Mitch Roush graduated from Gem City College in Jewelry-Diamond Setting and Design in 2012, and launched into a successful career as a jeweler, bringing quality, custom pieces to life at The Jeweler's Bench in Newton, Iowa.
In 1981, Mitch's father, Jeff Roush, started The Jeweler’s Bench as a wholesale trade shop. Now, the company has been taken a different direction – focusing on custom jewelry work and repair. Jeff has worked as a jeweler for almost 40 years, and both he and Mitch possess a passion for educating others. Customers at The Jeweler's Bench are taken on a journey through the creation process – from concept sketches to their finished piece. Watch the video below to get a glimpse of that incredible journey!
They’ve been leveraging the B9 Core 550 to create their beautiful, unique pieces for over a year now, and Mitch loves the machine's reliability, ease of use, and speed.
“A reliable machine makes custom jewelry a lot of fun!”
Once they upgraded to B9Create with FAST™, Mitch reached out to give us his feedback. Here's what he had to say about the new technology:
“B9Create with FAST™ technology is a no-brainer! With fast slicing, support mirroring, and auto-supporting, this will easily save me an hour of productivity every week – that's huge for me! But the cherry on top is knowing I was able to increase print quality without having to buy a new printer.”
Check out the incredible results he’s getting with FAST™!
FAST™ Technology, powered by B9Create , will optimize your 3D print processes like never before – with fewer supports, better surface finish, dimensional accuracy, and painless post processing. This technology offers an upgrade path for existing machines in the field, making them as cutting-edge as when they first came off the line.
"Smoother surface finish and better detail! And the castings are great too!"
