So this is some of what I did today I forgot my finished projects there so will have to head back out next weekend to get them minerken the dopstick worked fantastic!! I only did 2 with it to try and 1 without. Hands are tore up from the one without, so I will dop from now on. @hookedonrocks I get delusions in my head of how many I can get done. The moonstone I picked up while I was there and just played around with it.

Thanks! I may need to get me one of those soon. I dop with wax, but that's getting old.
You can soak it in acetone. That will get it off. Put it in a glass jar with enough acetone in it to cover the glue and make sure it's tall enough so you can put the lid on the jar. It evaporates quick and you don't want to be breathing it in.

Yeah, super glue and metal stick really well.
If you want to get the stone off quickly, get a butane torch and heat the metal below the glue. That will release the stone fast. Make sure you have a towel or something for the stone to drop off on. You'll probably have to soak both the stone and the dop to get the rest of the glue off, unless you can scrape it off with your fingernail. That works sometimes. Don't forget to hold the dop with something so you don't burn your fingers!
