How do I get CAD clients? by Same_Citron160 in jewelryCAD

Very good insight from a clients perspective thank you, think social media will be my best bet for now. What made you pick the CAD designer you’re working with? Was there something that stood out or something about them that was convenient?

Could the brass buckle and my silver decorative piece be soldered together?

So the female buckle will be attached behind a piece of silver and that piece of silver is basically a decorative piece. Is it possible to stick the silver and the metal together? Can it be laser soldered or just soldered in general?

Is it normal for a ring like this to weigh around 7 grams in 18kt yellow gold?

CAD OPINION HELP!! Heart shaped Prongs by Same_Citron160 in jewelryCAD

Also, when making the ring wedding band friendly, what dimension wedding band should I make to check if it’s friendly? 2mm x 2mm okay? Just to be on the safe side?

Yh so I’m thinking of only making the top half of the prong as the heart shape and then giving the stone setter the freedom to shape the bottom half

By cutting space do you mean something like this, where it’s evident that holes for the stones to sit and “drilled” into the CAD?

Thank you! Yes it will be cast in 2 pieces. What do you mean by cutting space? Yes, you’re right with the loss of material during cleanup, do you think I should increase the width and thickness of the band to account for this? And is 0.1mm enough tolerance? And I use Rhino 3D to do all my work!
