Fucking internet I swear

That's it internet, you and I need to have a little talk here.  You creative bastards out there need to stop making new shit until I have some time to finish some of the really awesome damn projects I've already found.

Seriously it's getting out of hand.  I don't have 40+ hours a week to play with projects, or even 10 hours for that matter!  It feels rare that I have even 30 minutes a day to push the ball forward on various projects any given day.  Between cooking, and taking care of my child and a little video gaming mixed in I don't have time.

Alright, so on that note I give you this bit of internet glory:  Making rings out of coins.

This video doesn't have a "How-to" but shows you what they can look like.



This video gives you some insight into how to actually do the work, but the guy is annoying and whines about the quality of his tools most of the time.

  3. Metallurgy is so amazing... I love the designs on old coins, and a lot of them would probably be more valuable as jewelry anyway!

  4. It wouldn't be a good youtube video if the person didn't whine constantly about their equiptment!

    I hope you find the time in life!

    1. Okay, so Freudian or whatever but I transposed the ck from rock after the co on coin. I was very confused by your comment when I first read it.... So yeah.

  6. That's pretty neat, reminds me of "How It's Made", the show on Discovery channel

  7. Having one of those coin rings would be epic. Too bad I don't have any toold to make them, let alone any decent knowledge about making them.
