This is a big piece for me. I do not normally cab or set anything this large so this is new to me. It did give enough room to cut out the shape of Drummond Island into the back. That is where I collected the stone. Thanks for looking Chuck

I always enjoy your pudding stones! I think the piece came out great. Someone is gonna snap it up and happily wear it.

Thanks rockjunquie. I will have to come up with a price first. It will probably be one of my higher end pieces though. Still no bells and whistles but it is a large cab. I learned that these large pieces take longer to work the flaws out of too. Chuck

Another nice one, Chuck. I see you’re mixing it up on the back. Drummond Island is a good choice.

Great pendant. I’m still trying to get ONE WITH MY JEWELERS SAW! The back of your pendant is so professional looking.

Great pendant. I’m still trying to get ONE WITH MY JEWELERS SAW! The back of your pendant is so professional looking. Thanks - Are you breaking a lot of blades or just having trouble following lines? The jewelers saw is identical to a woodworking coping saw so it was easy for me to transition to it. When cutting wood with a coping saw I was always told to not turn the saw and to just turn the piece I was cutting. I could never completely do that so I do a combination of the two. I move the pieces I am cutting and also move the saw a bit as I am cutting. Chuck

Great precision. Even under magnification. Thanks James. The camera is my worst critic for sure. Items that look good in a photo look great in person. Chuck

Getting hung up and my lines aren’t straight hahaha but that’s just lack of practice. Cutting out my 6” copper bracelet took a while an it’s a little whoppy jawed but I’ll take it to the mini grinder and size it up a bit.
