Item: An 18ct yellow gold , Australian Opal Ring

I hand crafted a ring using 18 ct yellow gold and an Australian white opal, all the metal was rolled by hand and marked out for the individual cluster stones of varying sizes.As I have recently purchased an Orion Mpulse 30 welder the undercarriage was assembled with it  and the shank was pre positioned prior to soldering eliminating the traditional use of binding wire, a hugely effective and time saving machine that is now an integral part of my manufacturing process.

AJS Products used: Orion Mpulse 30 welder, GRS benchmate, syenset ensharp sharpening system for the gravers, Vallorbe hand tools, Strong micromotor , Elma ultrasonic, AJS Pliers, fixed saw frame, 8/0 saw blades, busch burs, Sunburst radial wheels
