uck! been working like a dog on the engagement ring... and it died :( it's sooo ugly that i can't even post a picture of it!!! basically, when i was all done building the model i put the stone in there... and the culet (sharp point at the bottom) was right at the bottom of the head of the ring!!! UCK!!!
so i thought, seeing it was a model, i would solder a liner in it to add more metal under the head... and you know something... i thought to myself 'i should just stop, make a new one, and make a mold of this one, you know, just to have it.' BUT NO! why didn't i listen to myself. well... it's a mess now :( i found out you can't really put a liner in something that has a ton of solder joints to begin with.
soooo... i've started it over again. soon you will see a final product.
but the lesson of the day... YOU SHOULD REALLY JUST LISTEN TO THAT LITTLE VOICE!!! KNOW WHEN TO STOP!!!

Sucky! But if we listened to the voice - we'd never learn. So sorry you have to start over. This one will be fabulous! :)
