    Ok, some might think I'm a bit strange for looking at this this way
    but I always found it odd that people will call an item of jewelry a
    "piece". At first I thought, what, is it a piece of a puzzle or
    something? 

    As ofr jewelry making a statement, it certainly does. It's a
    statement of someone's bank account or lakc thereof after buying the
    ring or pendant! 

    I have a saying when it comes to benchwork and it is just as
    important as Murphy's Law. It is the law of leave well enought alone.
    Sometimes when we are on the bench we try to go the extra mile to
    make that "piece" superb. Sometimes, that's when things go wrong and
    we either have to start over or start eating crow. 

    Thanks for reading my rant, 

Rene Howard
