    Being a jeweler for 23 years I have tried many things, including
    holding rings in my fingers.  A trick that I learned from my
    father who was a true old style master jeweler.  Not once have I
    burned my fingers and not once have I cracked a stone this way. 
    I also believe that a heat shield on heavier pieces is a must, I
    would never hold a heavy shank ring in my fingers.    I also
    believe that we all need to realize that there are as many
    different techniques as there are opinions, and if people stop
    asking questions or stating their opinions for fear of being
    ridiculous, stupid and dangerous there might not be much sharing
    going on.
