Looking for advice yet again!

[Ruedeleglise]

I am attempting to learn how to set stones, starting with tube settings. I have had problems “pushing” the silver over neatly to secure the stone as you can see in the photo. I had been advised not to tumble the item as this hardens the silver making it even more difficult to “mould”. Even so it was a struggle! Any advice or constructive criticism re the design of the ring etc will be most gratefully received! David.
