    Check out the new Diamond Mounter side channel!
    Its called 'Diamond Mounter Clips'
    Its compiled of short clips taken from previous videos to
    highlight useful techniques and information I was teaching.
    No intros, no outros just straight to the essence of what
    was useful in the video!
    Calling for new patrons!
    With patrons support I will be able to offer far more information than I am currently able to.
    With nearly 25 years of knowledge gained in the jewellery trade working with some of the best diamond mounters in the UK I can train practitioners of jewellery making, up to and far beyond the skill level usually found in High Street jewellers workshops.
    Become a classic patron and you will not only be able to view part 2 of full instructional guides but also be thanked personally on the next youtube upload! You will also have access to all future uploads 2 weeks before they go live on youtube.
    Official patrons have all the benefits of a classic patron but also gain access to regular exclusive content. Behind the scenes, personal jewellery projects Im working on, I share ideas for future videos, photos and stories from throughout my career as a professional jeweller.
    Also Official patrons are welcome to suggest ideas for future videos and contact me anytime if they need advice for their own jewellery making endeavors.
    Classic patronage is just £5 a month and to become an Official patron costs only £10 a month making Diamond Mounter patronage by far the best value way to gain access to online jewellery making courses.
    As the number of full instructional guides continues to grow the value will be even more considerable.

    I absolutely love the way you teach honestly 🥰 I have adhd and the way you are talking as you're working and the totally Informality of your method actually works extremely well for me because I tend to have to watch the more formal tutorials 2 and 3 times because they have to go so meticulously slow and explain each and every single move and then my mind ends up drifting out in space (adhd is a pain in the ass when you are trying to learn to be a jeweler) I have mastered wire wrapping and all the "no heat" techniques, as I like to call them, and I think I am beyond ready to go for it and move up to the big girls jewelers bench now! 🤣🥰and I was beginning to get frustrated with my attention span or, lack there of, and I was about to give up again for a little while and then I found your channel and I guess it was like divine timing cuz I am totally able to follow you without getting lost in my head!!😘🙏♥ OK except for writing this comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm going to have to go rewind this time and refocus so I can make this marquis black opal ring I've been dreaming of making♥😘🥰 so yeah all of that long winded explanation was just to say thanks for not being so formal in your delivery 💯♥♥🥰😘🙏

      Formally explaining things is so difficult for me. This is the only way I can communicate and Im aware its a bit scatter brained. Happy it works for you! Making jewellery might be good training to get your attention and focus improved.

  • @flyingcheff
    @flyingcheff 3 года назад +2

    Hi Chris! I'm wondering, after you sawed the shape first, did you frase it out to get the stone to sit so nicely, or just the saw? Did I miss a few steps? I am watching closely....love this from sheet setting. Yes, formal; BAH HUMBUG!

    • @DiamondMounter
      @DiamondMounter  3 года назад +1

      Yes 95% getting the stone down was with the saw but i frased it a little also to get the stone down and comfortable

    Hi if you don't mind me asking what rolling mill are you working with in this video. I'm getting ready to lay down some $'s for one. Looking at Pepetools or Durston, More leaning towards Pepetools 130mm because of the cost and parts availability. any input would be appreciated. Thanks
