So excited I found you, someone I can understand and the directions are amazing. I'm confident I can do this but now I feel as though I have someone by my side guiding me!

i really like your style , thanks
Thank you so much for your support!
We are just happy to be here 😊
Good advice well done 👍🏻 😊
Thank you. 😊🙏
Cheers boet fond memories reminds me how at times the burr gets hot against my skin.
Blood sweat and tears this job 😁
I absolutely love this and how you explain everything so well thank you, do you have a tutorial on how you make a basket setting for example like a double gallery setting like this one ☝🏼 I have a 12mm asscher cut pink amethyst and I can’t find a vid on what to do anywhere plz help, I just need something that gives me the basic kind of guid so that I can convert it if I’m sound a emerald cut or round etc. i would be eternally grateful 🥲 also what gauge wires to use for the size of stone would be useful no one ever mentions that 😅❤
Ah I’m so glad, it’s such a pleasure. Thank you for your comment, we’d love to help. I actually have two asscher cut diamonds that I’m building settings for in the next 2 weeks so we will definitely be covering this soon. 🙏
Good question about the size of the wire, we’ll address this in a short this coming week or in the asscher-cut video for you. 🌞
@@jacothejeweller amazing thank you 🙏
@@jacothejeweller thank you so so much you guys are amazing 🥹💓🙏
Hi buddy - just to give you the 'heads up' - the burr you used to cut out part of the claws , we call a Heart burr - see Cooksons Item No: 999 6384 - and the other burr we use for setting is a 'Setting burr' - see Cooksons Item No: 989 130
I know you know what you are doing, but the right names might help you one day.
Cheers

Hey Phil, I tell you it can get confusing moving around the world. I’m using a bearing cutter (like 41490 - Cookson) here. I prefer these for their angle over the heart. Don’t get me started on names buddy - it’s been like learning a whole new language 😂
@@jacothejeweller I don't see much difference between a 'Heart' burr and a 'Bearing cutter' myself. I know what you mean about learning new languages - I lived in France for 15 years and Germany for a while - I got to the stage when I could not remember the the correct word in a particular language, but I knew it in another language. Most confusing!
Have a great Sunday. Phil
Another trick to stop the burr flying around the claw is the set your 'Flexidrive' or Micromotor to spin backwards. This stops the burr from being so grabby!. Phil
This is true - I have tried it and it works a treat 👌🏻
Are you heating your shop with your torch?
😂 funny you should say that John - on the day of filming my heater went out. This will be my last winter in this space 🥶
Thanks for such a great video. I wondered if you could spell the name of the tool you used to round the ends of the claw "prongs"? You called it a "cup phrase"? I can't find anything with that spelling so not sure if I misundertood the word... Thanks!

Thanks for the comment, I get this a lot. The tools are named differently all around the world. I’ll try and link a few in future videos.
@@jacothejeweller Thanks a lot - Cup Burr seems to be the thing to look for! Makes sense. Appreciate it.
Diamonds can handle more pressure. I cut Colored Gemstones. I don't make the jewelry. How would you handle an Emerald?
@@RoysFineGems emeralds are sensitive stones to set - you have to be more careful around those and some others. It must reflect in the cutting too?
The claw!!
Four of them!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻👈🏻!!
How come you didn't scratch the stone?
