Of course you solder it outside. Soldering copper is also called hard-soldering because you need higher temperatures to do it. You can do it pretty accurate and have some sanding/polishing to do.

onpsxmember yes but on a piece like that with extremely fine lines would leave no room for error, you'd also run the risk of scorching the wood with the soldering iron, totally ruining it. I'd say it would be a better idea to ensure the wire inlays meet up perfectly before setting them.

Hopefully everybody is now done sniping. I think this is inspiring and it has motivated me to try some things.. I also think you are very brave posting this for all of us to learn from...and evidently to get poked at for your efforts. If you used mechanized processes and it was perfect...you would merely have different snipers. I am grateful that these techniques are within my grasp so I feel comfortable making the effort. Thanks!

There are only two negative comments here: the one above and mine. What a broken thing to assume people are negative and tell them off.

What a beautiful finished product on a complicated thing to do by hand. Very impressive, I would love to see more content like this. Thanks for making this video! Keep it up.

Nicely done.. While others think of CNC, you just use your hand in creating such masterpiece in art.. Great job!

You make it look so simple. I am inspired by your work. Thank You WCD

Beautiful work! Clever idea thinning the wire first before sinking it in. Lovely job :)

Beautiful! This is the type of content I want from make.

Beautiful work ! Will really try it out myself

I did my first copper wire inlay to a piece of black walnut and it came out pretty good. I do understand the gaps in the copper wire inlay. when you sand the piece of wood you have to be careful or you will sand the wire to thin in places and it will break off and there you have the gaps. I used 18 gauge copper wire that I purchased at Home Depot and I flattened the wire with a Pepe Tools rolling mill.

whay kind of pen does he use to make the groove? Also you were concerned abouy the gaps. when you have a gap you can fill it all the way with copper powder and then add super glue and sand it. The powder blends in and looks like solid copper

So simple yet absolutely stunning!

this is looks like quite a fun project been looking something different to do for a while now thanks for posting this came across it by complete accident

Thank you for this instructional - This whole process is new to me, so it was good to see this method. Thank you for the knowledge bombs! I will use this method on my next project.

Thank you - your work is truly inspiring.

genious, this looks so beautiful

Very beautiful. What a level of Elegance. Idea..... make some wall sconces with this wire inlay as a circle just behind a candles flame. Several circles stacked one on top of the other or a narrow width strip running top to bottom setting behind the candle. Tea cup candles would work well because they typically burn in place. I really enjoyed this video. Very nicely done to include the music.

Nice technique! I make my own metal inlay using a huge wood panel and brass&aluminum bars. It took me almost 30 days to do it. Wire inlay it s quite simple but working with metal bars it can be tricky. Anyway, the final result it's outstanding.

There is a distinct lack of attention to detail here though. I can't imagine an incredible artist making beautiful inlays a hundred years ago would use crazy glue to hold it together, and leave gaps all over the place. It's teaching bad practice.

Very nice work. Nice vid. Nice music. I enjoy it .Thank you.!

Hit it with a hammer!

Thank you for this video, im making a wooden dagger for my uncle gor Christmas and im gonna inlay some designs

1. Sand it with an orbital or face down on a stationary sanding sheet backed with flat level sheet of plexiglas or cement board. 2. Coat it with clear epoxy resin, like for a bar top, instead of Tung oil. Epoxy will leave a smooth finish, not the rough and snaggy one. I also am interested in Neil Bradley's suggestion to use a metal hammer but you'd want to experiment first to see how that works out. You want to be careful not leave elephant feet marks in the wood from the hammer. Interesting video.

@ScooterFXRS

While I too would have used a faster, flatter mechanical means of leveling off the inlay to the wood then finish sanding and polishing the inlay and wood. No, pure tung oil nor the manufactured "tung oil" wipe on is not going to do much for the inlay but is Not going to leave a "rough and snaggy" finish. You get that result you need to back up and redo your finish sanding. Epoxy, meh, it has it's place but over time and subjected to sunlight will yellow and turn opaque over time. Much better to use pure tung oil or even linseed oil then use a clear finish of your choice AFTER the oil has polymerized. Hammers; 90% of every guy I have come across thinks he is black smithing and beating carbon into steel. "Tippy, tap, tap" as AVE would say. This person used a urethane hammer to prevent deformation of the copper inlay and quite frankly is the wiser choice for as soft as cooper is.

@kenthartland8581

I know this thread is aging but I do want to say that while some resins may yellow over time, others won't. Do some research into epoxies, polyester and urethane (water and oil based) resins to get one that won't yellow. Generally, the longer the resin takes to harden, the tougher it is. Also understand it's UV resistance if that is a concern. But for this cool little wire inlay project, I doubt if yellowing or UV is a big deal. Like I said four years ago, neat project, great video and thanks for posting it.

That was so cool! I wonder what would happen if you took a heat gun to the metal bits after putting it in the channels. Looks really magical anyway.

That's so sick looking!

It looks like this would be a beautiful idea for a sword handle

a piece of art, and so is the video

Very nice job. I enjoyed the video & admire how all was done by hand. That being said, hand crafted items may & most likely have flaws. That's what makes them completely unique to production made items.

hey ITM. love your channel and just found you on make :D

I can't imagine a kind of person who would have the patience to do fiddly work like this but not be driven crazy by the gaps. I do appriciate the video though, this might make a neat present for someone. I might have to give it a try sometime.

Suscribed! Wooo! Thank you for the tips, they're going to help me make beautiful things!! So much awesome. :D

This would be cool for a decorative pcb for simple electronics

I have watched this numerous of times absolutely love it

Awesome video!

That was so soothing.

and now I know how it's done. Thanks!

I think that this is on my list of favorite make videos!

Wonderful tutorial. And the music is a perfect compliment to the vid. Liked and sub'd thank you!

I had a eureka moment. I ran 12 gauge wire through my hand cranked pasta machine. I started from the largest setting, and worked my way to the smallest. It was slightly thinner than a dime once I finished. The pasta machines are around 30 to 50 dollars. Picked mine up from Goodwill for a song. Now I will be on the lookout for an electric pasta machine.

So cool!

love it, but what is the background music?

Great video! Thanks!

what brought me here was the photo etching process used in modelling, which i think would make for perfect inlay material.

Ty ~ much appreciated ~ please don’t listen to some people on where ~ they SHOULD know better!

Thanks for sharing. Very beautiful and unique. I’m curious why you choose to make the routes with the hand tool instead of a small router tool on a precision base ? I’m asking because I’m curious about making inlays on our instruments and have been researching what tools people use for this.

Wooow other I can't talk!!! I'm loving this!

Beautiful

Stunning!

Love it. My next project

WOW!!!!!!!!!! KEEP THEM COMING!

Can be solved by using an actual metal hammer to hammer the wire in, This may also make the use of glue unnecessary, tapping the wire into the crevice repeatedly will make it expand to fill gaps, which in turn will create a mechanical bond. They definitely did not make this as nice as they could have.

not sure what i like more the inlay or the music.

Instead of using a rolling mill, which is used to flatten the wire, it's possible to use a spaghetti maker. I used it with mine and it accomplished the same effect.
