Dale,

    RUN don't walk as far away and as fast as you can. Throw your
    competitors some repeat liability jobs. Or sell her a proper setting.
    Don't even think about solder on stone points, solder shrinks when it
    solidifies. Diamonds don't shrink as much. Usual practice is to have
    the very points in air, defiantly not imbedded in solder. A lesson I
    learned long ago in the hard (but very permanent) way.
