T U R N I N G - T U E S D A Y

Since the turn of the year I have been working on a bespoke commission mainly on the lathe.

There are a lot of parts that have needed to be cut to length and parted off, but it’s always satisfying when things start coming together.

Here’s a clip of me getting the base’s central recess just right for its silver plaque!

The finished piece to follow soon... #watchthisspace

C A D - T O - P R I N T Here’s a tricky resize

C A D - T O - P R I N T

Here’s a tricky resize job where the ring has to be significantly down sized. The ring is an engraved gemstone signet, so can’t be cut and shut, otherwise the engraved stone will break!

Therefore a custom sleeve has been modelled and will be cast and lasered into to place.

Here are a couple of videos of a recent bespoke bangle, commissioned as a special lockdown birthday gift.

The piece is made from solid 18ct white gold and features a hand made box catch mechanism.

The piece is finished with castle set diamonds and a sentimental hand engraved message.

I’ve got to say that I really enjoyed working on this piece, especially on the micro engineering elements required for the catch.
