cbilton.creato... With beginner jewellers in mind who are practicing making jewellery only in silver I thought it would be helpful to share this way of constructing a single stone ring.
Its quick and easy. Just 2 pieces of metal and 4 solders completes the whole thing!
Not only that, it is really strong. I can imagine even sizing it up on a ring stretcher with the stone set will be possible!
There's even more good news.... This is a full instructional guide that (unusually for the channel) can be viewed in entirety here in this video. However, there is a part 2.
In part 2 I will explain how once you have completed this ring you will have the ability to create a real show stopper of a ring. I explain what needs to be done and how to do it.
To find out how, you need to become a Diamond Mounter patron.

Check out the new Diamond Mounter side channel!
Its called 'Diamond Mounter Clips'
Its compiled of short clips taken from previous videos to
highlight useful techniques and information I was teaching.

was useful in the video!

Compared to the cost of joining other jewellers over priced online courses that cant offer the quality or variation of jewellery making that I can, the patron fee must surely be considered a bargain!

I have been lucky enough to have been taught by actual Bond Street shop jewellers and my ambition is to share what I have learned through out my career to as many people as possible.
My vehicle to do this is the Diamond Mounter TH-cam channel and its time to take it up a level.
I hope you will consider becoming a patron!

This was a really helpful video ❤️ I'm learning slowly to make rings and the way you communicate makes everything very easy to understand 😙 You're a wonderful artist, I can't wait to see more of your content!!
That's a nice little project. I think I'm going to do it with my daughter in the winter vacation. Thanks for sharing.
I've truly enjoyed stumbling upon your instructional videos. I'm slowly gaining confidence in my abilities and look forward to implementing your tips and tricks as I expand my skills thanks. Many thanks and wishing you all the best!!!
Thanks so much Im very happy to hear people are finding the videos useful!
thank you for your dedication and patience to teach and you are
a true inspiration from hugs from portugal
Hugs accepted! Youre welcome glad you find the videos useful
This video was so well done. Very simple directions and excellent communication of technique. Thanks for all you do! I'll check out Part 2
Thank you so much for your video! Love it! Could you please send me the part two link? I couldnt find it. Thank you!!
I really love watching you make beautiful pieces of jewelry which I love to do but but I I never bought a soldering piece piece of equipment. Could you show making a ring ring 💍 without a soldering piece piece of equipment..I UNDERSTAND EVERYONE HAS one but I always forget to get one. ❤
That is really really cool project even for a beginner like me. Just discovered your channel. My eyes are peeled to the screen. Amazing stuff. Keep it up.
Very nice work! I am so happy to have found you. Your work is so professional. I sell Jade to my customers in USA. I totally understand your dilemma about the international postal service. I live in Thailand. Last year, A customer had to wait almost a year for her package to get to Hawaii. We track everything for our customers but there is only so much we can do. I have even sat all night long on the phone with USPS trying to locate a missing package, many times. The Covid pandemic has made it very difficult for sending stuff. I just hope customers understand what we go through for them. Thank you for sharing your skills.
I think it may improve quite soon
Really enjoyed watching this video. I am working on becoming more precise and learned so many good tips from you! Can tell you truly take pride in your work and enjoy it!!
For seating the shank in the setting I usually use a "chernier file". A sort of flat file that only has teeth on the edges. Makes things a lot easier
Where do you find them? I've been looking for several years now!
@@leeperrybender5811 Ive never seen a file like that before. Maybe if you need one just get a grinder and modify a normal flat needle file
Thank you so much for these videos
love your banter bro
Oh I wanted to tell you the "mini ring stick" they call them Bezel Mandrels in the US. I purchased a round and an oval one because you know the Master has them I needed them too 😁
Gracias por estos videos y compartir conocimiento. Lo haces muy bien y ayuda a muchos que no tenemos acceso a esa calidad de informacion realmente util. Saludos desde Argentina!
Gracias por ver. ¡Estoy muy feliz de que la gente encuentre útiles los videos!
Right then chris , let’s see you do some gold 😃
Ooooo the jeopardy 🙌
Great video!
Great video. I have no mill, is this technique still possible? Thanks
Thank you Chris! Great tutorial! How many secret sauce videos do you have for Patreons as of now?
Please don't laught, I know that you are an experienced jeweler, I would like to ask as a very beginner person, what I can do with some scrap of sterling silver, e.g. after making a ring or after cutting something out of a silver sheet. I work from home and I have no special devices . Thank you for your chanel you are very helpful
I use scrap silver in a bunch of pretty resourceful ways.. You can ball it up to make decorative elements which you can use in shot plates or just as a ball, you can also make a larger ball then flatten it out with a hammer and use stamps to either put a design on the piece or I have found even initials are useful and then I will add a birthstone to make it a personalized piece of jewelry. I hope a couple of these help😁
Yes like JaNet said if you can melt it in to small balls and flatten them with a hammer to get small round shapes
@@DiamondMounter 😁
@@JayDub_143 oh wow thank you very much now I am safe :):)
@@magorzata8213 anytime!!! My pleasure!!
What guage silver strip did you use for the bigger stone’s collet?
Hi Chris. Great video as ever - I can’t find part 2 though. I tried here and the patrons posts. Am I missing it?!
No its not up yet. Very sorry for the delay! Im about to start working on it again today. I will finish it as soon as I can
Ah that would explain it! No apology needed! Looking forward to its! X
Where do you get your pliers from?
any jewellery tool supply shop!
Can you tell me what torch you are using because I can't seem to get enough heat for the solder to flow if I hold the piece in third hand. I am using a dremel torch but don't have the space for a professional set up. Thanks
oxy and propane are best for jewellers. Very hot flame that doesn't burn too brightly
Hello friend, I want to know if I join the payment of 5 pounds, will I have access to the second part of the video? Greetings from Colombia
Hello and yes classic members get access to all the videos!
How do feel about using Argentium and precipitation hardening? Is it worth the extra time to hardening it?
Never heard of Argentium before so i just googled it. Sounds like good stuff Im gonna try to get some
@@DiamondMounter search Ronda Coryell she's done tons of videos on it.
Argentium is great to work with.
Can you show us the final result of this ring for us non-patreons?
Sure! Im still finishing the ring and when its done I will make a preview of the work I did to it
@@DiamondMounter Much appreciated 😉
@@DiamondMounter I joined your Patreon today and cannot find the Part 2 of this project. Was it ever posted?
I need to know reality
How do I patronize. Brilliant work,
There is a link in the description. Thank you!
Who knows who’s jewellers is this design ?
You speak too much
