  • This is how I've been making stone settings for nearly 28 years.
    The trick, is to not give up. If something goes wrong, just keep on going.
    Future videos will have the sounds of the workshop too.
    Any suggestions, please comment.

    I’m been a Goldsmith for 49 years I love to see other jewelers hand made heads and the tools they use great work your doing a good job.

      Thank you very much. Not enough jewellers share the full secrets and leave people guessing the middle bits of the process, so thought it was about time to share. There are some fun projects to come too though.
      Thank you for commenting. It really helps my little channel.

      Ah thank you. It's much appreciated. I'm still a very new and small channel. There were some words about the music and sound levels on this one. So was kind of a practice one for me, but it seems it was viewed a lot. I will one remake this one when I get a lot better at the video and editing stuff.

    As a total amateur, using a tig welder and pencil grinder, it's refreshing to hear someone with so much experience just starting out doing something, like video, and being humble. That being said I think the video is great quality for learning. Perhaps doing 2 videos, one in depth long form like this, and one with just music would be a useful format. Love the music choices, and great tips. I've always wanted something like this, thanks, and good job. I loved it. Keep it up, please. 🤘

    • @metalofhonour
      @metalofhonour  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated indeed. There is a much shorter video without commentary on a six claw version. But I'll definitely keep it in mind for future videos.

      I will be doing a video on that at some stage, but I have a list of videos to make first. I'll be doing a lot more tutorials in the future. The key is to just keep going. Not getting disappointed in mistakes and keep pushing forward. I'm sure my video editing and recording will be better by then too. 🤣

    Sterling or fine? What do you mean when you say silver? Aren't settings usually fine? Thanks for all you are sharing.

    • @metalofhonour
      @metalofhonour  Před 19 dny

      I can't honestly remember what I said in a video this far back. If I say fine, I normally refer to jewellery style or approach to making.
      The only time I speak about fine silver is when alloying down gold. Or sometimes saying never use fine silver in jewellery. It normally a beginner thing where people use that silly fine silver bezel strip, and I always tell people not to use it.
      I hope this helps. I don't personally have time to rematch the video.
      If you ever notice anything else. Make a note of the ti.e I say it and I'll happily have a look and clarify. Questions are always welcome. 👍🏼

    • @metalofhonour
      @metalofhonour  Před měsícem

      Hi. Thank you for commenting. And thank you for the kind words. My actual business is all bespoke work specialising in Platinum. But currently I'm keeping the business and CZcams very much separate. It really depends on the way I take the channel. If it does too well, I don't want to fully reveal my address as things could go very wrong. Sorry. It may change though. Really depends on future security.
      Many thanks again.

      Edit. I've just checked and subtitle work in Spanish for me. I just had to press the cc icon, then in setting click on which language to auto translate too. And it works fine.
      Thanks for feedback. As far as I know, youtube subtitles cc should give you Spanish subtitles. I will check the settings though. I appreciate your thoughts on this.
