Daniel, both ways. Sometimes I have an idea before I start cutting rocks, sometimes after. Sometimes I make one cab and then design settings and add more cabs (that I cut especially for that particular design).
Adrian, that sounds nice. We must do that. I have here a couple good areas where we can search for rocks and I know that in Romania there is also some very interesting places for instance Southern Apuseni Mountains. So, Serbia and Romania. By the way - good luck tonight in match with Netherlands.
KD, you are guessing right. She is getting tons of ice cream. She now has a good excuse for ice cream. And she is using it. ;D I must say that she is much better now. She eats well and look frisky, now. I am very happy for it. All that trouble was worth it.
Agategrrrl, I hope you are right. I intend to try to make some money out of it. A soon as I finish my thesis.
Gemni, it already lead to several new finds. I hope it is going to lead to much more. Main purpose of thesis is just that.

Your cabbing and silver smithing are both top notch. They are all works of art.

Zoran, I've got to say you make some of the nicest bezel settings I've ever seen. They are so nice and EVEN! You really inspire me. I hope I can take a jewelry smithing class this year.
