Hi! Wonderful video! What’s the tool at 18:02 called? I always wanted to figure it out and couldn’t ....

[@akashvermzz]

Thanks for the video! which tool are you using at 16:07 to push the stone in?

[@heinikendude]

Hi Akash, That's a hollow nail tip, you soaken it a bit in water to adhere the diamonds to your hollow tip.

What kind of knife or graver?

[@andijvie3119]

Hi, wat is uw werk afstand met de microscoop als ik vragen mag? Ik heb een keuze tussen 150 of 200mm, sommigen beweren dat 150mm afstand te weinig is om mee te gaan werken...

[@heinikendude]

Hi Andijvie, mail me even. [e-mail]

[@andijvie3119]

vandoorenniels Thx, ik heb al een keuze gemaakt voor een afstand van 150mm, nu begrijp ik waarom men schuin boort of freest, je belemmert je zicht. Het is wel even wennen hoor, hopelijk kan ik wat van je leren en alsnog 101 vragen stellen als je het niet erg vindt!

[@Bowtie41]

How do you determine each of the ball mill and drill sizes? I realize 1 ball mill will be for the diamond diameter,but what about the others?Thank You.

[@heinikendude]

Start with a small cilinder bur (0,7mm or so) and than with a small round bur and go up 0.2mm each next time =)

[@john-cl5ze]

If you set the 2.0mm pavé, what's the sequence? (Eg first drilling at 0.8mm, then drilling at 1.0mm ... then at 1.3mm ...) Would you explain how to drill holes in any size order?

[@ruud4508]

hyun jun Jang drill with 1.0 mm carbide drill, then use ball shaped carbide burr 1.3 mm then 0.3 mm up till you reach desired size

[@heinikendude]

In the video you see 1,3mm pavé diamonds. You just start around 0.7mm and work your way up skipping 0.2mm. So 0.7, 0.9, 1.1, 1.3. Good luck! =)

[@allenl9214]

@@heinikendude what is the reason of working your way up in increments? Why not drill 2.0mm but straight away?

[@heinikendude]

access Hi, because drilling 2mm straight away would not give me room to make tiny connections to make the diamonds match perfectly.

[@JimBob1937]

@@heinikendude, that makes sense. I assume if you were 100% perfect and equal with your spacing measurements with 100% perfect and equally sized stones, you may be able to go straight to the 2.0mm hole. However, from watching your technique, you work incrementally (what every jeweler seems to do), it likely gives you room to make adjustments left/right as you step up in size, giving a more of an ability to adjust and get that equal spacing so they match when laying next to each other. Would you say this reasoning is correct?

[@naftalanski]

Super.

[@heinikendude]

Thanks!

[@cassianobeserra2036]

fantastic...

[@heinikendude]

Great to hear!

[@paredesrobert572]

Does anyone know the brand of the tools he was using

[@heinikendude]

Which specific tool? Some I made myself some are bought at different suppliers. =)

[@john-cl5ze]

vandoorenniels which brand is your hand piece? (not engraving machine)and microscope? what is the name of 15:08 hand piece drill bit tool ?

[@ruud4508]

hyun jun Jang cylinder burr, can be made out of carbide rod

[@heinikendude]

Hi Hyun Jun Jang, Hand piece is Lindsey Microscope is Meij (Japanese) at 15:08 you see a tapered bur measuring up to 0.6mm at the wide end.
