"Computer Aided Designs" => 22 photos

 Computer designing comes in many forms, and I'm displaying many of them in this essay. Just sit back and enjoy them, above all, learn.

 There is no opportunity for any jeweller to create these bracelet links by hand. This is where 'CAD' has made the most difficult project look easy.

 

                                                         

 There are 90 available spots for gemstones to be inserted. Pay attention to the uniformity of the claws. There isn't one claw out of alignment from the other 180 mini-claws.

 

 There are 22 spaces for stones to be set in EACH LINK. Every link has only 2 claws for each STONE.

   The diameter of these claws is sufficient to hold any stone securely.

                 This is my "GUINNESS WORLD RECORD"

  

 Although the date on this certificate is from 13 years ago, it shows the creativity that made it through all of these years.

  Every item in this photographic display essay was achieved by using C.A.D. (Computer-Aided Design).

   Everyone needs a keychain, but to have one created like this is a 'real gem', (pardon the pun)!

   I'm using my hand as a reference for the diameter of this disk.

  This is the reverse side of the disk. The numbers #8 & #7 were set as individual units and then soldered together afterwards.

  The equivalent diameter of these larger gemstones had the size of a 1.25-carat gemstone, and there were 17 of them on the edge.

 This is the epitome of mini-claw setting; there is no jeweller who can make these claws uniform in size and width. "CAD" creation was the only solution.

 One of the many features of Computer Designing is that you won't need to cast anything.

 You can create any design on paper, then show it to your client for their approval. 

 For American clients, I had my off-site computer designer make a pattern using the American flag.

The metal weight was 137.45 grams; it wasn't a lightweight disk.

 This necklace was originally created with the great assistance of CAD, and it was crafted in multiple sections. This Emerald had a gem weight of 5.13 Carats.

   I designed this gentleman's ring by using only a CAD program.

 With this pattern, I used white stones to demonstrate diamonds using the same CAD program.

 Why buy multiple gemstones of uniform colour and stone size when you can do all of the selecting via CAD and get uniform stones?

  For this storefront pattern, the owner used a CAD program to create all of the intricate wood carvings. I saw this storefront again and was still in awe at the intricate carving.

  As you can now see, CAD has entered the many realms of metal and now carvings in wood. 

  I'm hoping that this tutorial essay explored the many opportunities for you to entertain using CAD in the future.
