    Hi, I'm new to jewelry making.  I have designed an engagement ring
    that I would like to have made.  You can see a drawing of it at:
    http://www.geocities.com/st1313eve/Pics/ring.jpg   My questions are:
    I would like to have the diamond and the 2 pyrope garnets tension
    mounted, but having no experience in designing rings, I don't know
    if my design will be strong enough to do that.  The ring is to be
    made of titanium or platinum.  Next, would I save very much money by
    making a wax model myself, or should I just take the design to a
    shop and have them do it.  I want to be sure that the ring is done
    right and will last a lifetime.  Finally, how much should I expect
    to spend for a ring like this?  Thanks for any help.  You can reply
    to me directly at: st1313eve AT hotmail.com  or just post to the list.
