Just amazing! Thank you so much for your kindness. Bless you!
Eres muy hermoza
Buen trabajo
thanks🙂
Very nice. For those of us who are just starting out, like my self, this is a great video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much. It was very useful for me.
I love this! Thank you for sharing! I am curious though as to why you wouldn't solder the smaller jump loop first to avoid the fiddli-ness?
Great tutorial and very straight forward 👍 thank you 💘
Great video. Thanks for explaining everything thoroughly and in order! It was easy to follow.

Great tutorial! lovely! best I have seen so far!
Thank you Thomas :)
Very pretty
Awesome video thanks! I'll be attempting an oval faceted amethyst this weekend 👌
Good luck!
I've been trying to make these with no guidance you video really helped learn some good tips and tricks. Thanks
I was cutting all the wire into pieces and trying to solder it all at once and they always came out lopsided and were very difficult to hold things together while soldering
So pleased to hear the video helped you! 😊
nice!
Thanks for these videos. They are very helpful. Can you do one on how to make a cathedral setting? Thanks!
Hi Mal, I don't have a cathedral or tiffany style tutorial at the moment and may not be able to do one for a while due to trying to organise the studios being able to reopen but I was sure I'd seen a great picture diagram tutorial over on the Ganoksin website. I've just has a quick look and can't see it but it might be worth you googling Ganoksin stone setting and see what comes up. Otherwise, I'm sure if you ask on one of the jewellery facebook groups, people will signpost you to some tutorials.
I saw a video recently of a jeweler making a basket setting with sheet instead of rings. I'm trying to make a setting for a cushion cut stone and would like to go this route. It looks like this would translate over well enough. Do you have a recommendation on what gauge sheet I should use? It looked like he used a burr and tapered the sheet as well.
This was a really insightful video! May I ask what gauges you used for the basket and the ring?
Glad you found it useful Camy :) I can't remember off the top of my head as it was a year ago but the basket wire would have been either 0.8 or 1mm and I think the ring was 1.5mm square wire.
A question: Why did you solder the larger jump ring into the 'cage' first? I would have started with the smaller jump ring and then put the larger one on top as this would have made both easier to position. What have I missed?
Hi. Your tutorials always inspire me to go try something new right now! Would this setting work with a small rose cut cabachon?
Hi Linda, a basket setting is used for faceted stones really (pointed back) - you may find this page helpful which has lots of stone setting tutorials, including how to make a claw set pendant for a cabochon stone. www.kernowcraft.com/jewellery-making-tips/gemstone-setting-advice
Thanks for posting a difficult setting , having fun with 5mm baskets at the moment. Rolling the solder is a tip well worth using thanks for mentioning it.
Very pretty, love the stone. But, why did you not solder the small ring first instead of trying to work around the larger one?
i'm wondering the same thing.
Kim, same principle applies to teardrop basket? Just melted the first attempt!!!
Thank you! What a craft! May I please ask the make of your watch? In the market for 24 hour & digital. Can tell you value quality!
I loved your tutorial! Could you please tell me the gauge of the wire you used?... you got a subscriber!
1mm is roughly 18ga
I just want the idea of adjusting the silver solder
Muchas gracias por compartir la bendición del Padre del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo estén en tu vida y todos los tuyos gracias buen día bendiciones ❤❤😊😊😊😮😮
Any advice on cutting notches spot on? Mine can never line up with the prongs so I end up moving the prongs.
You can find paper templates of circles with all the angles marked out on them. I think At the Bench do a free download on their website :)
I found a template booklet on Etsy that’s made by Impress Art that I use all the time. It’s really helpful for lining things up spot on!
Excellent again, sadly I went to solder the ring to the setting which decided to collapse, but I will get there. Thanks Kim
My friend, I have melted maaany a basket. Keep up the work, you'll get there.
I do all my work for rings, meaning that all my baskets are for 6mm and under stones. If I can do it, so can you. I taught myself
What's the name of that torch? That looks quite amazing
I am curious, why didn’t you solder the smaller bezel into the basket first?
Hi, it was because the larger bezel is the crucial one in terms of supporting the stone and having the prongs at the right angle. The bottom one, just adds extra support afterwards and if it's sitting too high or low and therefore making the basket too tall or short for your liking, it's easy to remake the smaller bezel so it sits at the height you prefer.
What type of torch do you have?
What torch do you use? :) nice tutorial.
Hi Linda! Kim shares her torch collection in this video: czcams.com/video/yS1zPo0t_K8/video.html&t
What sort of torch do you use please?
Hi Jody, Kim is using a Butane Gas Torch.
Kim has done a previous video on the types of torches available here: czcams.com/video/aYXsZBHEZPk/video.html&t
You can also see our range of gas torches online here: www.kernowcraft.com/products/silversmithing-and-tools/gas-torches
I love your accent.. are you from scotland?
I am! But I've moved around a lot so lost my accent :)
I am making a basket setting with your method and finding it quite easy. Thank you. I love your handheld torch what brand is it? It looks very easy to manipulate.
