I'm having a go at setting some stones for the first time, and was just wondering about a couple of things. They are probably stupid questions but there we go! 
1. Will an octagon cut stone fit an emerald setting? (with no change in measurements)
And 2. I have a round stone with the awkward size of about 6.7mm and for some reason I can only find settings for 6-6.5, 6.5 or just 7mm stones. Would I be able to fit it in a slightly smaller/bigger setting? I know there is room for a couple of mm's, but I don't know if it's better to go a bit bigger or smaller.
Thanks in advance.
