Hi everyone,
I bought some loose 1mm trace chain from cookson not really thinking about how to go about soldering jump rings etc to it. From my initial look at it I cant imagine i can ever loop a...

This just blows my mind, a reality check of how very little i know about stone setting. Truly remarkable work as always, is this stainless did you say? Is that tough to work with/drilling?

Hi emily, sounds like an exciting time for you! look forward to seeing your work
Josef those wedding rings look brilliant, the engraving is very crisp from the cast. Have you sharpened that up after casting or is that how it looks from the cast? Lovely stuff
wow thanks patstone, I polished last night and it looks so lovely now. I think my mum will want to keep it now :)
Thanks for all the advice! Within the first few minutes talking to this customer I immediately new he was very picky. The decision to maybe cast it is so it wont have a soldar line as the last ring i...
