5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for a Newbie,
By JewelryMom (Simpsonville, SC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Metalsmith (DVD)
This is a great DVD for newbies like me. I've had a metalsmithing class a couple of years ago and only recently invested in the tools and supplies. I needed a refresher class. I'm a visual learner and although I can learn from books, it was reassuring to see someone in action. To me the coolest thing about the DVD was watching the appendix where he makes the ring, pronged pendant, and the box. If you've had some experience with metalsmithing, this may not wet your appetite. However, if you're a newbie like me, you're mouth will water with the possibilities.

This review is from: The Complete Metalsmith (DVD)
This is a great video to learn some of the basic techniques for metalsmithing. I have Tim McCeight's books and now I have him here to teach me any time I'm ready to learn or if I forget something.
For those that are visual and auditory learners this is a great way to get the same info that in the book.

This review is from: The Complete Metalsmith (DVD)
If they would change the DVDs name to "Some stuff with metalsmith" it would have been less disappointing.
Don't get fooled by the nice cover, and the affiliation to the book "The Complete Metalsmith" this DVD is a very very basic 70 min, that actually ends with the words "Well, we have covered the basics!" btw it's from the 80's and everything he shapes is very primary. He is not making jewelery, just tells you about soldering and tampering, with plain pieces of metal. If you are looking for something that talks about design you'd be disappointed. He does makes 1 ring for example, but it is sssso 70's and low-tec. I did enjoy watching it but it wasn't worth the $. Definitely disappointing. I guess it could be effective for an absolute beginner it has a few tips, but it's not "The complete Metalsmith". Better get the book.
