Chris, I hear you about " the devil is in the detail", and being "optically balanced". I have yet to set a ring, tho I do put attention into detail for earrings and wax carving a piece to be part of a ring, currently working on. Really love your work. Thanks for another great video.

I feel like jewelry making has a lot of potential. It's like labor and free market contracting all in one.

Caution to the newbies: a halfround flat file doesn't seem sharp but those edges leave nasty fine cuts on your fingers that you will only discover when you sanitise or stick your hands in the sonic. And then you take 55 minutes to set it up and clamped in, the moment your torch touches.. Bam it pops out.

The first few years of jewellery making are physically and emotionally painful haha

Been doing ovals & that final 4th claw is always so troublesome... things marked out accurately end up wonky... I see why you don't like ovals. Getting that V angle same on both sides really important too. So true about working accurately to make the next stage easier. (P.s. don't worry about your 'communication skills' - you do just fine).

My first thought was "how did he get the silver to look like that?" XD I always struggle with making things straight, but I am getting better and I think your videos have helped with that, so... thanks!

I’m trying to solder something that doesn’t fit together so flush and it’s such a pain.
