Hi David, 

    How very very kind of you to send me such detailed informationon
    flush setting stones. I particularly like the idea of soldering on
    the bezel. After reading all the posts, I have decided to do a lot
    of practicing on cast silver, before I attempt working with the gold,
    and will use some inexpensive, square, and oblong cut stones--first
    using the bezel method you described, and then when I master geting
    the seats right, I will move on to flush settings. 

    When I feel comfortable, and really get to understanding the process,
    I will switch to gold---using l8K bezels, and then finally will move
    on to making a flush setting. 

    Thanks again to all who have so generously offered suggestions. 

Alma
