I sold another MH cabochon and before shipping I decided to take a better picture and send it to the buyer. The picture showed a 1mm fracture near the tip and then either a healed or partially healed continuation of the fracture running roughly parallel to the edge.
I offered a refund, credit or replacement, but the buyer wants the cab fixed and is willing to wait. My left thumb is hurting. It wasn't injured and I'll see the doctor on Friday. I marked the back of the cab for the recut.
What is going to happen is I'll make a few passes on the wheel and my wife will review the shape. She has a very critical eye and will have me keep making adjustments until it is perfect. She use to do that all the time when I was starting out. The Blue Biggs I posted on the general rocks board has one side slightly higher on the right than the left. It was cut over 10 years ago and put in a display box. She had me deactivate the listing so I could make it perfect.
