Video Description:
In this video I decided to make a ring like I've never done before. I used a laser engraver to outline the shank and gallery rails. The ring was then cut out of 18K gold, and and the soldered together. The claw prongs were then soldered to the gallery rails and the 3.07 carat lab-grown diamond was then set into the ring.

    It's tricky for sure. The gallery rails are fitted to be held in with a very small amount of tension. Repositioning is sometimes needed after the coating. The prongs were done being placed by hand, but carving notches into the gallery rails helps guide where they should go

  • @spustatu
    @spustatuАй бұрын

    So, I've also seen many videos of you making rings out of... I'm pretty sure you've used a specific term for them, but I can't remember it. Bars? Little bars of metal that you roll and bend and shape into a ring. Why was this ring not made that way? It seems like bending a bar would save on potentially lost material from cutting that plate with a saw. Just wondering! Thanks for the great videos!

  • @moderngoldsmith

    @moderngoldsmith

    That is the traditional way to make a shank, out of ingots (the bars you mentioned) I got a laser recently, so I thought it would be fun to try something entirely new. I first designed the shank in CAD, then laser marked the shape on a 2mm thick sheet of gold. I'm not sure that this method "loses" anymore material because 99%+ of the material is recaptured, regardless of which method I use. Thanks for watching and the great comment.
