 These multi-coloured lines give the setter which section of the claw to work on first.

 A 4-claw 'V' shaped claw looks repetitive, but we are working on 4 claws, with 8 sections. These 'sections' are meant to hold a Square stone. It looks difficult, but it really isn't.

 Keeping a stone from moving in a bezel is not an easy task. Things can go wrong after the very first stone tightening process.

 YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE NUMBERED STEPS, or problems will occur, trust me!

 A metal pusher MUST NEVER HAVE A SERRATED FACE. Even if it's to gently grip the metal. The 'rough-textured face' will get deeply embedded into the ring or claws.

 The mediocre or inferior faceting of a cubic zirconia will not shine well, as light will not bounce back to the eyes of the client.

 I use a separating disk to dig deep into the tightened claws. This process is something that I thought of. What basically happens is that I'm loosening the grip on the claws, and I'm 'peeling' the claws off of each tightened stone.
