[Jewelry making - Article 00449] - [Orchid] Russian melee

    Quite a while ago Doug Zaruba gave the name and phone number of a
    dealer in NYC specializing in Russian melee. Well, I finally called
    and ordered, and want to second Doug's opinion. Benjamin (Joseph A.
    Diamonds -  800-832-1922) was great to work with, and the diamonds
    are even nicer in make than what my normal dealer sends me in the
    same color and clarity- for the same price or less. 

    Also, there was a thread a month or so ago about solder snips, and
    someone recommended  Fiskar's grey handled spring loaded scissors at
    the fabric store for $9.95. Well, I was a little skeptical, but just
    got 'em, and except for the tip, they cut really well and are much
    easier and more fun to use than the traditional long handled
    jeweler's snips. 

    So, thank you Doug and everyone else for "sharing the wealth"... 

    ...the usual disclaimers, etc.
