Hi Bob,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your question cannot be answered without the required images. The below should help you:

and: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=42199

http://www.postimg.com is recommended. Embedded images get a far greater response than just posting links.

Hi Tosten,

Always better to wait for the images.

An old saying: 'Many a slip between cup and lip'

And we may not get to see such marks.
