Custom Platinum ring strength

[diamondjane]

I''m planning on having a custom setting made; center stone and two baguettes. My jeweler is tells me he uses CAD software to design the ring. I approve computer drawings.

From there a wax mold is made. He then makes the platinum ring via mold.

My question: Will the prongs which hold in the stone be as stronger this way? Or is it better to have a platinum setting made by hand?

Thanks.

Diamondjane:

It seems to me that this whole ring will be made by hand if it is being caste from a wax. If you are using a reputable jewler, you should have no problem with the prongs.
