Hratch,

    I tried working with 950 palladium for one year and then gave it up.
    I was never truly happy with any of the results I was getting. I
    think it is a material that needs a real manufacturer's type of
    working conditions in order to produce satisfactory results. As a
    smaller shop I couldn't get the cleanliness?? or whatever it was
    that was necessary to get it to come out as I wanted it to. Went back
    to hustling the platinum and 18k palladium white gold instead.
