- Sounds like a simple task just to finish off the bezel but there are plenty of tips to be shared in this film.
Andrew also shows you how to successfully solder on a jump ring to the bezel too.
Previous films showing how Andrew made up the perfect bezel here • How To Make An Oval Be...
and soldering on the backplate • How To Solder a Bezel ...
This film sees Andrew showing you several techniques for managing to solder on that bezel onto a backplate. You don't need anything fancy or any extra equipment. You don't need clamps nor binding wire. These just make your life more complicated and are time consuming. And who doesn't want to get the right result first time with no messing about?

I had never seen someone who could teach this subject like Andrew. He is the best tutor ever.
i love the detail you give in your explanations. as a beginner i had to watch atleast 20 videos from other creators just to find out whats in the pickle solution lol. calling it pickle isnt helpful if we dont know how to make it. Ive watched about 5 of your videos today and will come back to them to complete this project when i have all my tools ready. Please keep making these videos. one of the most valuable youtube channels on the jewellery manufacturing topic. Thank you for telling me whats in the pickle. lol
It is time for me to go to bed, and yet... Here I am watching a second video of yours. I will need to watch the next ones tomorrow. I have learned more in the 2 videos I watched than all the classes I have taken. I feel like I am getting one on one attention instead of sharing the teacher with 8 students. Just awesome! Watching from Utah, USA
Andrew people who give you the thumbs down 👎 are idiots and are not serious about learning how to make jewellery the right way . I love your RUclips channel and I have learned a lot from you 🤗
rose murraylee DITTO!
You are a good lecturer and I enjoyed every second. 😊 ❤❤❤❤❤
Floating the solder on the jump ring👍
Shame on those people that thumbs down your videos!
I've learned a great deal watching these.
I love the solder into a ball. Brilliant I said in my fake English accent.
TY so much!
bloopers hehehe there a good addition, definitely not me with the thumbs down. Thanks again Andrew for sharing your tip.
Mr. Berry was born to teach, a treasure to the craft!
Second time watching your video. You are an absolute legend. Thanks very much. 😊❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Andrew, you helped me to make a very delicate solder and made me figure out that borax gives amazing results! I follow you from Belgium ;) Thanks for the bloopers :D
Your content and tips are absolutely BRILLIANT. Thanks for the great content!
You're brilliant
I could easily sit here and watch your videos, over and over. You are wonderful at teaching. I'm so stoked I found your chanel and will keep watching/learning!
Love the way you are able to convey the techniques. Excellent teacher. Thank you
First time seeing your videos. I am new to metalsmithing and I love the way you teach. You have a new subscriber.
All thumbs up here in New York! I'm l learning the craft and you're videos are priceless. I'm now soldering with confidence.
I've been really enjoying your channel, Andrew. After a 20 years hiatus from silversmithing and working as a web developer, I'm working on going back to my silversmithing for work. Your films have really helped me brush up and review the skills and techniques I used to use on a daily basis. Thank you!
Thanks Andrew. I too am returning to the workbench after an extended (say 20 + years)h iatus in the IT field. Like riding a bike mate, like riding a bike. Cheers!!
Love all your videos but would love to see more videos on creating mounts of different shapes like baguette, triangle or square.
Dont worry about the thumbs down, it all counts as "engagement" for youtube so its actually better than them not clicking on either.
You are an AWESOME INSTRUCTOR!!! I have learned sooooooooo much from you! Thank you AB!!!
Best teacher thank you
Thumbs up from me. An eager learner. Now addicted to your videos. Thank you from australia
By far the best explanation, and demonstrations for beginner's, with so many simple tips.
Great camera work, with good close-ups to see what's really going on, on the bench, and to follow along at home or in your own studio.
I've never turned to RUclips for help, but now I'm following keenly for more tips of the trade.
Thank you for your Chanel!
Thank you for sharing 🌸
That's beautiful.
Great job!
Thanks Andrew!
Great tips on soldering the jump ring on. Thanks Andrew!
Great tips and techniques. Thanks for sharing!
Love the bloopers! Thumbs up here.
You make it look so easy Andrew!
Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us! You're always super detailed!
Thank you for sharing your skill and talent. I appreciate the "tempo" of your instructions, as well as the "what if's" and what "not to do". Great instruction!
Always find your vids helpful :)
Best advice and great bloopers 😁
Love the video as alway and the out takes are a great addition.
Great video Andrew thank you.
Love your videos!
