Literally every video from Bobby I watched I asked myself this question and finally there is a video from Bobby which answeres my question. And luckily this video is just as great to watch as every ohter one from Bobby, hopefully there are more of this "explanatory videos" coming up.
Necroing a old chat but first time seeing this guy and let me say.......not only is he a stud muffin, his fluid movements, the chill vibe music and his voice are simply relaxing. I could watch hours straight of this dude make jewelry.
The most satisfying part of creating a piece to me is the buffing... I love setting the stones and designing a piece and the time put into it is so peaceful but buffing it and polishing
fab video - it's amazing that it's such a simple way the stones are kept in but it must take a lot of finesse and skill to do it just right. Excellent. Love seeing the skills.
I just started as an apprentice and my shop manager recommended your videos. One of my jobs is to help make sure the diamonds are secure and your videos help me understand how to do it better. Thank you!
Thank you mr. Bobby White...I’ve long been a fan and supporter of your program. I have learned so much from you. I have even purchased a bracelet from you which I so-love. I want to wish you and your family the best for the holidays. Stay safe and well.
does anyone else feel like bobby's demeanor and tone of voice in this video are softer and there is even maaaybe a hint of a smile at the end? :D i like it
every time I watch your videos involving diamond or jewel setting I always wanted to know more about what's involved so this was a must watch for me ! keep up the awesome work 👍🏻
I've started to actually get interested in jewelry because of this channel, though I usually stay in the forging area of metalwork. Is it hard to become a jewelry like Bobby? Do I also need to be proficient in business? Lots of questions.
I will not say that it’s easy to become a good jeweler because you must make efforts and work a lot. You can be a jeweler, but a GOOD jeweler is made of a lot of motivation and work. Bobby white is a great jeweler :) and you can be a jeweler without being good in business if you work in a company. For exemple that’s what I wanna do. Cartier, boucheron, VanCleef, Chaumet... those are incredible company to work for! But if you wanna create your own business, yes you will need to learn it :)
I see... I feel like I have enough motivation to become at least decent at jewelry, I just wonder if I should stick to iron or steel, since jeweling seems like an expensive and delicate process with a lot of risk in damaging your materials. Whereas if I crack some metal while smithing something I only lose a few dollars.
I'm no expert but if you want an easy and affordable way to get started making rings, go to hobby lobby or online or similar and buy a set of different colored wire spools (about $12), and you can start making rings with small rocks you find outside or small knick-knacks around your house. There are a ton of videos with ever increasing difficulty and it starts out as simple as you need
Thanks for breaking it down the best way. Others try and explain but you were very detailed about how it's all done. Even down to the tools. Thanks man.
Saliva there’s another video where he makes a Cuban chain bracelet and he kinda licks the end of the tool so the diamond sticks to it and then he sets it where he wants it
You make it look so easy ... and it's not. It takes a long time to even make straight lines with the same depth with any graver. And to get all the stones in the same height ... It takes a lot of practice and experience. A pleasure to watch how it shall be done. 👍
If you worked in fine silver, high carat gold, or other fusible metals you don’t need to solder. Otherwise the links would come apart when you twisted them.
@Bobby White how did you pick up those stones? What tool were you using. What is it called? Because when I set stones I use tweezers or bees wax on a picker.
What method did you use to calculate that 1.50 mm stones would space perfectly in all letters? What is the rule of thumb you use for spacing between diamonds? Is there a formula?
Been subscribed for years and the amount of work that goes into his videos is crazy. I’m surprised he doesn’t have millions of subs. Content on point🤘🔥
Are you using wax on the end of your tool for picking up the diamonds? Also could you leave link for the tools used to initially set the diamond and the baller once you do the split?
Hey Bobby, I just want to say thank you for all your video's. I am now a freelance website developer but back in the day (the early 90's) I was a trainee Jeweller in the world famous Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham. I ended up with a NVQ level 3 in Jewellery Design and Manufacture. Alas though after getting made redundant a few years later I ended up becoming a publican. Now though you have inspired me by your videos to take back up the reigns and start to build myself a workshop at home to get back into it. Thanks a load fella and keep up the great work. Phillip
@@PDews His videos inspired me to start traditional silver and goldsmithing. I used to just focus on lost wax casting, but got bored. Now everything I make is hand fabricated, and I do my own videos here too. Watching him made me a better jeweller, I'd love to see what you do!
Hi there, I've got 3 small diamonds for a ring and I'm curious if they can be set into my single gold tooth cap? If so would this be easy to get done by someone? I don't have the tools
Hi, Bobby. I am Donny Factory who is working on jewelry in Korea. I was impressed by your video so I took a video of myself. Thank you. I will show you how much I can improve.
OK...makes sense for this type of piece but what about for example when they "buss down" a rolex and much smaller diamonds are used to encrust the band and the bezel etc. can't be same process?
First of all, I'd like to thank you for this amazing video. I have been learning this trade since 2018 in Italy but I had never even heard of the tool "splitter". They don't use it here...what they do is they cut the metal to create the claws and then split them in half before they set the diamonds. Now as a professional which one would you recommend?
Hi mate would you have any advice on setting diamonds into teeth grillz? On grillz the diamonds are placed a bit more randomly so I’m not sure on how it’s done, would you have any tips please?
Okay now I need to know what are the liquid, cleaners? I suppose, usually red/magenta in color that are used after gold has been given form or stones have been added, that jewelers dip them in to clean them. They give a nice shine and reach color to the metal.You used that stuff on the phoenix ring you made sometime ago.
0:23 is that a piece of wood or something you jewelers use as your workspace...? I see some grain on there on the side, always wondered what that was. Great video!
Some of the more intricate designs can take well over 100 hours to make. The gas mask pendant he made probably took over 150 to 200 hours. He said each link took about 2-3 hours, and there must be over 30 of them, then there's the pendant itself!
This is something I didn't ask for, but desperately need.
i didnt ask for it but i always wondered

