Setting tiny stones can be frustrating at times. There are great shaped tweezers for picking up pearls or or other larger shaped pieces, but what about a small stone? I recently saw that companies are now selling "Stone Pickers" to help with this, which is a great solution, but one you really can do for yourself without the extra charge. Any pointed tool, from a pin tool to a dental tool, with a small ball of wax or even poster putty on the end creates the sticky finger you need to place the stone. If you are having trouble with it rolling off the tip when you have it in place, a pin tool in the other hand can give it a gentle push into place.
