Oh I will! I have so many things I'm incapable of carving that are on my list to get done - just need to find time to sit and do some drawing.

Wow! That video is amazing and your computer skills are super impressive. I did not expect the answer to be cad. I think that counts me out then as it looks like you need quite a bit of training in that.

About outsourcing, what's the best way to find a jewellery cad designer? And is there anyone on here that I could commission to produce some cad drawings?

2 people on here who do CAD...
I'm assuming Joe would take stuff on as well?

I'm pretty busy at the moment so Its up to you Peter ;-) ? I don't mind doing videos when I get time, A sort of a beginners guide to Jewellery CAD if there is any interest ?

I think I'm definitely going to look into designing for cad. And when I'm ready, I'll have a chat with you Peter.

Just to throw the cat amongst the pigeons as it were,......here is a similar style that I recently made using square wire and tube settings.......

Yes, make or buy a number of collets, solder a length of wire of your choice to each, arrange them in the flat to solder into a secure mesh. I would use triangular wire.

Then make this strip into a slightly undersized ring and stretch it on a ring stretcher. This will size it, round it and harden it. Dennis.
