    Default Bead setting/pave styles

    The past few years I`ve mostly been doing things the more modern way...but I for some reason had an urge to buy myself some hss half rounds & a spitz stick with wooden handles
    Seems there is too much modern stuff & it can look abit too mechanical?

    I quite like the rougher hand done method (I think)! probably likely to look abit messy under the scope but we`ll see.
    May end up having to do a hybrid version.

    Just wondered what you lot think about the different styles..,.?

    It would be very interesting to see the difference in pictures. Dennis.

    So it would Dennis.

    Did find this photo from the mid 90`s....don`t think it`s possible to replicate with modern methods where the stones need to be close together.
    Think this has abit more character than uniformly placed beads? at least you can`t get two jobs 100% identical the old way.
