What our Experts Think
- High-efficiency production setup: Combines the Durston 1312 Quad Jump Ringer with the Ottoflex S Flex Shaft for fast, repeatable jump ring production with minimal setup friction.
- Designed for serious makers: Ideal for jewelers and workshops needing consistent output in soft metals like silver, gold, and copper with professional-grade precision.
- Strong performance-to-value balance: Delivers industrial-style functionality at a more accessible price point compared to full heavy-duty ringer systems.
- Precision and control: Quad coil holder and 20 mandrel system allow accurate sizing (2.5 mm–12 mm) for consistent, uniform jump rings.
- Workshop-ready durability: Built for continuous use in small production environments with stable 1/8 HP motor performance and smooth foot pedal control.
- Efficiency upgrade tip: Best results achieved when paired with proper lubrication, correct blade tension, and non-ferrous wire within recommended gauges for clean cutting and reduced wear.
Q&A
Q: What is the Durston Jump Ring Maker + Foredom Combo used for?
A: It is a professional jewelry production setup designed to quickly produce consistent jump rings from wire coils, then cut them cleanly using a powered flex shaft system.
Q: What does this combo include?
A: It pairs the Durston Complete Jump Ring Maker with a Foredom 230V SR-series flex shaft motor, foot control, and H.30 handpiece, creating a complete coil-to-cut workflow system.
Q: What materials can it work with?
A: It is designed for soft non-ferrous metals such as gold, silver, and copper wire, typically up to around 1.85mm (approx. 13 gauge) depending on setup.
Q: What size jump rings can it produce?
A: The mandrel system allows approx. 2mm to 12mm inner diameters in 0.5mm steps, giving a wide range for chain and jewelry design.
Q: What is the benefit of the Foredom flex shaft in this setup?
A: The Foredom system provides up to ~18,000 RPM with foot control and reversible rotation, enabling smooth, controlled cutting of coils with precision and reduced effort.
Q: Is it suitable for professional use?
A: Yes, it is a bench-grade production system used for chain making and repetitive jump ring fabrication, ideal for workshops needing speed and consistency.
Q: What makes this combo stand out?
A: The key advantage is its integrated workflow: coil winding + precise sizing + powered cutting, significantly increasing output efficiency while maintaining uniform ring quality.
Q: Is it beginner-friendly?
A: It is better suited for intermediate to professional users, since proper setup, safe coil handling, and controlled cutting technique are important for best results.
Maintenance Tips
- Clean after use: Remove metal filings from mandrels, cutters, and machine base to maintain precision cutting.
- Lubricate flex shaft: Regularly oil the inner shaft per manufacturer guidance to prevent heat buildup and wear.
- Inspect cables & handpiece: Check for fraying, stiffness, or vibration to ensure safe operation.
- Keep mandrels clean: Wipe forming rods and cutters to prevent burr buildup and inconsistent jump rings.
- Avoid overloading motor: Use appropriate speed settings and avoid excessive pressure during cutting.
- Check alignment: Ensure cutting blade and coil alignment are correct for uniform ring sizes.
- Store properly: Coil flex shaft loosely and store in a dry, dust-free environment.
- Replace worn parts: Change blades, burrs, or shafts when performance drops to maintain accuracy.
