That's the biggest ring I've ever seen weight wise... And I thought the 15dwt of 14k was huge... (It was like a size 7ish)

Super nice... My advice is to find a good paying jeweler and sell them a couple at a time / bit by bit and make a lot more money.

Nice hunting OBN, what you switch to a PI unit?

Did you try that connector I texted you about?
Mine has been working great, no problems at all so far.

It's nice to see you finally getting the time to do what you love. I have a feeling 2015 will harbor no less then the same results or more. Happy Holidays!
