Reshaping Claws to Improve a Ring Mount

Yes this mount again.
As I proceed with it, the next challenge it has thrown at me is to make the claws look symmetrically positioned on both the top and lower bezels. Its proving difficult as the top bezel is a slightly dodgy shape. Fun!

I am greatly inspired by your videos! They were a turning point that allowed me to earn as much as I do today. Your teaching method is incredible, congratulations on your knowledge and thank you for teaching us!

trying to heat the structural support stick and pull it out...lets be honest we all knew it wouldnt work well lol. but its good to show the diff ways to do it, i think the reason it worked so well the second time is because you heated the stick by itself instead of heating the setting much at all. the framework is beautiful and i cant wait to see how the stone will be set without bending the frame or chipping the stone, gonna have to cut the seat fairly deep or tall to get them to bend properly.

I wonder what it’s like living in Japan as a jeweler
