"Bead Setting Diamonds: With Pave Applications" by Robert R. Wooding is a comprehensive guide for bead setting.  The book is partitioned into four sequential and interdependent sections. Section I goes beyond the scope of describing tools. It discusses their purposes, uses, and maintenance. Also, heat treating, graver shaping and sharpening, and different methods to make a beading tool are included. Section II clearly describes each phase of the bead setting procedure and the sub-components. The layout segment is empirically illustrated as the diamond setter's blueprint. Also special emphasis is given to preparing a flat graver for bright cutting. Section III applies the bead setting procedure to a variety of situations beginning with fundamental bead settings. Then it expands to configurations that resemble fancy shapes. Section IV defines and illustrates pave setting with various shapes of clusters.
