The Fretz 100 Series Master Stake Set (Set #102) with VH-101 Vise Mounted Stake Holder is the most comprehensive collection of Fretz 100 Series stakes available, assembled with every holder, extender, and forming stake needed to work exactly as Bill Fretz intended. This master set is purpose-built for professional jewelers, metalsmiths, and holloware makers who demand the full range of forming capability — from delicate fabricated rings and bracelets to larger sculpture pieces and small holloware.
At the core of this set is the VH-101 large vise-mounted stake holder, which secures the 100 Series stakes firmly in a bench vise for stable, controlled forming work. The T-101 long double-ended holder extends your reach significantly beyond what the standard H-1L holder allows, making it possible to form very large jewelry pieces and small holloware that would otherwise be out of range. The E-101 extended holder and E-100 extractor wedge provide the additional length required to mount M-100 Series mushroom stakes in the raised position — an essential configuration for many raising and doming operations.
The stake selection covers the full breadth of the 100 Series line: mushroom stakes in high dome, low dome, and flat profiles; concave stakes ranging from large to x-small; sloped cone stakes in large, concave, and convex profiles; convex cuff stakes in four widths; compound curve stakes; flat cuff stakes; spoon stakes in three sizes; and shallow and minimal concave stakes. Large raising and tapered raising stakes handle heavier-gauge metals and larger-scale projects. Two wood stake racks (S-1 and S-3) keep the collection organized and accessible at the bench. Two Fretz Productions instructional DVDs — one focused on convex forming and one on concave forming — are included to help practitioners get maximum results from every stake in the set.
