This is the third go at tube setting purchased faceted stones. This is a family ring for my daughter, lab grown sapphire and 2 pink lab grown tourmalines. The silver work was fun, one of the more complex things I have made. I did not get the blue stone set perfect, I don't think I drilled deep enough. But all in all its pretty decent and she likes it. And unlike my last two rings you don't get the pleasure of my hairy fingers (that is mostly for Scott, mostly)

Coming from you Tela, that's a real compliment. There are flaws believe me, funny tho that the flaws are way more visible in a pic than in hand. That's a good thing tho
How do I do it? Patience and swearing, swearing mostly:)
