Great job! And, what a beautiful spirit you have, young lady! Can't wait to see where this takes you! PS: You can make a bezel pusher out of an old plastic toothbrush handle, filed/shaped at the end. It's cheap, gentle on stones at those "oops" moments...and customizable! 😉

@@brandied.7706 thank you!! i appreciate that 😊 oh perfect that’s a great idea! I’ll give it a try!

Love your work, thanks for sharing your process! Maybe to protect your fingers from having to apply pressure when you saw through metal, you could get clamps to hold the piece to the wood then rotating it when you need?

[@iveybolthouse]

thank you. of course 😊 yes! that’s what I was thinking as well!! my fingers literally locked into place so I’m gonna have to figure something out hahah
