      Thanks! The one celtic shoulder took me about 2 hours to complete, and 
the rest was fairly simple.

      Well, there is no term really, apart from on the left ring posted, it 
would be called a 'bar', or if there's two per shoulder, it would be 
'double-bar'. On the right ring, one could also file two grooves, but the 
first image I posted is also viable.

abysmally. I just can't get photons right. :/

instead of the other way 'round!  :o)

   Looking forward to those pearls!
