Hello, I started making rings about 5 months ago and my bezel setting seem messy and rough. I've included some pictures. Does anybody have any advice on how to make them cleaner, smoother and more...
BTW that is a beautiful topaz ring.

Thanks James. I wasn't aware that cutting a V with three square needle file made it easier. This was the first bezel setting I ever did and it turned out kinda messy. Having fun though. It's so much...
I switched the garnet with a lead glass filled ruby that is a little smaller so it doesn't look so weird. I cut a little frame for it and will cut a seat so I can push it...

I've seen a similar version of that ring made by hand. It's like two pieces that are cut out and then soldered together to make the frame. I'm interested casting too however I haven't looking into...
Thanks, I follow this Italian guy called scaffoal on YouTube and I've been able to imitate one of the pieces he made. I have the ring made and I was trying to set an emerald cut garnet (rub over) but...
Africa Gems has heaps but too expensive as far as I'm concerned

I'm having a similar problem. I'm trying to attach some prongs on to a ring and the solder just balls up and won't liquefy.
