I know youtube is full of stuff like this, but the skill of this bloke had me mesmerised.
No fancy tools, no 'artists' statement "my work is inspired by the glinting of rain in the hair of Peruvian virgins" type malarky, not even any advanced techniques, just plain craftsmanship.
The music grates after a while, and the ring is not to my taste, but I hope one day I have 1% of his talent.
Lovely setup and a very nice diamond collection!

Oh my god, they never found the offender or offenders? Robberies become a great problem - all over Europe.

Actually not, crime trends have been downwards over most of Europe for the last 5 years

I found it funny to be frustrated by his attempts to get pieces to sit in place before soldering. During my next visit to the Hague I'm going to take some of James ' s titanium soldering clamps, I think they may come in handy!
