peter I liked very much your setting , I know most people do the crossed wire mounts I doe not like them when you file the wire of the back it makes the back of the mount flat. another way I doe make the mount is I solder the claws on to the first ring round or pear shaped flat with hard silver solder then nick at the bottom of the claw bend it up the claw is held in place because I have not filed right through the joint . I solder the top ring in then resolder the bottom claws regards ken walker oxford uk
Love your videos - I am teaching myself how to - please do repeat the name of the shining wax at end - I could not hear it well - thank you so much - I am going to try it this week :)
Hello, im not sure if you still see comments on older videos but I had a question. If making a basket setting for something like a ring, do you still use the wire for connecting and then just cut it off?
Yes. However if you ar making a ring the bottom ring needs to be shaped to fit the finger. I show this technique during this course; www.jewellerytrainingsolutions.com.au/courses/oval-basket-ring
Jewellery Training Solutions thank u Peter. Some have said to me make the claws with thinner wire but I actually prefer the look of yore here much much better!! I suppose every piece is slightly different and thinner wire might suit different settings.. Appreciate u letting me know Peter ☺. Loving all your videos so far so far so far so far, I'll check out your website when Iv gone through a few more 😉 ✌ take care
I’ve looked at Otto Frei and Rio Grande for that particular bur - you have used it in another video also. Where can I get one? - Thanks for the Reply - I did get an order in -

Mr Berry does the At the bench channel. Peter responding from Jewellery Training Solutions. The bur is called a cross cut tapered bur, size 1mm. Cheers

How can your explanation on how to work out the length of wire you need to make a jump-ring to go just under a stone work?:- You say - Take diameter of wire times it by 2 - so lets say 2 mm round wire. times 2 times 2 is 4, then deduct that from the diameter of the stone, lets say a 12 mm stone - so 4 MINUS 12 is MINUS 8. How can you use MINUS 8 anything??
@@PhilStevensphilongold I'm hoping you got your answer by now, but he's just saying you take the diameter of the wire, multiply that times 2. Subtract that number from the diameter of the stone you're setting, and that's the size of the rod you need to wrap the wire around to make the right size jump rings for that stone. For example: For your 12mm stone, and 2mm wire... 2mmx2=4. 12-4=8. So you would need an 8mm rod to make the jump rings for that stone, using 2mm wire. That being said, 2mm is too large of wire. 1.2mm is the largest Peter recommends. Hope that was helpful, or even better, unnecessary, since you've already moved on and are making beautiful pieces of your own! :)
Why don't you use small wise for holding the job instead of using your finger to hold the job. if you think the wise jaw will put mark on the specimens you can stick flat wood on the surface of the jaws to prevent any scratches. I am sure you must have small wise in your tools. good work and camera positioning excellent and good explanation. thank you.
Enjoyed your clear instruction, thank you. So refreshing to watch a video about the subject and not the presenters ego. Saved & subscribed.
Thanks Lindsay, yes I agree, educational videos should be all about the subject. Thanks for the thumbs up
The way you do it is sooooooo much easier than the way I was trying to do it based on different instruction. Thank you! Awesome!!!!
You make it seem so simple!! Love it! Thanks so much!!
You make it look so simple Peter. Great video. Thanks so much
Why can’t all tutorials be so well executed and explained?
so clear and calming way of teaching. thank you
My pleasure. Cheers
I really really enjoyed it, it was 🤯
I can not be more grateful to you for teaching me such great techniques ... Thx

Very calming to hear nice voice and to watch good video... Thank you for sharing
Awesome tutorial. It's very clever how you made the bail. Thanks! 👍🙂
I LOVE your channel!!!!
Thank you for this lesson, easy to follow and basic skills to make this wonderful setting. Subscribed.
Great method. Thanks for sharing.
a very good educational video super useful and beautifully done thank you
Buen video colega , gracias por compartir tus conocimientos con todo el mundo , saludos desde lima Perú.
I love it , I need to make one for a large cushion shaped stone, I’m not sure how to go about getting the right shape for my two rings
Excellent clear instructions

Great video, thanks.
Alround work, nice video 🙏
Love your videos - I am teaching myself how to - please do repeat the name of the shining wax at end - I could not hear it well - thank you so much - I am going to try it this week :)
I use a stainless steel polish compound called Hyfin, if you can't find any use what most jewellers use, Tripoli and Rouge
Excellent !!!! Thank you!!!!!
Really good. Thanks,

Also, can you offer where to get a slotting file (which looks super handy)?
Did you solder the top layer?
Very interesting video thanks. I only saw you solder one part on each claw, did you go back and solder the second part off camera ?
Gillian Sprott yes this is the shortened version
Perfectly!!!! Thank you!!!!!
Thank you very nice
Nice
Did you use silver wire? And where would I be able to get some?
Was the wire jump rings and the claws the same thickness of wire Peter? 🤔
ken dalton yes Ken
Jewellery Training Solutions thank u Peter. Some have said to me make the claws with thinner wire but I actually prefer the look of yore here much much better!!

You perfekt teacher
nice idea
i like the video very much....

It's called a cross cut tapered bur. Try Rio Grande Jewelry
What's the stuff you used to mend/ glue the small wired circles??
Solder
I so wish I could learn how to be as good as you. Unfortunately there’s nowhere that teaches jewellery making where I live and I cannot move 😔

I'm having trouble finding your video on how to set the stone once the setting is created. Could you comment the link for me please?
This is the link, it's the second video. Cheers. jewellery-training-solutions.thinkific.com/courses/four-claw-round-basket-setting
How do you decide the thickness of the wire for the size of the stone? I assume for a smaller stone your wire would be a little thinner?
Antonina Amico correct, but no thinner than 0.7mm
Yes correct, but not thinner than 0.7mm and no thicker than 1.2mm
Mr. Berry (or anyone) could you please tell me the name of the burr you are using at @7:24, thank you.

You might need to watch again. The calculation is about finding the right size stake to make the jump rings
@@jewellerytrainingsolutions9978 OK I see now - thanks - it still can't be a minus number though.

FYI You can get 'slotting files' as fret files from guitar makers like Stewmac.com.
Thx Cheers
