[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 10406959, member: 22"]To be fair, I'd forgotten all about it :D No one claimed it, so on your prompt I got it out and put it on my desk. With the setting, it weighs 0.5 grams, so if I can get the setting off, anything over 0.2 grams is 1 carat. I put it between some small pincers and tried to prise the setting away. Without warning, it flew off towards the wall and vanished.:eek: It was a good excuse to clear and tidy up my messy desk, and then I found it right in front of me, 3 inches from where it had flown off:D Its pretty well stuck in the setting and maybe cemented too. Tomorrow I may get a Dremmell cutter on it.:cool:[/QUOTE]