Outstanding teacher. Thank you for sharing.
Great video, Thanks
awesome ideas!!
Thank you! great explanations.
Hi Andrew. I really enjoy your teaching method. Easy to listen too and how you introduce the correct method as a suggestion or hint / tip. without offending the wrong method 👍
I ABSOLUTELY love this channel. I’m exited to start silversmithing.
I loved your video, always learn something, plus your bloopers are so funny!
Thanks Andrew for the : red buffer & the white polisher !!! You rock
this video was extremely helpful to me... thank you
This was so good I actually feel intimidated.. lol!! I learn so much from your videos! 👍👍😊
I love these vids by this guy! Pure gold education.
I am not the person with the thumb down. :D
Your videos are grate an I like, that you are sharing them with us.
Keep it up, mach weiter so!
Grüße aus Deutschland.
I love your videos! Thank you!
That is perfect!
Love your videos 😀
Also, thanks for the tip on the nylon bristle brush in your top 10 video. I will give that a try.
Always great fun when a new video arrives! The info is great and the bloopers were hilarious! The thumb down peeps must be jealous of you!
Great project to practice a number of processes, expertly explained. Thanks Andrew.
Great video
Thank you
Andrew, you have skills! I’ve been a long time subscriber, long time member of At The Bench, and a forever fan. Always a thumbs up! Where are your Vlogs?
Fabulous video! Love the fact your blade broke (not because I’m being sarcastic) because it’s good to know it isn’t just me who brakes them so easy. Thanks Andrew. Would love to know if you will be doing classes when your able to?
Great teacher, I am trying my first bezel very soon
Thanks for making such great u tube tutorials....so many practical tips/techniques for getting the job done in the best way possible. You make it look easy , I know it isnt..but willing to try with your excellent instruction to help me.
Thank you Andrew, great video.. am taking bezel settings and I need more information about it.❤
Andrew is my sprit animal
🤭
THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge! Thanks to you I´m not not only an osteopath, I’m also a jewellery maker:) I want to learn NOW, so when I want to learn a new technique, I’ll just go to you or Melissa Muir or Soham Harrison.. You’re my heroes!!!
Love the blooper reel.....
Great!
WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE? No matter how much I practice and study (elsewhere), I always learn something from you Andrew (the avoiding solder while filing to save the metal quality - great!). What solder did you use for the jump ring? The base join didn't even get close to melting which suggests perhaps a large temp differential on the two solders. I love the jump ring getting sucked onto the bezel - COOL! My question: What are the cons of having a (tiny) bit of solder in the reuse of metal (what does it look like, do, etc.)? Who is that [thumbs down] person, and what IS their gripe? I'm guessing jealousy, grouchy, needs a hug...etc. if there is no ownership of the thumbs down. WASN'T ME!!!! :)))))
Dont assume another person's reason. You don't know it?
Thank you so much سپاسگذارم
Thanks for your vids, you've got a new subscriber!
Great and informative video! Hoping you see this question: for someone just starting out, please share the list of tools and equipment you use to make the bezel. Or links where to purchase them. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much
Thank you ♡ hope you're safe ♡¡
Das ist so gut erklärt finde ich klasse danke
Lovely,like your accent
Berry, meu brother. Não understand sua linguagem Very bem, but eu like só muito. Learn sou a lot. Thank you thank you
Andrew, your presentations are the best. Ever sense I've discovered you on RUclips I'm following only you and your way of work. Thanks to you, I've found interesting hobby and really enjoy it. As an older person and on disability, I'm making most of my tools and purchasing only what I can't make my self. My question is about a crucible. What is the best material to make it from, or what are the ingredients in case I have to form one by my self. Again, I love your videos and can't wait for the next one. Thank you and Greetings from Canada - Henryk
Is it just for melting silver and stuff u need a crucible for? U can buy small silica ones on ebay or Amazon for under 5 dollars.. Or if its a big crucible for a furnace. You can purchase those for about $10 too,.. Andrew did a video a few films back about his electric furnace and he talksaloy about crucibles in that one. It might give u some ideas.. When i started i thought of ways to make one too untill someone shared a link with me about the silica dishes and thats what i use now. I hope i gave u some food for thought but im sure Andrew will give you far better advice than me when he reads your lovely comment.. Best of luck from Ireland 🍀
No thumbs down by "that person"! 😉He/she must a salty hater lol.. I hope u thought u can see who the person is if its your channel? 🤔. Always a thumbs up from me Andrew! U are prob the one who inspired me the most to get started at this game!! And iove it!
