What is the name of the tool that you use to round out the beads? The first half of this video is great, but I'm most interested about the bead settings and wish that info wasn't skipped over!

Thank you so much for sharing, I’m using brass sheets, and I have to say it’s so difficult to even put a dent in it with my engravers

Absolutely brilliantly explained - no others have spoken about the depth of cut to raise the grain - i have a gold wedding ring i need to do with 5 1.5mm diamonds (never done it before - just waiting for my gravers to be delivered 😮

Thanks for the vid! I've been working on my flush settings, and I think it's time to sharpen up the gravers and try a bead setting!

“It’s gonna look a little bit.. shit.” That bit got me 😂😂

First time this brand newby has seen bead setting. Hypnotic watching you work Lucy, and I was thinking that the beads would look ugly around the stone, but what a beautiful finish there. So impressed. Cant wait to try it. Materials on their way. I've seen a few videos of yours now. Sub'd.

hi Lucy, great video again! could you tell me what kind of graver (which shape) you use? thank you!

[lindagerhard]

What a stunning setting! I only started flush setting a week ago and have no gravers yet, nor any knowledge of how to use them. Any videos to recommend for beginners for using gravers, types and purposes of the various tips?

[susanscott-ker]

Great tutorial/video. What is the tool (name, size or #) you’re using to push the beads over the stone?

[Raeintheuk]

Love this video. Thank you. What engraver is that?

[kenokoci]

Hi, what is the tool that you hold the stone by hand?

[mojansafarzadeh]
