I think your new book on 2023 tutorials is a great idea. Everything I need to know about each project. Thanks for creating it

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks for buying it Larry!

[@HeidiLedbetter-fd4jc]

Pretty ring. Looks like a tension prong setting.

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thank you Heidi!

[@SheranSimo]

Great design! I wondered how the setting would accommodate the pavilion within it. Came out beautifully!

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks Sheran!

[@Metalsmithnna]

Nice project Chad! That’s certainly a challenging setting, you did a great job.

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thank you!

[@jwon5614]

That’s really cool!! Beautiful piece as usual!😊

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thank you Jwon!

[@carolchase2086]

Nice look! I Am going to try it!

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks Carol! I like it too. I still didn't quite get the size right on the setting. I don't think this type is very forgiving if the size isn't just right:)

[@dorriepacoe4718]

[@chadssilversmithing]

I've make a nice hard silver solder 😊. Basically i use 70% silver, 25% copper and about 5% maybe a bit more of the zinc. You need play around with the zinc from 5-8% because part of it can burn out while you cook it 😅. But it's works great 👍

[@chadssilversmithing]

Cool Mandrake! I've not made my own before.

[@karie9890]

Just a suggestion.... can you zoom in closer so we can see what you're doing easier.(7:19) We don't need to see the whole work area, just the center 2/3rds. Thanks!! Super idea on the tutorial book! ❤❤🤍🤍💙💙

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks for the advice Karie!

[@alexmarkovic5871]

Nice!!

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks Alex! This setting works better with rectangular stones. Say hello to Andrea:)

[@dallascole8200]

Hello, love your videos. Quick question, what's the torch system you're using? Sorry bro Silver Smith Acetylene and Air Torch!

[@guntherclemenz7416]

chad, that`s is a very good jewelery-art of making a basket-setting, that`s not so difficulty to design and to make Günther Clemenz Germany

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks Günther!

[@mandrakechannel6471]

I wish youtube have a possibility to attach a pictures in the comments 😊

[@chadssilversmithing]

That would be nice, but I get why they don't:)

[@carolhendly4347]

Beautiful ring😊
Ps. Does your torch run in the background?

[@chadssilversmithing]

Thanks Carol:). No, you're probably hearing the exhaust fan.
