Bezel Setting Tool Kit -Ergonomic Bezel Setting Tool Set for Rings & Pendants
This set of tools was designed to make setting a cabochon on the pendant and rings easier and less painful, primarily for jewelry makers suffering from arthritis and other hand and wrist issues (each tool is also available separately).
Either the 2 or 2.5-inch Rotating mounts are useable for most projects. The 2-inch works best with pendants and rings less than 1 square inch of the backplate, and the 2 1/2-inch works best with bezels larger than 3 square inches of backplates. See FAQ's for more info.
After testing in the field, we found that non-suffering users love the ability to hold the setting firmly while rotating it for easier positioning of the hand and bezel tool.
They really love that if you slip, they don’t mar the bezel or the stone!
The components are:
a rotating bezel mount.
a Thermo-Loc® heat release adhesive, (Thermo-Loc®, is a registered trademark of Glendo Corporation)
an Ergonomic Bezel Pusher.
an Ergonomic Bezel Burnisher.
Your pendant is secured when it is pressed into the Thermo-Loc® mounting plastic that has been heated with a heat gun or high-temperature hair dryer.
The mount is rotated with the non-dominant hand to bring the bezel into different positions.
The bezel is easy to work with, either ergonomic tool that fits in the palm of the hand.
After the stone is secured, the ergonomic bezel burnisher is used to harden and polish the edge of the bezel.
Once the bezel is closed, the assembly is lightly heated to remove it from the rotating mount.
The 3d printed high-impact plastic prevents the stone and bezel from being damaged
in the event of a stone destroying slip of the hand.

Soldering Board - Great for easy component placement
Our Lazy Sue Grid SolderN'Board is a product of necessity. We discovered, in class the hard way, that maintaining an even heat while moving a torch around and trying to avoid melting the bezel can be a very challenging situation, especially for a beginner. After repeated melted projects we realized that the project being moved made more sense in many situations. Ta Da! Enter the rotating Grid SolderN'Board. Centering the workpiece on the rotatable Lazy Sue SolderN'Board and stabilizing your arm against your worktable helps you maintain a consistent height above the workpiece with a more controllable angle. I have also found that the ability to place components and solder accurately is enhanced tremendously by moving the entire workpiece without having to get your arms and hands in weird positions. The grid function enables precise right angle and square corners'
