those are the rendering from the jeweler, so if it don't we don't pay.

hell he would not even take a deposit.

but yeah we were looking fro a very simple solitaire so makes it easy, tho means was harder to find right stone.

I spent a little more, 5-10% to go though a jeweler, only as they have a guarantee, ie when it arrives if I'm unhappy with it I can decline it.

as for tiffanies, the one we wanted there was close to 30K.....said jeweler is doing same setting in platinum for around 1/3 the price.

thats a huge price difference, was the stone same quality & size?

tony looks nice man.

this is the one we saw that was $18k

that's crazy saving, good job brah guessing its a sizeable diamond if it was almost 30k @ tiffanys! thats like 1.5-2ct territory isn't it?

pays to shop around with such big ticket items.

Nice Alex, but yeah wouldn't pay that at Tiffany's LOL

In regards to the quality of diamonds, the cut is the most important. This determines the brightness or amount of light reflected back in a diamond.

In regards to colour G/H/I I doubt you'd be able to tell the difference to a D/E/F. As with clarity si2 or vs2 should be sufficient. As long as the inclusions are not visible to the naked eye.

A 1 carat, IF, D colour would be say $15,000

A 1 carat, Si2, H colour would be say $6,000

And to the general public under a naked eye you wouldn't be able to tell the difference

That doesn't sound right man like I said 18k was what we got quoted forget specs might have been an E for 18k haven't seen any 1cts for $30k

A 1 carat, D, IF, excellent cut diamond could easily cost $30-50k plus

All depends on the specs

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
