About
Wrap bezels, solder, fabricate a ring, and set at least one round or oval cabochon stone. This is a great class if you want to learn how to add colorful stones to your work and improve your fabricating skills. You'll spend most of the time learning about designing and making a settings that will fit your stones. Once you've made the settings, you'll learn how to secure the stone.
This is the first in a stone-setting series. It's great skill-building class and a prerequisite for some of the stone-setting classes that follow, because it introduces you to basic stone-setting concepts, tools, and soldering techniques that will be used and built upon throughout the series.
