Why should you use C.A.D. for your intricate designing? => 13 photos.

  The most exquisite, shaped patterns are usually made by a computer program. There is no possible way that these designs can be executed by 'hand crafting'.

 The individual claw settings could not be designed with such precision in claw height and thickness. The uniform 'cut-out' patterns of these patterns would be difficult to replicate by hand. 

 In my previous essays, I suggested that a 'pre-polishing' technique be used in cleaning your jewellery before stone setting.

 Would you believe that the Azure and Blue Sapphire stone setting was created while this ring was still in the CAD program?

 C.A.D. computer program visualises many possibilities without going into the actual metal casting.

 This wax disk was created while the designer was still thinking about the metal form.

 The designer always plans ahead according to the client's needs.

 There is no possibility that all of the 64 large stone claws can be created equally by hand.

 This casino disk was crafted while it was still in the CAD program. The stone setting was still active in the 'computer program'.

 Modifications can be made easily while the pattern is still in the CAD program.

 For my American friends, I designed the 'stars & stripes'. I requested that the setting be a 'shared claw' arrangement on all of the stone settings.

 Computer carving doesn't always come in metal. Here is a prime example of 'computer wood carving' being used on an upscale clothing store in Toronto, Canada.

 I touched the surface, and it was as smooth as silk.

 With a few computer clicks, the designer can replicate white stones to simulate gemstones.

 In this remarkable CAD program, the designer visualises how diamonds can look once they are set.

 In these two photos, you can now observe the assembly of the bracelet links without any of the usual metal casting.

 While still in the computer program, the designer can alter and make changes within a few seconds. Thus saving hundreds of dollars in metal casting.

 The best part is that the client can change his (or her) mind to meet their own client's wishes.
