Hello all,
I've been trying to set some stones with varying degrees of luck but mostly a disaster.
My question is: when gypsy setting a stone, how do you stop it from moving around in the metal when you try to burnish it? I only have a hand burnisher, no power, I do have setting burrs, round burrs, 45 & 90 deg Hart burrs.Stones I have been working with are 3-4mm cz's.
This type of setting looks fairly simple, but...............somethin' ain't quite right.
Please respond if able.
thanks,
Kent
