Hi Linda,

>     best adhesive to use when attaching silver to stones 

    If glue must be used, then a two part epoxy seems the way to go. A
    clear type that will not yellow with age being the best type,
    although obviously the aim would be to not have any of the glue
    showing. 

    Yay, I've just noticed you're in the UK!!! Where do you live? I'm in
    Preston. 

    Have you thought of taking the first tentative steps into
    fabricating bezels, etc using a torch? It's great fun and very
    addictive and there's lots of great advice and help on this forum.
