For this week’s
#tooltalktuesday I’m showing off an awesome kit of setting tools from
@emilymarquisdesigns of
@marquisjewelryacademy Last year I was on a personal mission to learn how to create and set thick bezels (1mm+ in thickness) and Emily became my teacher for that! A great method for setting thick bezels is to secure your work in a holder (I’m using Thermoloc and a
@grstools vise) and then hammer set with punches and a chasing hammer. Emily created these punches from tenpenny nails, they have various faces to get the job done: Large, regular and mini round punches, a rectangle, and a textured round. She is doing a PRE-ORDER if you want to get your own set! The kit is $60 including shipping through her PayPal
emarquisdesigns@gmail.com or you can DM her
@marquisjewelryacademy and they will ship March 1, 2021. She has also generously shared the instructions to make your own over on the IGTV of
@marquisjewelryacademy I have to say Emily’s set is a bit nicer than the ones I made myself lol. Thank you Emily and thank you everyone for tuning in to this week’s
