Hi from mobeus in Hartlepool

[mobeus]

Hey
Just letting you all know a bit about me, my name is Mark, I've been in the trade for 23 years now, I started as an apprentice with very intensive one-on-one training and very much based around a busy workshop environment, which is an excellent way of learning which designs work and which don't.
I'm experienced in all soldering techniques, finishing styles and stone setting to cover the basics of what I do.
After many years of running a workshop, fixing for many retail outlets, I decided to open my own premises 9 years ago in my home town which has allowed me to pursue design work by specialising in making what my customers want.
Joined this forum to see what it's all about and to enjoy talking to people from all over the jewellery trade, from beginner students to other shop owners.
Take a look at my YouTube site, any feedback on the videos would be greatly appreciated just leave me a comment on the videos or my YouTube page, also let me know if there's anything you might like to see a video of, and I'll keep it in mind if I get a job like that in,
Thanks.
