I am a baby smith, today I am going to teach myself to do a prong setting. Thank you for your video, now I am confident I can do this!

I’m with you! I love sawing and I’m happy you didn’t speed through that part. Very meditative indeed! ❤

Thank you. That was so much easier to understand than anything else I have watched.

A great guide into prong setting, thank you. Patsy

What a wonderful tutorial! I have watched it several times and I learn something I missed each time. I took a college class on jewelry yet I learned more about soldering from you. Thank you so much for sharing!!!!!

Thanks Deb! In one of my latest tutorials (the wire pendant tutorial) you will see how you can solder a prong setting without any problems.

cc, thank you ;)

Very detailed thank you!

Thank you for a very detailed tutorial. It’s so nice that you’d take the time to show step by step tutorial. 🎉

Its funny, I use to watch tutorials and think, "That looks so easy, I bet I can do it!" I realized though that it's not easy to do, the person teaching it is very, very good at their craft!

This is really great! Thank you for sharing all of your small tidbits of useful info, they're super nice

So wonderful! So helpful! Thank you so much!

Good job on showing how to properly solder and form claws for a setting, I would like to see some of the other KZread "jewelers" view your tutorials so that they can learn how to properly solder and and take care of their work so it isn't marred by their subsequent actions after polishing one side of their work. some are true amateurs! I enjoyed your tutorial, it was clear, concise and you explain the reasons why you do it that way as opposed to any other way. also letting people know that they can control where the solder goes, by using the heat to do so. Very well done! If people follow your tutorials they will learn to do things right and gain in experience and most importantly, it will show in their work! I'm going to share a link to this video with another KZread jeweler who could really benefit from watching your tutorial, it's much better than me trying to explain something to them when I do not have the visuals to help explain the procedures! Who knows, he might even become a subscriber! Thanks for the video, you have earned my subscription and I look forward to more good quality tutorials!

I also love that she doesn't skip. You get a really good sense of the process and you end up learning a lot more actually. It is proven that watching someone do something helps you rehearse those movements in your mind and your own body and nervous system so when you go to do it you can actually improve just from having watched them! I can say I have vicariously soldered, set and finished a pronged pendant today haha!

It depends on if you are working with silver and gold, what the design of your piece is and how heavy the stone is. But for silver I would always go for 1 mm or rather even 1,2 mm wire to make prongs.
