    Amen to this letter, in regards to stones with wings. My wife and I
    spent nearly six hours dissambling and reassembling 2 benches in my
    shop looking for a nearly 2 ct round diamond. it slipped from my
    tweezers, hit my bench pin and it was gone. It was found down a heat
    vent next to the wall, behind a bench hours later. I had the vent
    stuffed with a shoptowel to avoid such incidents, but it still found
    a way. The vent -in a concrete slab floor-was so narrow and confined,
    we were only able to spot it , and retrieve it with a mirror
    superglued to a bent stick. I'll never hear the last of it either
    from my wife, because my hand was to big to fit at all, so she had
    to jam her hand down intoa sharp sheet metalvent , filled with
    spiders,crud,etc.. for about an hour as we fished it out . Needless
    to say, for a 2ct diamond, the trouble was worth the hassle, but I
    definitly learned from this episode. ED
