- How to Use Bezel Punches to Bezel Set Round Gemstones - This is the fastest and easiest bezel setting technique I know of. It only works for round gemstones but this bezel setting technique works exactly the same for jewelry making whether goldsmithing or silversmithing.

I like the way your nail polish matches the setting tools.
It is the little things in life that bring the most happiness! :)
This was so great to see. Would you share the name of the large box of punches. None of my searches have come up with a set that has a punch larger than 10.00 mm. I have a faceted round stone that is 12.00 mm. By the way, I got your book on soldering some time back, but I was blown away when I came across your videos. I found the book somewhat intimidating (the spectacular jewelry) whereas your videos are so down to earth using your wicked sense of humor. Thanks for taking the time to help us all learn.
Hi Anna I am so glad you have been enjoying the videos. I love sharing my obsession! Any of the tools I feature can be purchased on my tools site, jewelryartstools.com

I grew up in New Jersey, so vulgarity is my native tongue!
@@JewelryArts Thank you so much for getting right back to me with the link. I had gone to your tools page but only saw the smaller round punch set. I will need to save up for this set but it looks like just what I want. Odd that Google did not show it when I searched. Also, I think I would have been right at home in your New Jersey.
@@annamorgan9069 Lol, welcome to our New Jersey! You will love this set, I love mine. :)
Thanks for a great video! Can I ask how you’re holding the bezel so securely in place? It looks like a padded cloth set in the vise, is that right? I’d have thought something like thermolock but if a cloth can do, even better! Thanks for the great videos!
Ah, I used double stick tape to hold my earring to a block of wood and then closed that block of wood in my vise/ engraving ball. I use thermolock quite a bit but I wanted my earring laying really flat and thermolock is not always so great at that. :)
Fantastic! Thank you for such a quick and helpful reply. Very much appreciated :)
@@thomastrudeau2688 You are so very welcome! :)
I have that set, the stone always wiggles out tho or moves, I think I have been hitting it to hard, or maybe the bezel has been to loose for the stone when I have done it.
A tighter bezel will definitely help but just level it with a dowel and go back to setting. :)
How do you get the stone out if you need to make adjustments to the bezel height? It looks so well stuck in there!
You check the height and make any adjustments BEFORE you start hammerring it in. :)
@@JewelryArts I was noticing in a lot of your wonderful videos that you fit the stone in, look at the height, take the stone out, make adjustments.
@@lf9852 Every stone is cut a little different, so there are always small adjustments to be made. :)
Is it a ring?
It is an earring. :)
So much time...
It will be here before you know it! :)
