StonesettingTip: I always keep a small container of fine sawdust on my bench. I put a pinch in the bezel cup before placing the stone. This adds a cushion, which lessens the chance of breakage. It's also a great way to raise thinner stones up to a level that makes them appear more substantial and more attractive in your setting. ------------------- 😊👍 #smithingtips #metalsmithsocietytips #suzefeledyjones #ladysmiths #teachmetalsmithing #igjeweler #riojeweler https://www.instagram.com/p/B87TyVpBP9k/?igshid=1kieirjru8u6s
