Hello,

    I was wondering if there are those of you out there who are
    established in this trade (and making a fair living) who started out
    on a shoe string budget that wouldn't mind sharing your story. You
    see right now i am at a juncture in my career to where I'm pretty
    committed to doing my own thing. I have worked for the big chains
    and the ma and pop stores as a bench jeweler for about 13 years now
    and don't think i can take working for other people much longer.
    Actually the thought of being my own boss is what really gets me up
    in the mornings. I realize that owning your own business is not all
    fun and games but it has to be better than having people who have
    never made or repaired a piece of jewelery tell you how to do it and
    being micro managed. sorry for the partial rant, but i would love to
    hear some success stories. 

Thanks William
