- Andrew is on lockdown for the next few weeks and is producing films based upon what you want to see. Can you spot the deliberate mistake. LOL
In this film Andrew is setting a facetted stone in the setting he made HERE • How To Make A Claw Set...

Your videos are so nice and educational. It's nice to see someone calmly and politely educate on a topic that seems so daunting and impossible. I always assumed that jewelry making was something people spent years and years of study to get even the basics of, but with your videos and teaching style, it makes me feel like it's something I can actually do myself. Still working on getting my workspace set up but I hope to start very soon, and your videos have already taught me so much.
Thanks again Andrew!
Relax, don't get too frustrated with yourself!
You're keeping it real AND informative!
Those are two of the things that keep me interested in your channel!
Im a newbe and have learned a lot sense stumbling onto your channel. Now that we are locked down in the States also, I have plenty of time to go back and watch all of your videos.
Keep up the wonderful videos and stay safe Andrew@the bench.
Perfect , have been looking for this video for many weeks after making several of the settings , and not knowing how to fit the stones now I do , BRILLIANT THANKS
Thank you so much for this video, Andrew. I had tried exactly this type of setting without knowing it was a 'done thing' and made a hash of it, so having your clear instructions is very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I can rely on these when I get stuck and they keep me busy. Hope you stay safe and sane.
Brilliant I cannot wait to try!! Thanks Andrew as always I take away so much!! ❤
Thanks for the great tip on using reverse on the foredom!
That was a nice, gorgeous, gorgeous video! 😊 Thank you so much!
Great tips that solve some difficulties we had at school. The reverse trick is fantastic!
WOW!! Thanks so much Andrew. Great instruction as ever. Sas
Perfect! I've been wanting to learn how to do this kind of setting. Thanks a bunch!
Loved your video, very inspiring and informative . Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you again Andrew, great work...
Awesome!! I just love your tutorials!! Thank You
Thanks Andrew, beautiful Job!
BRILLIANT USE OF REVERSE STONE SETTING BURRS to cut into claw in a slower, more controlled way. THANK YOU AGAIN & again &....
Loved this. Your videos are so helpful!!
I must stop being satisfied with watching and get on with making. Gorgeous! Thank you Andrew you are keeping me sane! And I so enjoy the bloopers at the end.
Same here!
Thank you! I loved the reverse tip!
Fantastic video as always!
Another great video. Like your tip on running the burr in reverse. Will be using that method. Stay healthy and safe.
This channel is a lifesaver. Discovered while in lockdown and not being able to work or get an income.
I've done stone sculpting in the past, and always wanted to progress into jewellery making.
Thanks for the great content!
@Marie Lily I did it for a while and made some items that I gave away, but never got around to making it a business. Back into IT and computers, lol
@Marie Lily Good for you! Then you will definitely succeed.
Fantastic as usual.
Gorgeous!!!!
Brilliant. Thankyou so much.
Loved this setting no soldering required, again thanks for the detailed info 😊
Andrew:
You are the best! Thanks for the follow up video on setting the stone!

Thank you!!
So responsive. Really appreciate it. 😊😊😊
Thanks for the video Andrew. I love your sigh at the beginning. It's a reminder that making these videos take their toll but very happy to see you just move on from it.
I'm very happy that I found your channel
Wow!! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. 🇨🇦😎
I have my setting from the last CZcams at the ready. Thank you now off to do the next bit....
Thanks Andrew 👍
Thank you!
Thank you 🙌
I love your videos. I haven’t had formal education in jewelry making. Could you please do some videos about hand placement/stabilization of Fordom use for stone setting, sanding etc. also how to change hand pieces would be very helpful.
Tina
Thanks Andy
Thank you !!!
What a beautiful simple setting Andrew. How do now set the stone into this setting and what do you need to do with the prongs?
This was so fun to watch. It would be nice to have some links to your suppliers for stones and wire. I never know if the wire I’m buying is suitable for jewellery making/ soldering etc. The larger gauge wires are very expensive and copper discolours my skin. So I need to be really selective about what to buy.
Thank you.
Hi Andrew, thanks for this video. Question: How do you size the 90° burr to match the girdle of the stone?
thanks Andrew :)
I think I might try practicing this technique using copper, perhaps with synthetic rubies to make a few simple rings.
Hi Andrew!
I love watching your videos. I am wondering if it's possible to solder a small gold embellishement onto a sterling silver band ring. If so, it would be great if you did a video. I'm interested to start working with gold but I want to start with small amounts... Anyways, take care.

As a facetor it always makes me wince watching a stone being being set and file running over the top of it.
Especially the sound of the teeth rubbing the edges of the stone. Filing could be done before stone with burnishing/polishing after stone. I'm sure a hard felt wheel with an aggressive compound would make you wince as well. Well rounded facets eh!
Nice video! Thank you!! Can you also show us how to solder this setting onto a ring??
If you can't run your flex shaft in reverse, save your old burr bits. A dull bit is also less aggressive albeit frustrating when you accidentally mix it in with your sharp ones.
Thanks
What shape of wire did you use to make the setting? Was is with square or round wire. Also, what thickness? Cheers Jeanette. Love your work 🙂
Hi Andrew, what's the largest size stone you could do this for?
Thanks¡¡¡¡
What is the tool you’re using to hold that setting called?
What is the size of the gem you used? What is the size range of gems that can be used with this setting? Outstanding videos!! Thank you so much!!!
I believe he has a video that addresses pairing stone size/shape with prong size/length/number. I remember watching it long ago. There is quite a library for this channel.
So...This type of square wire is only good for small stones?
What do you do if your flexshaft doesn’t have reverse? Another brilliant video.
Just take care and go slowly
Use an old, dull bit. Dull small teeth run smoother than dull large teeth. You can also try using a diamond burr.
Do you have any suggestions for those of us who don't have a reverse setting on our flexshafts?
I can answer myself - I do have a set of very tiny, very fine diamond files. I think I can use the square file to do it by hand.
Thank,you for this great video Andrew, love your tutorials. Best wishes @cazwadejewellery
Dear Andrew, now that you have perfect setting, how do you harden it so it doesn't deform when used?
You don’t need to harden it to be honest
I been wanting to make silver spring brooches and have seen so many disagreeing philosophies on hardening, was hoping you could sometime do an episode sometime on tempering. Thank you Sir
@@moxnyx9451 puttin them in with shot in a tumbler helps work harden, Melissa Muirs channel she did a video on this a month or two ago, should be easy to find. She shows different ways to work harden such pieces. This piece Andrew made would be good an solid I reckon 😉
@@Ken_Dalton thank you :)
Had this setting been soldered to something it may be annealed. To address the softness, do the soldering before you do the bending out of the prongs. The prongs will be work hardened in the process.
In jewelry making there is an order of operations (similar to math's pemdas) that needs to be figured out for each project that addresses finish, durability, function, etc of the desired end result.
Maybe Andrew will address this at some point if he hasn't already.
