Eli5: can someone please explain how resizing a ring works? If my engagement ring has (for example) 10 diamonds around the band, and I need the band smaller…..how do they keep all the 10 diamonds on with the right spacing?! Same with making the ring bigger?? Thanks!

Usually the diamonds don’t go all the way around the band. They stop somewhere on the sides since if they’re on the underside where your finger makes contact with things they can easily get damaged and fall out. Also no one can see them so they’re a waste of money.
So usually they expand/shrink the underside of the band to fit. If they’re drastically enlarging it they might add another diamond or two.
Also those small stones are relatively inexpensive. The main stone is what you’re really paying for.
