Hi Helen,

    I prefer to have a piece all "ready to go" before setting a stone in
    it, therefore no worry about whether it can go into the ultrasonic.
    It's already as shiny as it will be, then I carefully set the stone
    (sometimes using masking tape to protect metal areas next to the
    bezel). Now, slip-ups do happen, and then perhaps a little touching
    up could be necessary, but I suppose if that was an issue, and it
    was a stone that couldn't go into the ultrasonic, I'd do my best
    without it. 

    By the way, you have certainly been working hard at your bench all
    of these months, I've really been impressed with your vigor, when
    will we get to see some of your latest creations? :-)
