You made a good job there, i`d just mention that you don`t need quite so much claw on the stone next time.

Given this is silver, I wondered if the claws might be a little on the thin side for security?
Maybe, but it all depends on how it gets treated.
I always assume the worst
I surprised someone the other week by not being terribly sympathetic about them losing a diamond out of their ring.
In their horse's stable.
What's going to happen when you start knocking out that micro pave?
Peter will have to start giving lessons! Yeah, I can pavé like a sofa can swim!
But, I have put my efforts into flush, tube and channel settings. The gravers (scorpiers, bull stick etc) no longer worry me.. I have green and horse tape for my fingers and some great heat shrink for the shafts on them just that darned little setting - I can raise the grains and even do that sideways grain if needed (recent repair - I was very chuffed), but for all of that lovely work, I can't get a single clean line no matter how sharp my flat graver is and the setting becomes rubbish.
If I could go down the air-graver route I would.

Might be able to give you an idea to try for that but best start a new thread? this one has already gone abit of target (probably my fault)
Then someone else can find it easier.
:-) It was mostly for a now-and-then ring, so hopefully will be ok. The stone rose up in some alarming angles too, see I was overcautious in some ways and under in others!
Thanks though. If I had a horse, I'd *always* muck out with m'diamonds on...
