Bezel setting was one of the earliest stone setting techniques developed by mankind. Over time, the process has been made easier thanks to developments in metallurgy and tool making. But on occasion you might run into a situation where you might have trouble moving metal to surround a stone. In this video, Professor John Ahr of the Online Jewelry Academy demonstrates how to use a hammer and a modified masonry nail to push a thick, cast sterling silver bezel onto a cabochon stone.
