    to all my peeps..lol, 

    just wanted to share my moissanite story...fabricated a eng ring
    just this  last week ( for my little brother no less)  using
    moissanite...6mm  round in the center 4 prong gypsy setting with a
    total of 32- 1.75mm  round plate set along the sides right up the
    prongs with a chatham emerald set  in the top of each prong..the
    moissanite was no problem to set...looks  awesome..the only thing
    that put a scare into me (and the info i found did warn  me about)
    was that i needed to solder somewhat close to the side stones and
    they  turn bright yellow when heated...when they cooled down they
    were fine again...my  feeling on using these products is that if the
    person wearing them wants to  share the info with others that's
    fine...but if not, then let people think what  they want....i've
    always said that if the person wearing the item can pull it  off
    with class, then more power to them.....also just want to say thanks
    for the  great sense of community i feel from you all
