Process pics of a ring Im working on

[Lucy]

Hey guys,

Just working on this ring for me Im almost done now, just have to set some more stones tomorrow. In the meantime, Im having an issue with getting the heavy silver prongs to sit flush against the center stone, springback is driving me nuts (I hate silver) I have abused the damned thing with everything going including pounding it with the gravermach hammer handpiece but still there is .3mm ish between the tips and the stone. Any suggestions? I am thinking of just filing the prongs back a smidge to where it does meet, but Id rather not if i can figure out some other way.

Cheers everyone
