    Hello, I am currently carving a ring for someone.  it will have an
    opal set into it after it is cast.  My client wants the stone set
    flush with the surface on top, so I thought a gypsy setting would be
    appropriate.  I am just wondering if anyone has any good tips for
    doing this well.  i have already stuffed it up once! any advice would
    be much appreciated. 

Cheers
