How to Make a Bezel Ring 8

How to Make a Bezel Ring 8 A bezel ring is an ancient style ring with bezels all the way around the finger. In this video, we cover using jett-sett to hold the ring for setting and getting the raising elements right. The last installment covers cleaning up between the bezels after the soldering is finished. In the first installment, we covered making and fusing the bezels. In the previous installments, we covered laying out and soldering the bezels to the back sheet, how to align the bezels for soldering, as well as how how to score and bend the back sheet to achieve the correct size, and soldering solutions for when the ring starts to curve around on itself, how to solder the bezel ring closed, starting to fill between the bezels with solder, and how to finish up soldering between the bezels and how to asses when the correct amount of solder has been achieved.. Bezel rings are a lot of work, making bezels, soldering, clean up, bezel setting the cabochon stones, etc., but the results are well worth it.
