Thanks Soham for the small cab technique! I'm a Turq. Miner struggling with advancing into intermediate silver jewelry work.Videos like yours are helping me along!
As a newbie I love your videos, so easy to follow. The little trick of using a tube to set small cabs is brilliant! Thank you so much. Looking forward to the next one.
Hi, I have watched many videos to try to learn these silversmithing techniques but still had no confidence. Your precise, thorough manner is so easy to follow, you are easy to listen too, and your work is a standard I aspire to as a new jewellery maker. I continue to learn so much from watching your videos it has helped me grow in confidence and ability. Thank you and please continue to share your knowledge in more videos. I'm sure many more like me appreciate your work.
Love that! I would need to use sheet as I do not have a rolling mill, so thank you for including instruction for that.I feel like Christmas has come to my email box whenever you upload a new video. I so look forward to them! =)
I love all of your instructional videos.. they are so helpful and educational. I wish I could come and be an apprentice under your leadership. You're so awesome.. thank you so much
Didn't get to finish prior post. Shear madness. Never thought of tubing. I have a little tube cutter, which may not work as well, but I'll find out. Some of my little 4 mil stones are ovals, 4 by 6, or something, don't remember. So I'll be looking for oval tubing, should there be such a thing. My stones are a mix of bloodstone, onyx, and chalcedony; a hodgepodge. I plan to mix them up on a wider band. Thanks for all the new tips here. (Such as filing a flat space, and your stone setting tool.)
Quick question on tube settings. I am having a difficult time stabilizing small pieces of tube while preparing the stone seat. I am using a small drill press and vise however the tube spins/moves etc. thinking of tack soldering to a larger flat so that I can stabilize the darn thing and then remove it from the flat prior to positioning on the target piece. is there an easier method ? worried about heating and reheating, fire scale etc

Just so simply impressive. thank you..
Wonderful. Thanks
Thanks Soham...nice
your work is so clean. thanks for sharing your knowledge.

That’s lovely.
Where do you buy your small cabs for the bracelet?
Do you know where I can get thin wall silver tubing online (3mm and 4mm inside diameter)? I can’t find it anywhere.

use a hand piece not a drill and wedge the tube onto a tapered piece of wood like an artists brush or BBQ skewer
Hi Soham, you mention in a few of your videos a tripel-e what is that ?'
Tripoli is a polishing compound. Buddy
