time it would be illegal is if you deface the currency in an attempt to defraud someone. like say for instance; you tried to make a nickle look like a quarter. it is not illegal to do this because it is your property, you simply forfeit the ability to spend it. plus the silver is worth more then 25 cents now anyway and they are no longer in circulation.

[frizzlefochizzle]

ok, i made two, but the dremel head wont fit in the drill whole?? what do i do?!?

[Tasteslikeliberty]

use a larger drill bit to make the hole bigger or press the drill bit against the edges of the hole you've already made to make it bigger

[baseballman1394]

is there a way to do this without using a drill???

[AVerbene]

how rare are silver quarters? because i found 2 of them in my piggy bank

[talktoomuchshit]

is a silver quarter harder or softer than a newer copper quarter

[FireFreek1]

@talktoomuchshit : Softer

[talktoomuchshit]

i am useing a 2000 quarter and its turning out all grose looking. its not shiny like yours

[warus05]

newer quarters contain copper,thus mabye the "grose looking,less shinyish"

[stinkyhamster111]

and maybe harder and not ring material

[FireFreek1]

@talktoomuchshit : That's because it's made of copper and nickel, not silver like the coins used in the video.

[UberNoob5130]

omg where is my half dollar!

[spartagod99]

maybe he got scared.

[demotheemos]

I used a spoon. worked out way better. small "dings" vs. hammer sized. only took about 4 days (in spare time of course). Take ur time for precision...

[coloradude1]

will a quarter from 1966 work?

[bixlord]

it will work but it will not be a 90% silver ring

[Hunter4839]

IMMA MAKE A RING OUT OF A DIME!

[taekwondoworld]

or u could my a golden ring , better than wasting ur time , lol stil good

[ECTBWHO]

Interesting...

[zARCADEz]

or.....you could buy a ring

[satansmusic2009]

@zARCADEz has more personal value when u make someone somthing like this

[luckyazian13]

@zARCADEz

Ring pop for like 25 cents.

[guitarmasterjar1]

@zARCADEz but wheres the fun in that?

[zARCADEz]

@guitarmasterjar1 i posted that comment a year ago. i honestly dont care about this video anymore..

[epohnopulse]

@zARCADEz You totally don't get the point.

[zARCADEz]

@epohnopulse no i do, its more personal and interesting and you would get a sense of accomplishment making it for yourself, but since i have a job and i earn money, buying a well made. professional, beautiful, interesting piece of craftsmanship just becomes more appealing

[dsfghfdstfnyjmyfyfgb]

@zARCADEz how fun is that?

[rainysquirel]

I'm making one from a 1990 quarter, it's much harder and made from copper I've hammered for 6 hours and barely gotten to the eagles head.

[a7broken7angel7]

lol "craft on."

[NextLifeDK]

I made one about 30 years ago from a Swiss 2 franc piece. Still wearing it.

[marklchamberlain]

I am making one from a one dollar coin (1927) a lot more tapping but it is better if you are a man with very large fingers - also the finished ring is wider and heavier- I will let you know how it turns out.

[SillyRabbitTAFK]

There are two kinds of channels on youtube. There are those who are original, and those who take the content of others.

This is one which takes the content of others.

Rocketboom in my opinion should make their own damn videos with their own ORIGINAL ideas.

[Gigafuzz]

Yeah seriously.

[Swingstar3]

But, if they were taking videos from other people, I feel they are definitely explaining them a whole lot better. So, if you're not uploading any videos of your own, lay off.

[iRaptors]

why cant we be friendss

[Swingstar3]

because people are jerks.

[yorkshirepud123]

Well, would it not be easier to use a mould and melt the metal into there with a blow torch, after doing so a light hammering to finish off the shape and smooth it out a bit?

[talktoomuchshit]

it wouldnt be as fun

[yoursooowrong]

nice.

[yoursooowrong]

im doing this right now, and i like the warped look its geting. it looks neat.

[stinkoman622]

hey imma try this but i was wondering. is it hard to make it look nice?

[yoursooowrong]

well i desided to start over, becuase i actually have alot of these things, and the new one came out perfect! its not warped at all, and the constant movement of your fingers and the spreading of the metal gives it a gleeming shine. i love it its just perfect. but... i droped it in my car and still havent been able to find it!! ):

[Lethalis1234]

not really it just kinda builds it self as you hammer ive made like 10 and each one took about 2 days

[stinkoman622]

i wish i had one lol and how long did it take you to hammer it?

[yoursooowrong]

well i used a regualr old hammer youd normally use for nails and as an anvil i used a barbel wieght. it took like two weeks maybe a total of five or six hours.

[stinkoman622]

thats cool. im making mine from a gold plated u.s. 1$ coin its comming out ok.

[yoursooowrong]

sweet. like the sacujuaha thing? the indian braud?

[stinkoman622]

haha no its a james madison $1 coin. and i just started another one from a canadian quater its nice cuz it is metal colored all the way through!

[epohnopulse]

I warped a coin that had copper in it because it was made in 1974, I crimped it faster than he explains in the video for the higher silver content ones....hmmmm

[epohnopulse]

later...

fuck getting a hole in it lol.

[1ToNJaB]

wow, thats crap.

[P4452]

I'd probably practice with some more recent coins before molesting a coin worth 5 dollars... nice idea though.

[Barbwiregirl]

I love this video and all your services this is awesome just came across it the other day. We need more like you out there being innovators ... loved the legal note...

[ZachWalters2008]

Try using a wooden block to prevent the warping. I'm working on a half-dollar ring and I've found that a heavy tablespoon works really well.

[slimsdizz]

cool vid yes you rushed it and hit it to hard a better way to clear the center than a drill bit is a unibit then go to the dremel.

[ZutiGufu]

sweet... I think i'll try it.
