I did this a while back and got new pics today to list it in my store. This is the biggest and best gemmy red cell dino I have seen. I used argentium silver to fuse the bits on the side, hammered them out and wrapped it up. The stone is 45x25mm.

LOL!!! Yes I'm weird. Mostly, though, I just let the stone dictate what I do.

Just takes practice, is all.

Very unique idea for holding the stone in place. did you make those little keepers that are wired in?

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
