Happy Sunday! Thank you for your question Mike, on how I went about creating the underbezel in the Handmade Sapphire Ring video. (link to that below) I hope we do well enough to explain it in this one.
Handmade Sapphire Ring video link: • Handmade Sapphire Ring...
Let us know if there's anything we've missed or if there's anything anyone else would like to know about this process!
Thank you for guiding the channel - next week is another MANUFACTURING video, excited to share it with you.

I have only paid for 1 tutorial in my time teaching myself goldsmithing, about 3 years. this is because im crippled and dont make enough money to afford to learn. this deserves payment, its pure gold, and if i ever make it, im comming back to throw you 50$ for this. thank you for not being more concerned with money
Thanks Jaco you are bringing back memories for me going back nearly 40 years ago
Thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge. Take care and have fun!
Thanks for this 😊
Greetings from AUSTRALIA good tip well explained regards

Hi John, thanks for that. I was worried it wouldn’t make sense.
im gonna have to watch this a couple times and practice this a couple of times too... thank you for this information!
It’s a blast when it all comes together Marcos 👌🏻
Fantastic stuff and explaination!
🙏🏻🙏🏻
As a self-taught metalamith (yes, I still swim in the silver sea, for now...) I am severely and excruciatingly grateful for good training on RUclips. There is a plethora of horror out here - the blind leading the blind-er (how much solder is legal to use)? When one finds a real RUclips gem (not a simulant), it's something to celebrate! Thank you.
This is so lovely to hear. Thank you for this. I come from a self taught world too. Before RUclips there was nothing but secrecy. It was trial and error all the way. This channel is me giving back to ‘my younger self’ people who didn’t have guidance or formal training so I’m almost explaining it to myself. I’m so glad you like what we do here. It means that we are doing the right thing 🙏🏻
What an amazing video
Cheers Leo 🙏🏻
your amazing flat plate construction is a dying art
Hey Klint, plate construction is so much fun. Just doing my part to keep it going 😊
@@jacothejeweller thank you for keeping it going : )
That's so helpful! Thanks!
You are welcome Ricois. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Thank you ♥️
😊
Thanks for everything..
Ahh Nicolas, such a huge pleasure. I get so much back from all these wonderful comments. I thank you right back 🙏🏻
The good vibes of harmony and beauty brings us together..nomatter where we are..there is no space and time..art makes us better humans..more sensitives....take example our work..filling..soldering..every part is sensitivity snd sense..nit straight skills..you begin to observe people objects..colours. The light..you begin tounderstsnd snd love more..and diing the one rule of the universe .whatever you give you take it back..plenty..so prefer to give love..love is the drug..as brian ferry says..greetings from athens greece..

Love the caring and sharing of this subject also enjoyed you way of how you explain how to make a collet for and emerald cut stone ive been watching your story for sometime now, and i do enjoy your insight into handmade jewellery and find it very refreshing see your style of making, i look forward to more interesting episodes...
Cheers Paul and thanks for that. We are having fun making these videos and it’s wonderful to hear that you are enjoying the channel.
thank you that was perfect you answered all my questions
You’re very welcome, thank you for your question. 😊
I am so happy to have fond this video and this channel. I was trying a totally different approach. Taking a strip of metal folding it in a rectangle shape, soldering that then sawing of some edges so I can fold it back in to get the "pyramid" shape. It works... But the angle is a little different on the long side vs the short one. It doesn't look very clean. Super excited to try this method!
Let me know how it went 👍🏻
Great video! This is such a niche topic 😅 Kudos to you for sharing what we do with the world👍
Thanks Zach 🤘🏻
Top shelf knowledge sharing, many thanks from Maine!
Thanks for the support John - so cool to see where everyone is from
thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, it's so generous of you and your explanation is so well done (so few people are able to explain what they're doing when they're making jewellery, let alone well, and give reasons for why they are doing things in certain ways :P). i'll definitely try this - so far i've just drawn on a thick piece of metal, sawed out the centre etc. and you end up losing so much metal that way. i'm also curious to see how well this works for stones that aren't cut so well, and maybe this time i won't cry as much bahaha
Alisa, so kind of you to say 😊 I’m so glad you enjoy the video - I am getting such great comments and it gives us motivation to keep going. Let me know how it goes 💪🏻
@@jacothejeweller i’m really looking forward to more 😄 is trying this out on an emerald cut stone with tiny corners a dumb idea?

@@alisa.maks26 have a look at the sapphire video I did last week. The emerald shape works great for this plate work.
That’s how I do it but without the paper
Would love to know how to draw the geometry for the underbelly designs used in many designs
Hi Fiona, so sorry - I just saw this comment. Those are fun indeed. I will add this to my video list to discuss in detail 🙏🏻
Hi, I love your videos. Thanks for sharing. When making the 17° lines from the top of your bezel, down through the bottom of the bezel, and to the intersection point, how do you determine where the intersection will be? In other words, the distance from the top of the bezel to the intersection point, is that arbitrary or is it based on the 17° drop? And if you come down at that angle, the drop distance will be determined by the angle. That makes sence to me, i guess i answered my own question but i've struggled to understand this and have several books that are super vague about how that distance is determined lol. Anyways, i'd love some clarification... im going to pull out the protractor and do some experiments. Thanks!
Yep, the angle brings the points together 👍🏻 if you message me on Instagram (jacothejeweller), I will post you the extract from where I learned it which might be handy.
Hi Jaco, how much should I add to each length to account for a bezel setting? 20%? Maybe more?
It’s a tough question. Size matters a lot here - but always work bigger too and bottom if you aren’t certain. The shape is the important part here and I would have 3 to 4 mm to both ends to make sure you have a safe amount to file and cut. Good luck 👍🏻
Can you produce handmade jewelry for us based on our wax positive? How do we get in touch?
Hey Dream Store 👋🏻 you could direct message me on Instagram. Most folk have direct chats with me that side 👍🏻