A cut above what i usually see from this channel.
@@GodardScientific What???? Have you been watching the right channel darling?
But hard to follow actually
So crazy that that little thin piece of gold is being trusted to hold in all those diamonds
Until they start popping out. ...😨
yeah like what if it bends or move from wear over time i would use both glue and the prong method
I care so much about my jewelry even my cheap $2 ones and just to see how much work you put in this is amazing

Talented jeweller, you make it look effortlessly simple.
I just started as an apprentice and my shop manager recommended your videos. One of my jobs is to help make sure the diamonds are secure and your videos help me understand how to do it better. Thank you!
Where do you get a splitter for splitting the metal to make the prongs or does he make it from a pusher
Thank you. The splitter was a new one for me. Again thank you

could you make a video about how to resize rings. would really love to know

Explore Bobby’s channel. He has a few videos where he answers those kinds of questions.
Thank you Bobby for the in depth video. It is nice to hear the different tools and techniques you are using. Brilliant as always.
I really dig this chiller type of video. As always a banger
WOW. What incredibly skilled, precise work. "Great job" seems like an understatement. It's superb.
Thanks for breaking it down the best way. Others try and explain but you were very detailed about how it's all done. Even down to the tools. Thanks man.
I love this Musik, Cuts, Chill Vibe of this Video. So nice! Love it!
Do you collect the shavings, or does it just disappear into the abyss?
3:23 What was that clear liquid that came out after the diamond was inserted?
(You said, you dont use glue?)
I'm guessing it's something so the diamonds stick to his tool while he sets them.
Saliva there’s another video where he makes a Cuban chain bracelet and he kinda licks the end of the tool so the diamond sticks to it and then he sets it where he wants it

Is it possible to make a Cuban link chain without soldering. You should make a video of you trying it.
If you worked in fine silver, high carat gold, or other fusible metals you don’t need to solder. Otherwise the links would come apart when you twisted them.
You are so underrated
Ur videos are so high quality and so interesting.
U deserve more clout.
One of the most entertaining Answer i've ever seen on TH-cam🙂 Thank you so much Bobby White🙋♂️
@Bobby White how did you pick up those stones? What tool were you using. What is it called? Because when I set stones I use tweezers or bees wax on a picker.
That studio set up with the star wars lights in the walls is insane!
Wow seriously have no words to describe how talented you are it's amazing!!!
Hey emenim why you stop making music to create juwelry?
What method did you use to calculate that 1.50 mm stones would space perfectly in all letters? What is the rule of thumb you use for spacing between diamonds? Is there a formula?
yeah want to know also?

