Second Gear – Is a sterling silver and brass spinner necklace

This necklace is truly awesome! I love how it looks like a mechanical part of some kind.

I used sterling silver square wire to make the gears, and brass round wire for the rings.

The pendant is all constructed on a sterling silver tube which is flared on each end trapping the pieces onto it.

Each piece moves freely on the tubing, allowing you to fidget and play with it.

The entire pendant is roughly half an inch wide and half an inch high.

Romeo- A Sterling Silver And 14K Gold Spinner Ring

This ring starts out as sheet and wire.

romeo-1

I hammer a pattern with a riveting hammer, first in one direction and then in the other direction to give it a cross pattern.

I then anneal it, bend it in to a ring, and solder.

now it is a wide ring, I sand one side flush and use my dividers to the width I want the ring to be, scribe and saw or file to the line the.

now I put on the finished spinner rings made of silver and gold wire. I then flare the sides of the ring with a dapping pinch larger then the inside of the ring and with a light tapping with a weighted nylon mallet flare the edges of the ring.

All done ready to wear!
