    I very much agree with the person who stated that the biggest
    problem they see from designers is drawing to scale. When someone
    sends me a scketch they need to remember that this is my blueprint
    for making a piece of jewelry. It is my job to be as true as possible
    to the sketch. If what was sent to me is not done to scale with the
    stones that were sent to make it out of then what gets sent back to
    the designer can look quite different from what they wanted. This
    leads to arguments about who did what incorrectly, and who is going
    to pay for re-doing it. To prevent the fight I have to spend a great
    deal of my time talking on the phone and re-designing the piece. The
    answer that has been suggested and I think has great merit is to
    charge for this time to make the corrections to the design. A design
    consultation fee?
