When i knocked it out i could see one of them fairly clearly. It looked GOOD. I used AlO2 to devest. Glass beads next time.
I'm going to try a ring for the wife. Maybe tomorrow if i get chance. Love learning new stuff, just time gets in the way.....and computer games. Yes i am a nerd.
Glass beads may bring back some of the lost shine. Good trick I found when I overly enthusiastic ally devested my first UCLA and needed to reshine the interface at one spot.
Something I'm remembering also is a jeweler told me that I'd need a "wetting agent" for the stone when I looked into doing it. Flippercentral was in jewelry, maybe you could get some help via PM?
Nerds unite! Me too. Aside from my first Radio Shack computer running a motorola 68000 series cpu i've only ever owned 2 computers I didn't build, laptops both. For some reason I keep replaying DeusEx over and over trying to get through full stealth or minimal equipment or every pickup etc. My real weakness is classic console games and component level electronics.
