PLEASE make sure to get the mini Bezel mandrel box from Otto Frei if you can it will help you when making the bezels.

PEAR settings require more skill than  than oval settings! If you find they are too difficult for you,  Then it's ok to just do the ovals settings. Most people have to make few  pears before they feel good about their work I suggest you try to make them,and if you don't master it this time just make 4 ovals! It's OK :)
