Around 2000. My wife was getting a large rock cut in half by a local lapidary and while she was waiting he showed her how to cab.
On a subsequent visit he showed me how to cab. He sold me some used equipment; a stardiamond machine with worn 80 and 220 galaxy wheels , a slab saw that was cooled with a wet sponge, a belt sander with worn 400 grit sandpaper that was used with a spray bottle, an alcohol lamp, dop wax and tin oxide.
My wife had a recent degree in studio art. She designed the cabs for me and made them large because she questioned my technical skill and used inexpensive material. This was the results:
I wasn't happy with the frequent undercutting and bought a genie in 2002. The stardiamond machine turned out to be beneficial after I reconfigured it with five 8 inch diamond wheels
