On to the 6 claw ring, using a cone setting bur the same size as the stone, I grind away 30-40% of the prong width. The cone setting bur makes very loud noises so I’ll probably use earplugs next time. After folding the prongs over, I filed them down so that they are even and sit just under the table of the stone. It probably needs a bit more work but I will work on it in the extra stone setting course that I’ll be taking.
This week’s wrap up:
• Used GRS ball vise
• Used cone setting bur
• Used 6mm black spinel
