    hey Karl and all ! Sorry to step on your toes but in "Fish-Tail" is
    comprised of two regular inside beads and UNDER-CUTTING the outside
    section of metal. Once that the diamond has been placed into the
    'under-cut' area, it should be then bright-cut around the pushed-over
    outside section holding the girdle in question, got it? Filing is
    done with a triangular #4 cut file. As this will give the
    resemblance of a "fish's tail" and no other file cut and shape can
    produce this effect, trust me on this! ( hard to explain with text! )..Gerry!
