Got a little forge time before work today. Made a handful of simple hooks and a couple leaf keychains. Good way to spend the first snowy day we've really had this season. #blacksmith #handmade #forged #keychain #keyring

Did a mock set up today to get photos for events as I'm upgrading my display a little. So here is a sneak peak. If you see something you find interesting let me know. Any advice is welcome as well #blacksmith #handmade #jewelry #jeweler #craft #art #metalwork

#ringtober 2025 ring 31, largest ring of the year, working out all wreaths. Simple but enjoyable, going to make more elaborate as I figure it out. #ringtober2025 #blacksmith #wreath #handmade #forged

#ringtober rings 27,28, and 29. Trying out size and material variations in ring brooches for production. What do you prefer for the rings? #brooch #ring #kiltpin #blacksmith #handmade #forged #ironwork

#Ringtober 2025 ring 26, apparently I did two 24s. Today's was going to be a basic silver ring brooch but I had a little inspiration when the silver melted in the shape like a snake head So I ran with it. Do I carve the head more? Set some stones as eyes? #silver #jewelry #brooch #snake #ringtober25

#ringtober 2025 ring 23, I was a bit under the weather yesterday, so back behind. Today I just focused on the basics. A simple high polished band. Hand filed, sanded, and then polished at the bench. #ring #silver #ringtober25 #handmade #jewelry #handmade #rings

#ringtober 2025 ring 22 trying my hand at miniature carved leaves in wax... Might try straight engraving into a ring... Probably copper first. #natureinspired #leaves #jewelry #handmade #waxcarving

#ringtober 2025 ring 21, here's one I really like. Going to make a few I think maybe some variations. Probably slightly thinner on the stock this is a bit heavy for a size 7. #ring #ringtober2025 #handmade #jewelry #metalwork

#ringtober 2025 rings 17 & 18, yes I have caught up. Forged out a prototype set of wrapped rings inspired by waves, made them slightly too thin so these will likely either be scrapped or I might add a thin layer on the inside.. At least in the larger as it's kind of comfortable on me #rings #jewelry

#ringtober 2025 ring 16. Just felt like doing something different today. Stand a bit to high for me personally, might rework later. #jewelry #ring #handmade #silver #ringtober2025

#ringtober 2025 ring 15, a power outage kicked me out of the jewelry workshop today. I went out to the forge and made a few hooks and a ring brooch. hopefully have a customer for them next year. This one is fresh from the oil blackening. Couldn't wash it clean. #handmade #jewelry #forged #pin

#ringtober 2025 ring 14. Revisiting cracks. The wax goes let me get more defined cracks than engraving silver. And working with a larger stock leaves me the option for creating channels in the cracks for setting stones once cast #jewelry #waxcarving #handmade

#Ringtober 2025 day 13, yes I'm a day behind, I've got a double in the works but that's a later day. Today I have a faceted wax ring, I do want to try doing a faceted silver ring but need to figure out a way to mount it on my faceting machine first. #jewelry #ringtober2025 #handmade #waxcarving

I'll be away for a long weekend so I spent some little time working and relearning my tools for wax carving. Definitely need more practice but ringtober days 9,10,11, and 12. Trying different forms and techniques. #jewellery #handmade #handmadejewelry #ringtober #jewelry #ring #rings #waxcarving

Ringtober 2025 day 7. A little time carving on this I've. Just a simple texture idea. I think casting would be better. I'll revisit this if wax I think. #ringtober #silver #handmade #jewelry #ring

Ringtober 2025 day 6. Getting back into fabricating practice. Have some more complex ideas in my head that I'm out of practice for. So here is a flowy ring from left over bits. #ringtober #ringtober2025 #jewelry #handmade #ring #silver
