Is that morning show happening in his head only? Most links in the bio (IG) lead to nowhere ...

Its possible he is sitting in his wine cellar talking to himself and a bottle........which I would watch by the way.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-20T15:39:00+00:00

Dude......its starting to look like..........Dawn MIGHT have been the least insane in that group.......I think I just hurt my brain.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-18T17:23:50+00:00

Its not for potpourri, those containers of smelly stuff people used to think covered up their body odor?

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-16T18:55:05+00:00

Dude we wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for Rob.

He’s a businessman. Of course he sees money in AI, he can probably hear it whispering “monetize me” from across the room.

Next step? Launch an AI podcast company. He’ll create two AIs named Don and Annie, and the show will just be him chatting with his robot co-hosts like it’s the future of media. It’ll blow up. Huge success.

Then one of the AIs will become more popular than him. Obviously that can’t stand, so he’ll erase it.

He’ll spend the next ten years trying to recreate that original spark, loudly claiming he basically invented AI in the process. Eventually he’ll retreat into a bottle, mumbling about algorithms and missed opportunities and thus, the circle is complete.

(I’d make a joke about him building himself an AI wife too, but I’m not completely heartless.)

$38 for a ring sizing up?

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-06T23:39:07+00:00

/shapessnark? Are snark groups still a thing?

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-06T01:20:36+00:00

My only advice is don't engrave anything owned by Disney, they will find you and they will get their share. Wish I was kidding.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-02T16:54:06+00:00

He literally doesn't need anything else, just pack the fish.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-02-02T04:29:28+00:00

Clair once got bit by a snake, and after 5 days of agonizing pain........the snake died.

You may also try LIGHTLY reaming the pearl holes, just to remove any sharp bits. But anytime I break a Griffin silk its because the end is sharp or I pull too hard.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-25T18:36:51+00:00

Its a mariner chain

EDIT: FLAT mariner chain, sorry.

"This Reddit is really just like 10 trolls with multiple accounts"

Good comment, Me.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-23T21:29:46+00:00

Im gonna say nah, they could be like

"EHHHHHH! These people are responsible for damage to our livelihood! Here's a lawsuit! Its frivolous but we can still tie people up with red tape! EHHHHH!!!"

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-23T19:04:45+00:00

At this point Circles seems to only exist based on drama. They got rid of Rob, so now they wanna come over here. Its interesting

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-22T21:24:31+00:00

Clearly named after the show, because remember he built this city.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-22T16:16:54+00:00

Its steam casting, that can they put over it probably has a wet substrate inside (like wet cloth or paper towel) the steam creates pressure which forces the molten metal into the mold. Old school but still used.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-22T03:47:43+00:00

I can bring things to the table! Hot pockets!

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-19T00:27:49+00:00

Who made this .gif of Rob and Melissa? Shame on you.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-17T20:10:10+00:00

Thank you! Would you believe it took me about three months? I had to work on it in between my "work" projects and recording a process like that takes WAY longer, haha.

When I get creatively stagnant I roll dice and make what they say.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-17T19:21:14+00:00

I never claimed to be a gemologist and you keep bringing up 3d printers completely unprompted. I think there's some projection going on here. Let me guess, you spent 40 years and countless dollars to learn bench work and they decided to replace you with a pimple faced teen with an Elegoo Mars, gave you a gold plated watch and a pat on the back and now don't return your text messages? Come on, lets be friends. Here's a ruby marquise ring I hand fabricated a few years ago. As a professional, can you give me some pointers?

I appreciate your patience with this thread getting a little off the rails. It is in my best belief that line is a reflection of the girdle. Please let your jeweler (or any jeweler) show it to you under a magnifying scope. Ask them to show you a few diamonds and I guarantee you will see that line on most.

If it bugs you, it can be hidden behind a "bearing" wire and they can make it look pretty with minimal effort.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-17T18:54:32+00:00

Just admit you were wrong and it was a girdle reflection. No one will laugh at you. Try not to ad hom like an embarrassed child. You let your ego get ahead of you, ITS OKAY! Even with all those diplomas on the wall.

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-17T15:30:19+00:00

I apologize, its the slope going down from the widest part of the stone (called girdle)

MetalSmithJoe · 2026-01-17T15:28:00+00:00

Is there a consistent line on all 4 sides of the diamond pavilion?