Loved the video, also loved the adorable doggo yawning and napping in the background. Good doggo!!
Jewelry creation is amazing. I truly respect & admire the process especially as a jewelry lover.
Bobby u the only youtuber that I leave likes on that's how u Kno I got mad respect for u keep it up
I just can watch his videos all day!
I have to have a custom piece from him. Amazing work!
Finally, now I can die in peace...😂
Always on time‼️👌

I could watch this all day long....outstanding video

What's the liquid coming off the diamond and the tool @3:21?
Glue
Always wondered this, perfect video 🔥
Watching this was so calming and rewarding ✨
Wanted to be a jeweler once upon a time...but, I never could find out how to learn that trade. Good job, sir.
I was literally just thinking about this yesterday
THANK YOU , THANK YOU , THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for this video 😫. It was so simple , detailed and to the point 🙌🏾. I really needed it .
what is the stuff you wipe off the diamond at 3:21
AROUND 3:22 you said no glue uses, but it appears some wet glue kinda looking thing is being used, what is that? :D im really curious?
Believe it or not, its saliva. Licking the tip of the tool makes the stones stick to the tip of the tool so you can place them into the metal.
@@recklessvandalism what is that tool?
Hey Bobby, I just want to say thank you for all your video's. I am now a freelance website developer but back in the day (the early 90's) I was a trainee Jeweller in the world famous Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham. I ended up with a NVQ level 3 in Jewellery Design and Manufacture. Alas though after getting made redundant a few years later I ended up becoming a publican.
Now though you have inspired me by your videos to take back up the reigns and start to build myself a workshop at home to get back into it.
Thanks a load fella and keep up the great work.

Good Luck with it all again Phillip!
@@BobbyWhite Nice one, cheers fella. Will let you know how I get on. I assume you have been to the Jewellery Quarter before?

I was just thinking about this and like a minute later it popped up on my recommendations
Thanks soo much, I asked this question not too long ago. Appreciate it.
workmanship is very perfect .. greetings from my jewelry maker from Indonesia. 🇮🇩🙏
That song though. XD I guess if you're gonna be a famous TH-cam Jeweler you've gotta also get into some dank music.
Nice! Patiently waiting for my graver to be delivered since I need a workshop at home now. As always, great work.

Hi there, I've got 3 small diamonds for a ring and I'm curious if they can be set into my single gold tooth cap? If so would this be easy to get done by someone? I don't have the tools
This was incredible to watch. Thank you.
Never see you do this process in other videos basically just see you bore holes out push diamonds in then done glad to see how you do it
3:23 what was that you wiped off, water? Not glue right?
Finally something I've asked repeatedly..cheers bobby
Hello! Can this be done with copper or brass? Thanks a lot for your videos. They are inspiring!
how often do you have to restart a piece? Or How do you fix a mistake, no that you would make many. Your insane!
you re cast the gold and try again. nothin gets ruined if you mess up except around 6% of your starting material will become slag. I make Grillz.
Hi, Bobby. I am Donny Factory who is working on jewelry in Korea. I was impressed by your video so I took a video of myself. Thank you. I will show you how much I can improve.
Is it a drop of water just so the stone holds for a few seconds if it isn't glue at 3:22?
Im set in a car and in 1:05 i thought someone was knocking on the car, i was looking behind my self too 😂
OK...makes sense for this type of piece but what about for example when they "buss down" a rolex and much smaller diamonds are used to encrust the band and the bezel etc. can't be same process?
Please name the spark that lights the gas. Or the purchase link. Thanks in advance
Its called an Appa Torch Lighter

What is it or what is it called

Much appreciated!
Congrats for this video, perfect quality video! Nice soundtrack!
Thank you! You continue to inspire me to become a jeweler like yourself or even buy some :) great video!
How much gold is lost during the making process and how do you collect it?
Your works are always impeccable
Thanks for the knowledge 🙏🏽 hope business is doing great ! I’m making my first custom piece once two more tools get here. Thanks for your help
how does one get an apprenticeship, and what would this profession be called??
Okay, I mean I already knew all that stuff, but I watched it anyway 'cause it is SO GOOD.
where i can buy the hand tool that do you use for spliting and grab diamonds?
Okay now I need to know what are the liquid, cleaners?

They give a nice shine and reach color to the metal.You used that stuff on the phoenix ring you made sometime ago.
Thank you for this!! I’ve been wondering forever how those diamonds stay in place and don’t fall out.
you amazingly talented thank you for sharing!
WOW they were very nice
I have always wanted to try this, Thank you very much.
0:23 is that a piece of wood or something you jewelers use as your workspace...? I see some grain on there on the side, always wondered what that was.
Great video!
Love your work shop and workmanship 🥰
So satisfyingly
Wow so no adhesive or prongs etc to hold the stones in? How do they stay in so securely?
How long does it take you to make a piece of jewelry? BTW I love your vids. The editing is amazing and the jewelry is so cool and unique.
