First pave setting tutorial ready

[Jan Hendrik]

I have finished the first tutorial on pave setting. This first tutorial is aimed to guide novice setters in the techniques needed to do professional star pave setting. Easy to follow steps guide you through the process with lots of pictures. The tutorial will serve as a platform for follow up tutorials on pave setting to cover all aspects on the subject.
Here is the link to the tutorial page:

Nice tutorial Jan! Very helpful to see it step by step with pictures of the tools you used as well. I would have also liked to seen pictures of the onglette and the flat that you used in those particular steps. Look forward to the next one! Thank you.

Thank you David!
I will make a point of it to include pictures of all the gravers that I use in the next tutorial on shared bead pave. For the shared bead, five bead and full cover pave I use a special flat graver with bevels at the top to be able to undercut the beads for the bright cut border. This graver will be featured in the new tutorial as well.