As always, great video, great teacher! If you haven't subscribed...why? And that bell? Hit it!!!
Have you made a video about making a bezel setting without a backing plate, like around a lens?
It's called a spectacle setting, I've been hoping to find that for a long time... Great idea!
@@flyingcheff I've done a couple but find it difficult. I've wanted to see if someone else has a better method.
@@moretimethanmoney8611 Same here - here's hoping :)
Hi Andrew - Love your films but I work exclusively with Argentium Sterling instead of Regular Sterling, for many reasons including 'I hate fire-scale' and I love that the Argentium stays tarnish-free for a long time. Could you do some more videos showing how to do what you do, if you're working with Argentium Sterling because sometimes the rules are different? and there are very few videos on Argentium and tons of videos on regular sterling. Thanks.
Andrew, I also prefer argentium and echo Carol's request above.
Hey Andrew, you’re videos are super helpful. I just started soldering, and I’m having the toughest time soldering the bezel to the sheet metal. You make it look so easy, but I must be doing something wrong, I cannot get it to melt. I’ve cleaned the metals a bunch of times, used the flux, applied the heat correctly, but the chips are so stubborn and just won’t melt! Am I missing something?
Thank you so much for all your videos! I’m a beginner and any time I want to learn how to do something, your channel is the first one I check. You’re greatly appreciated!
Brilliant. I would really love to know the grades of solder you used Also I want to set /suspend a bezel with a backplate between two points Wondering soldering wise if it’s better to solder backplate to points first then add bezel or vice versa
Fantastic video! What grit buff stick do you recommend using?
Great videos Andrew. I have a wide V shaped (almost a heart) Opal and would like to make a free form bezel. for it, Willyou please show us a free form bezel making tutorial? That would be awesome! Thanks.
Why don’t you polish after you set the stone? Wouldn’t the bezel get too hard to set the stone after you clean/polish? Thank you love your videos!!
Hi Andrew, are the black nylon brushes any good, as compared to the white nylon brushes? They don’t seem to have them here in Aus but they look soooo handy! Thanks for all the great videos :)
Mr berry is a visual learners wet dream 😂😂😂😂😂
Me......I am the visual learner 😭😭😭
I love seeing the Silver work, and hope to be able to afford it some day.... but for now I have to work in the lesser expensive... copper..... so I have been watching your videos like a mad woman, and wonder if using silver solder on copper makes a difference or if there is copper solder... I have not gone shopping as of yet, because I want to be sure of what solder I want to use before I get it, and what I have priced around here is a bit high.... I am also looking for what I should purchase for the long run, I cant purchase a little butane now.. over and over... if I could purchase one set up of propane that would last a year.. end result saving money... if that makes sense... but would that be smart idea working in my den.? Do you have a suggestion? I am not totally unfamiliar with silver smithing, but untrained, and have to teach myself.
since work.
Hi Andrew. I’m regards to clear stones like a pink tourmaline cabochon, do I need to put a white paper with the plate as a backing???
Well , first of all , thank you very much , as ever , for this masterclass . as regards the thumbs down , and you are at 3 atmo , one can only hope that one day the person/s will have the decency to explain their esteemed opinion , and no doubt link us all to their , better , tutorial : chance would be a fine thing .
Mr. Berry, what is the name of your larger hand torch. I bought a Dremel one , really disappointed. Please respond. As always great technique
so after you use pre-polish do you later use some other polish paste for the final finish?
hi andrew can you use silver with solder on it, can you melt it down and make things from it as long as you do not mark it 925 but mark the item as silver, i know the quality is lower but my thought is when you look at silver from other parts of the world where the silver content is much lower than ours by quite some distance.
Would it be possible to file the joint of the jump ring in order to further hide the solder joint binding the jump ring to the pendant?
Why do you join the jump ring on the non-join side of the ring? It seems like you could complete 2 operations at once if you soldered the join of the ring onto the bezel. Thank you, Andrew. I looked for this question but didn't see it yet....
What grain sandpaper are you using to buff? This is a video I needed to see. Thank you!
Always use 600 grit
how would you join several jump rings around the bezel, one at the top and 3 at the bottom for hanging beads from?
You were lucky with that back plate it nearly slipped over the edge but I guess the plate was not quite level and it slid a little, thanks tho’ and I’ve watched all three and learnt a lot
