  • This is one of my most popular designs. In this video I'll show you my process of shaping and engraving a plain band of platinum into an exquisitely detailed ring.
    We decided to just keep the original sound for this video so enjoy the peace and quiet up until the power tools kick in, feel fee to mute and play your own music:)
    Feel free to comment below if you have any questions about the process.

    Great video it looks little like you are using old burs ( with the yellow stripes) for gravers. Can you please tell me what brand (kind of metal ) they are? Thanks

      Sure, I use old carbide burrs. Anything I have to hand but usually Busch

    I notice you have both the grs units and a Lindsay with a collet nose system. Are you able to tell me please if the grs collets actually fit into the Lindsay palm control with the collet nose? I have grs and am about to purchase a Lindsay and it would be handy to know if they are compatible. The information is impossible to find though. Many thanks and great work!😊

    • @ashcroftjewellery
      @ashcroftjewellery  Рік тому +1

      The collets are shorter on the Lindsay you need to use a little adapter (Steve sells them) to use the grs

      You can absolutely do the same with hand push, it just takes a bit longer.

      Improvising to create best possible result always best avenue to achieve great results.
      Somewhat in parallel with painters, a true artist may even use their fingers to create art.
      It worked with this piece, greatly.
