Thanks for the comments, I bought a used Graves Mark 4, and taught myself using instruction books. I have fun. Nick

Beautiful stones! Thanks for sharing. We just bought a used faceting machine and are currently reading all of the literature to familiarize ourselves before we start on our first stone.

Hey Nick: Very nice job. Glad to know there are other faceters on here. Not as hard as you thought it was; was it? I use the same machine. Pretty use to the quartz's, so purchased some garnets, and tourmaline to try this winter. My first attempt at topaz was a tragedy. Keep the pictures coming, love to see others work. Timothy
