Pavilion Tool #11 is used to carve seats for facetted stones.
First carve a 90¡ shelf with 90¡ tool #10, then adjust the 90¡ seat to a beveled seat with the Pavilion tool. Let the long safety edge ride on bezel wall, while scraping the 90¡ seat with the sharp pavilion angle of tool.

To open up bezel walls without adjusting beveled seat: allow the safety pavilion edge to ride on bevel, while using outward pressure to open up bezel walls with long, sharp edge of tool.
