    Awww thank you guys...my partner is now laughing at the big crazy grin on my face Im glad that you think it is ok.

    I have just noticed that I did scratch the metal a little bit too with the pusher tool so will have to watch out for that next time

    I'd say that was very neat for a first go. You only need to file and buff out the scratches and then burnish the edges for it to be perfect, that is if the stone is holding. pretty stone by the way, what is it?

    Thank u It was labelled as blue/white agate, I bought it from a little stand at IJL...along with another similar but brighter blue one I will try using tomorrow.

    I need to get some more sheet for the back of the second one...do you know if you can just pop by at Cooksons to buy a particular sized cut piece of silver over the counter or would I need to order it first??

    For a first attempt, actually not even for a first, that looks pretty darn good to me!
