Here are the tools you'll need:
And the components and stones:
Step by Step:
1. Approximately 3/4 up the heads, grind a slight angle
2. Next, you'll need a 6 3/4 size mandrel. Using sticky wax, place the heads on the mandrel to verify that the angles match.
3. Working with two heads at a time, use wire to bind the heads together and solder each of the two end sets together. Then, bind the middle head in place and solder.
4. Size the shank at the shoulders. Using the wire, bind the head section to shank. Solder it all together.
5. Prep and polish.
6. Set the stones.
