It's not that hard of a process.i just go in reverse.i make the silver first,then use it as a template,cut the cab and set it.most are set with an open back to keep down on weight.the bezel is 6ga.half round sterling.ill post some pics of bezels im working on Dave

Very cool. It's interesting to see how you make them, keep the pictures coming. What's the next step after cutting out the shape?

The tigers eye pendant is crazy!!! Not very easy to form that heavy wire to make a Texas bezel either! Nice pieces and some great work! connrock
