Thank you John and Doc,

    Before starting to design and make jewellery I was designing gardens
    and I've used the square even if it doesn't exist in nature. I'm
    also now easily setting princess cuts in bezels I've made. I've made
    the mistakes and learned a lot for that type of setting. I need to
    learn to prong set now (starting with rounds of course).
