Bezel-Setting Tutorial

Step 15 Place the stone in the bezel

Once all soldering and clean-up has been completed, place the stone in the bezel. Make sure the stone sits completely flat in the bezel, and does not rock.

use a little bit of dental floss dropped behind the stone as you put it into the bezel; in case the stone needs to be removed or the bezel adjusted; otherwise, it's very difficult to 'pop' your stone out as it can get wedged inside the bezel setting... if you need, you can tug at the stone with the dental floss to get it out... once it's setup correctly you can snip the floss...

If the bottom of the cab isn't exactly flat and wants to rock around, I use just a tiny pinch of saw dust to fill in the gap so it'll stay still. :)
